Mario Martin guitars are hand built in Murfreesboro, TN just 40 minutes down the road from us! Undertaking the entire build process from cutting the body blank to spraying the final touch of nitro, Mario Martin achieves a level of guitar making well beyond partscaster builders who may look alike on the surface. These guys maintain one of the best collections of tonewoods around, and every neck/body/pickup combination is chosen carefully to amplify the personality of the guitar as a whole. Whether you crave an S-style guitar straight out of 1958 or the unique Tele-Strat mashup that is the Honcho, we are confident you’ll find what you’re looking for in a Mario Martin.

How Does It Play?

Mario is famous for his wide variety of neck shape options. His Chunky C carve is as described and is fat in the best way possible. It reminds me of something you’d find on a Master Built Strat, but I think even that is selling it short. The string action measures just 4/64” at the 12^th fret across all strings. The frets are beautifully dressed and polished from end to end.

Weight: 6lb .06oz

The Mario Martin Deluxe padded gigbag is included.
