About Van Dam Guitars

Van Dam Guitars is run by the luthier Mark Van Dam and is in Orange County, California. Van Dam Guitars is all about making guitars that sound, feel, and look great. We like clean, modern shapes, classic and modern tones, great feeling necks, quality electronics and hardware, and beautiful woods.

Van Dam Guitars are made with excellent tone woods. We love Fralin pickups, whether they are single coil, P90, or Humbuckers, we love them all. Our finishes are sometimes clear, transparent, or solid. We like locking tuners, bone or Graph Tech Tusq nuts, various neck woods and fingerboard woods. All our materials are used to enhance the tone, feel, and sonic quality of our instruments. Get one, we think you’ll love it, and then want another.

These guitars are built by a hard working and experienced craftsman who loves playing the guitar and enjoys finding great tones.We take pride in our available guitars when we have them, but also are happy to build custom guitars when requested.
