M-tone Guitars
Cool guitars hand made by Matt Proctor in Portland, Oregon. M-tone guitars have sweet shapes and finishes, and use steel, brass, aluminum and bone instead of plastic because real materials make real tone. info@m-tone.com

Ride this!
Coming soon: new “palomino” finish Stackpole. Honduran mahogany, new pickguard shape, same awesome kicking sound.
Video – Stackpole Smooth
Here’s Richard Moore tickling a beautiful alder Stackpole. No, this one’s not his – Richard already has a very custom mahogany M-tone, but you can’t blame a guy for wanting to try out more guitars.
Creamy New Stackpole
The finish on this fine new M-tone is based closely on the interior of Timmy, a well-loved 1960 VW bug. The Lollar Vintage Tweed pickups contributes to the vintage vibe. More info and photos on the For Sale page.
New M-tone fresh out of the shop
Silky smooth oiled alder Stackpole. Fast, articulate and fun as hell to play – hard to walk away from. Check out the details on the For Sale page.
Recharging
Recharge often: if the weather is gray and your music is run down and dragging, go out, see a good show and then buy a new guitar.
