M.J. Franks Guitars (USA)

I construct my instruments with the belief that fine, repeatable acoustics have everything to do with solid design, choice materials and exacting construction. I take particular care in the selection of materials and accept no compromise for their aesthetics and tonal superiority.

I am very fortunate to have formed lasting friendships with my customers, a good number of whom are professional musicians. I have also had the past privilege of serving for 5 years on the board of the Association of String Instrument Artisans (ASIA) through which I have formed relationships with many of the fine Luthiers, Inlay Artists and Materials Suppliers in the industry.
