I’ve been patron of the Luthier Shoppe since 1992. As a professional musician and studio owner I can say that when it comes to instruments and music production gear Mark’s knowledge and advice and repair skills are unparalleled.

I put a crack in my beautiful mahogany Martin acoustic guitar. Mark did a fabulous job on the repair!! Although I hope something like that doesn’t happen again, I definitely know where I would go to get it fixed!!

If I remember correctly, Dimebag Darrell Abbott took his guitar here many many years ago to have it worked on for the show they played with Skid Row back in the day. Nuff said. He knows what he's doing and does it right and doesn't rip you off. I would love to be an apprentice just to absorb some of his wealth of knowledge.

I had 3 guitars repaired and restrung. He is very nice and knowledgeable, and time efficient. He had them done within a week's time.

Fantastic work on my bass VI at a reasonable price, and good guitar n*** conversation to boot! Mark is skilled and knowledgeable. I'll be bringing him my business again!

There arent too many old school guys like Mark left around who have so much knowledge and experience, they dont even fathom just how much they have...Mark will gladly be giving you some insight into a question you have and before you know it he is talking about a Brownface sounding amp that he worked on that was owned by Kieth Richards or doing sound back in the day for Waylon Jennings, or how cool Hubert Sumlin's old car was and the sound that comes from his fingertips ...all while just continuing talking while you are realizing you are hearing stories that can only be passed on like this and Mark doesn't even realize just how cool all this is... he's just talking away to help answer your question you asked and now have every detail of how and why and now who and where.He gets the job done better than you even know how you want or need it done.He has worked on a few of my amps and even guitars and you'll have tone that you never even knew you could acquire yourself.Let him do all you need done regarding guitar, amp, pedals, sound and I'm sure much more than I'm even aware of.Great guy, great service, cool shop and gear, and I guarantee can answer any question you have!

I drive two hours to Springfield to have Mark work on my gear and it's totally worth it. He's a consummate pro, has reasonable rates and does mods that other techs wouldn't touch. He's fixed several of my beloved amps, electric guitars and acoustics. Top notch.

They did a great job with my strat. Low action, perfect intonation, plays like a dream. You can trust that your guitars are in good hands at the Luthier Shop.

Mark always takes great care of my Gibson acoustics when I take them in. He is always kind and caring. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thank you!
