Marquis
It's not just an instrument; it's a work of art. Pamper it.
If it's one thing we know, it's finely crafted and vintage instruments. We created our Marquis line to pamper your guitar by adding a soft silk wrap to the ball ends which prevent wear and tear on the bridge and end plate as you play. Our silk wrap puts a comforting layer of protection in place every time you change your strings.
