MIRC Refurbished Guitars
-
Epiphone 1962 ES-335 Reissue Sixties Cherry
“Absolutely BEAUTIFUL guitar! The mods installed by FGW are exactly what the guitar needed to put it in the upper echelon category and at a great price! Plays and sounds amazing, action was perfect as received, and would never know it was a refurbed guitar if they hadn't said so. High props to FGW! Keep killing it with the modded guitars!”

Guthrie Govan Signature MJ San Dimas SD24 CM
“This guitar ranks among the best electric guitars available. As the signature guitar of one of the most discriminating and technically accomplished tone masters to ever weave rich tapestries of post-Hendrix, trans-VanHalen vortices, it does not disappoint. It arrived totally ready to gig and fully setup straight out of the box. Kudos to the techs and luthiers at Franklin Guitar Works for their expertise and professionalism. It is a phenomenon in and of itself which invites one to rise to the occasion and run nimble fingers all the way up its 24 frets.”

Hermes-6VT-Black-Sparkle
“This guitar is quality beyond its price point. The fret work is impeccable with no buzz with low action. Bends are like butter. The finish is stunning with the sparkle. Pickups roar and also have that quack when necessary. I love this guitar.”

Instruments saved from ending up in a landfills every single year
MIRC LLC was started to address a critical gap in the guitar industry: manufacturers had no efficient or brand-safe way to deal with returns, distressed inventory, or production issues, which occur in the normal course of manufacturing. These issues can potentially damage brand reputation, tie up capital or create waste and missed opportunities.
By combining expertise in technical guitar repair including state-of-the-art paint capabilities, logistics, and alternative sales channel opportunities, MIRC is a professional solution that turns these problems into revenue streams.
