Artists Testimonials
Thoughts From Artists In the Know
Throughout my career as a luthier, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and working with a diverse range of musicians—locally,nationally, and internationally. Several of these artists have become valued endorsers of my work, and I’m proud to have built instruments that support their sound and style. Here are testimonials from just some of the incredible musicians I’ve met along the way.

Mark Gilbert made my dreams reality when he designed my baritone guitar. It thunders like a bass, twangs like surf and growls like the blues. It puts an orchestra in my hands.

The Gilbert guitars I own and play have certainly caught the
attention of the audiences I have played for, of course due to their unique
and stunning looks, but also because they just sound phenomenal!
