Mark spoke in non technical terms and pretty much left things up to me
except the EMG's were his choice.
I also built a white Strat ,refretted all of his stuff and did a lot of
pickup changing. Last month I built him a Tweed Twin which he is using with
the Hill billys stuff. He currently endorses Pensa, they are the best of
friends, so I dont know his current arsenal but I understand he still uses
the old faithful carve top I made. I left Pensa in 91.
If there is something specific you can email me.
