I guess like most other full time builders I am hooked on building guitars. I get a great sense of achievement in creating a musical instrument from scratch.
Acoustic, flattop, archtop acoustic & electric, electric semi-hollow body guitars.
The most rewarding aspect is a satisfied customer and hearing my guitars played by talented players. Over the years I have built or repaired instruments for many known musicians which have included: Aerosmith, America, Howard Alden, Jackson Browne, Credence Clearwater Revival, Duran Duran, Herb Ellis, Pink Floyd, John Fogerty, Bruce Forman, Peter Frampton, Frank Gambale, GIT students and instructors, David Alan Grier, the Hard Rock Cafes, Jacksons, Bon Jovi, Leo Kottke, Yngwie Malmsteen, Paul McCartney, Jeff Meyer, Hall and Oates, John Porter, Terje Rypdahl, Louie Shelton, Rod Stewart, Tiny Tim, U2 and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Besides building custom guitars, Mark Lacey also offers a variety of restoration services on all types of vintage guitars.
He has extensive experience in this area and welcomes your inquires.
