He's mentioned it comes directly from Alaska and he processes the wood himself...I am SO excited to hear how it sounds.

Marc’s work is very clean, which was evident in all the guitars in the shop. He’s a pretty cool guy as well. I got to play his personal guitar and can see why you have multiple builds from Marc. I also see why many people on the AGF take time to visit with their luthier throughout the build when possible, its a very cathartic experience. As a tool guy, this visit was a double bonus … lol
Looking forward to hearing you play your guitar, once you have receive it.

Ah, great news! I appreciate the response...I'm extremely jealous you are capable of just stopping by! I'm sure the body is very lively with the torrified top. Marc is really cool and down to earth, one of the main reasons I keep ordering with him, this likely won't be the last if I'm being honest. His fit and finish is definitely up there among the best. I would've loved to play his Sitka/Braz Model M. Have a great weekend
