  "I asked Doug to be my personal guitar tech..." says David Gilmour of Pink Floyd  

 

Mark Hargreaves

Mark Hargreaves

Mark has been a musician for about 25 years. A superb keyboard / piano player, bassist, guitarist and vocalist, Mark has featured in many bands playing both in the UK and around the world also recording both in his various home cubase and comercial studios.

Mark has commissioned Doug to build 5 bass guitars to date ranging from a Warrick style 4 string to a 5 string fretless complete with LED fret lights in the neck.

Mark has always rated the professionalism of Doug's work and on one bass in particular, you have to see the finish of the wood to really appreciate just what a wonderful instrument Doug has hand crafted.

Mark's latest addition is a Les Paul style guitar finished in an awesome sunburst and featuring two humbuckers and a Symour Duncan Cool Rails inbetween. Mark commissioned this guitar for use in his home studio.
