My 18" Archtop is for the guitarist who wants the best of everything. The guitar's tone is powerful yet delicate with either fingers or a pick.The attack can be penetrating and forceful or elegant, bordering on sublime.
My wood selection is breathtaking and fit and finish are flawless. This guitar is for those who won't compromise on gifts for themselves as well as for musicians who need to make a bold statement. My 18" Archtop is a true luxury for those who acquire one, and yet, a necessity for those who have played one.
Of course, all joints are hand planed and glued with hot hide glue. All complex joinery is chalk fit and every aspect of the guitar has been designed for many lifetimes of satisfaction and beauty.

Perfect guitars and delighted customers are my passion. All Archtops are available in 16", 17", and 18" widths and with the following details.
I build each Archtop to be the Ferrari of Archtop guitars. When you play a Marchione Archtop, you'll find that playability, acoustic sound, and beauty are my focus. I use the highest grade AAAAA Engelmann Spruce top, highly figured maple back and sides, and African Ebony fingerboard in addition to all wood binding and mother-of-pearl fingerboard inlays to make a majestic statement.
I guarantee materials and workmanship for the life of the instrument to the original owner.
