Here at MacKenzie & Marr Guitars we produce wonderful all-wood acoustic guitars. We only make one model “Tofino”- a Canadian Western red cedar top small jumbo - and our production is limited to a few hundred guitars a year so we sometimes (with apologies to Stuart McLean) refer to ourselves as “The World's Smallest Guitar Company”.
We're committed to playing our own tune because we think that's what it takes - to stand out in the crowd, to add real value to our instruments and to have our customers embrace us as friends.
For our first guitar we could have followed the herd – spruce top, rosewood back and sides, etc.... but does the world really need one more Martin D-28 “me too” knock-off? The MacKenzie & Marr “Tofino”, while paying tribute to the innovations of past masters with scalloped X- bracing and precision fitted neck, breaks with tradition in both body shape and wood choices.
Playing a cedar-top Tofino for the first time is a revelation. But it's not going to happen in a guitar store. The only two places you can buy a MacKenzie & Marr guitar are at the company and over the Internet. Slightly inconvenient – its true, but knocking out the costs of retail distribution shaves $600 to $1,000 off the price of our guitar.
So in a nutshell:
We're a small company producing a really great acoustic guitar at an almost affordable price. You can only buy our guitar over the Internet but, in the unlikely event you don't like it and send it back - we'll give you a full refund.
