2002 SJ Baritone - Englemann/Padouk (ex-Don Ross, hi Tony )
2015 M - Lutz/Brazilian
2018 SJ - Sitka/Padouk (1st commission with Marc)

...and as it happens I'm in discussions with Marc about a new build due in 2024 I can't speak highly enough about the man or his guitars. In my experience, they all have great fundamental response with strong bass and great clarity. All the ones I've handled have excelled in altered tunings. He's been building for going on 50 years now and takes great pride in doing everything by hand.
Thank you Ryan. I hope to be able to check out the one I am looking at in the next couple of weeks.
