Welcome to the "Anatomy of a Blanchard" It is my hope to bring you visually through the wonderful process of commissioning a hand made acoustic guitar. From the careful selection of tone woods to the finish product. These pictures represent most of the work that goes into building the guitar. I play guitars crafted by Luthier Mark Blanchard of Blanchard Guitars. Mark's a gifted craftsman and together with his wife Kathy, known as "the Third hand to the Man" they work together with you, to insure your order. Everything from the model of guitar and selected tone woods, purfling detail, tuners, to the last detail it's all carefully noted and sent to you in a contract. I've been through the process twice and counting. Each time was thrilling and has deepened our friendship. Please check them out at...
