Great service you can tell in less than 5 min this guy loves what he does. He does what he says, and is fair priced, I highly recommend

I took my sons cello to have the bridge fixed. The guy that we spoke with said there was 100 people in ahead of us, but he seem to get it down before our concert. Then I had to take it down to the violin maker in Claremont to have what he did fixed because he put the bridge on incorrectly and then didn't tune it correctly. He didn't adjust the tail right when my son went to play it before we left and tune it, the gentleman got very uneasy and started to yell at my son saying that he already had it tuned. It was 10 correctly. It was not tuned correctly, nor was the bridge put in incorrectly or was the right bridge put on it waste of money don't take your instruments there. read more

Just high class service and lessons. I haven't run across anyone who isn't satisfied with repair work or with their music lessons.

Marc fixed a violin my Mom passed down to me from her childhood. At some point in its life it had been used as a wall decoration and who knows what else. Marc brought it back to life and now my daughter will be using it for her violin lessons. I am so grateful he has the skills to restore this family heirloom to working condition, plus he's just an all around great guy & a pleasure to talk to! read more

Mark is a great teacher who goes the extra mile to make sure you totally understand what he is teaching. His scope of musical knowledge is quite impressive and he freely shares that knowledge. He has turned into a good friend too. And his sense of humor is off the charts! read more

We had a very disappointing and exasperating experience trying to get two violins repaired (new strings and bridges) and repairing/purchasing two bows. It took weeks. When I was finally called to pick them up, there were still no bows. (Which I could have had ordered and shipped to me at a much lower price and delivered long before the pick up date.) After leaving the shop, I found that one violin still needed repair. One of the strings wouldn't stay tightened - the tuning peg needed to have a new hole drilled. Ever had a grandparent, 90+ years old, say they were let down? If so, you would know how seriously disappointing this experience was. read more

Marc has repaired two guitars for me that had met their doom. One was a broken neck on a Martin acoustic. It now plays better than ever. He also fixed a mexican strat that I that wouldn't stay in tune. Now it plays like butter! Good dude, fair prices, quality work! What more can you ask for? read more

Marc is an awesome human being, I took guitar lessons from him for a short time before I ended up having to move, and I still haven't found another teacher in fear that they won't be up to Marc's standards. He's patient, encouraging and truly kind. Definitely an exceptional person, he'll teach you anything YOU want, every lesson I left feeling confident and loving my instrument more and more. If you're looking for lessons, he's your guy. I miss you Marc! I'll come visit you one day when I happen to be in the desert so I can show you what I've been learning. The only sad part about leaving the desert was losing you as a teacher. read more

What's worse a luthier who doesn't know what he's doing? Or one who does, has the knowledge and skill but just doesn't care? I drive 4 hours to bring my violin here after 4 months he finally finished- either a student did the repairs or this guy is a con artist. It sounds aweful there is excess glue that ran down on the outside of the ribs, the sound post had been replaced and improperly placed(even though the old sound post was perfect). The bridge had also been replaced (even though the old bridge was fine) and this new one is improperly placed as well. The top was damaged when being removed. Open seams I payed to have fixed ( the whole reason I took it to be worked on) weren't touched- the seams are still open. It needs to be repaired from the "repairs" they did. Sadly I'll have to let the luthiers I didn't trust repair this because the one I did trust completely screwed this up read more
