MacMillan Guitars Hand crafted acoustic and electric guitars by Marty MacMillan. Based in Baltimore Maryland Est 2011

Marty MacMillan has been enthusiastic about guitars his entire life. In 2004 Marty completed training at the Bryan Galloup School of Lutherie in Michigan, earning his Masters Certificate in Lutherie. Following Galloup, Marty worked for two major guitar manufactures. His experience in manufacturing further defined his skills in all aspects of guitar construction. In 2012 Marty decided to make his dream come true and set out to launch his own handcrafted line of acoustic guitars, thus MacMillan Guitars was born. Simplistic and elegant in design, MacMillan Guitars are known for a low end punch that stays crisp without getting muddy, and clear distinct mids with crystal clean highs. Each guitar is completely handcrafted in Nashville, Tennessee using the finest FSC certified woods available. In addition to building and repairing guitars, Marty has been a professional musician since 2000, playing acoustic, electric, and pedal steel guitars.

Monday morning tech tip. It’s not always fret buzz you are hearing. A poorly shaped saddle will make your guitar sound like a sitar.

Recently finish this Mac T-style. Flame maple top, mahogany body. The Lollar P90’s are sounding killer through my Echoplex into the Vibroverb. The guitar is for sale, however I would like to be buried with my echoplex 🤣

The latest MacMillan Reserve Series.

Reserve guitars are commissioned, not selected.

Each instrument begins with a private consultation between the client and Marty MacMillan, where the guitar’s character, aesthetic, voice, and purpose are carefully defined. From there, every element of the instrument is considered as part of a singular design.

This D12 features a beautiful set of Brazilian Rosewood and an old growth German Spruce top. Brazilian Rosewood fretboard, bridge and headplate. Gold mother of Pearl inlays.
