WHAT THEY SAY…
What our customers think of our custom guitars?
“Fire breathing T-style guitar. Perfect for my style and shredding from the blues to rock. The beautiful finish is absolutely stunning.”
“I would like everyone to know that EM Guitars uses the best tonewoods for their guitars. The sound is rich and vibrant, and the playablility is unmatched. Evan makes unique, high-quality instruments.”
“I have no idea why someone would purchase a mass-produced, everybody has one, guitar from the local guitar store when you can have a custom build for about the same price. EM guitars are hand-crafted, unique designs that look great and play great as well. As a musician and song writer, I appreciate things that are unique and well made. I highly recommend E.M. Guitars!”
“These guitars are sublimely gorgeous, and my guitar has the most incredible tone and sustain. Perfect for my blues and rock playing. Extremely comfortable fretboard! You could never buy something this unique in a store. I highly recommend EM Guitars! These guitars really stand out on stage. You will love them and your audience will love seeing you rock out with an EM!”
“I’ve had the pleasure of owning 3 guitars made by Evan, and each one stands out in its own way. The attention to detail is clear – from the carefully selected woods and materials to the way every element fits together. It’s clear that a lot of thought and skill goes into each instrument. The feel of these guitars is fantastic. The necks are comfortable, and they sit just right when you play, making it easy to get into the music. Each instrument has a unique sound and character, making them a joy to play no matter the style.” “If you’re looking for a guitar that’s built well and has its own personality, I highly recommend checking out Evan’s work.”
Everything is perfect and I am glad I got a custom from Evan. Very accommodating and patient.
