TESTIMONIALS
"After playing the guitar for about 15-20 hours in the last month since I got my Gaiero Modified Dreadnought MDC model, I can honestly say its one of the finest fingerstyle guitars I’ve owned or played. I’ve been blessed to play some great instruments from some of the most prestigious builders on the planet and this Gaiero will hang with any at any price. Mark’s detailed and classy work shines as soon as you open the case and look it over. Right away you stop and just look at all the beautiful materials used, but once you play it you get just lost in the tone, and what started out as 15 minutes of playing turns into an hour quickly. The guitar is very responsive and the tone is super thick and full with everything (highs, mids, and lows) being big and the presence strongly enveloping the player. The tone is so good you find yourself rediscovering basic chords you’ve been playing for years. Mark was a pleasure to work with and I can’t say enough good things about his guitars!”

“Commissioning this guitar with Mark was a seamless and gratifying experience. I’ve owned guitars by many of today’s top luthiers and approached this build with a clear and specific vision. Mark absolutely nailed it. The photos speak for themselves. Tonally, this guitar has the trebles I’ve been looking for: thick and full. The mids are clear and distinct. The bass is balanced and lays down a strong foundation in the mix. I couldn’t be happier, and when I’m ready for another guitar, I won’t look anywhere else.”

“This OM from Mark Gaiero is exquisitely responsive and distinctly gorgeous. The volume and dynamic range are superb, and there’s great string-to-string balance. Mark has a keen sense of design and clear communication style. His guidance through the customization process helped bring to life the exact guitar I was hoping for. Playing this guitar is a great pleasure for me.”

“The beauty and craftsmanship of Mark’s guitars are what first drew me to his work. Now, as the proud owner of this Katalox and Swiss Spruce OMC, it’s the ease of playability and exceptional tonal quality I value most. With a rich bass, well-balanced mids, and sweet highs, the sound produced is crystal clear and powerful. Simply put, it's perfect.”
