Mark has very quickly become a favourite guitar player of mine not just for his playing ability but how genuine and humble he is as a person. A truly inspirational guitarist and when I learn anything he writes my jaw drops. I just learnt my sacrifice and it is so god dam unique without being so technical. Love your work Mark.

Mark is an all-time guitar great when it comes to riffs, melody, songwriting, and being an integral part of every project he's ever down. From down tuned metal riffs to singing Sinatra and doing it all well is something you never see.

I'm an OLD AF metalhead, who loves this guy because he simply able to embody everything my metalhead and heart love about guitar and metal music; as well as being entre to other music I'd not have heard, if not for his ability to spew melody. All that to say, hats off to Mark. Much respect (especially for the professionalism and work ethic).

Mark Tremonti is the Best! Love his guitar playing and song writing skills. Most of all I like how Humble and Grateful he is. I have toured and you meet a lot of D-bags. And most of them haven't done anything in the music industry. Mark has went diamond. Has Signature guitar and amps. Yet he is the nicest guy. Always has time to talk to his fans. Mark is a Great example for professionals to look too.

Mark is a huge guy, one of my favorite players of all time and also the guy made me a PRS player. Now as a fellow PRS artist, I have the enjoy of supporting him with more love and respect. His collaboration with PRS is so well and the products come out with unique sound, comfort and character is unmatched. I'm very glad to see the MT100, my style and environment doesn't allow me to have one but certainly I would dig that when it's possible. Thank you Mark, Paul, Bev, Travis and lastly, thank you PRS team.

Mark has consistently like a goddamn machine proven himself at each stage of his career surprised and proved everyone wrong. Honestly, with age he's only gotten frighteningly better. I consider him to be one of the greatest melody+riff writers of the past 20 years and this has become which was always present since Creed's debut but never put to the forefront until the seminal Altar Bridge debut came out 20 years ago. Kudos to PRS for seeing the man is generational talent. I adore Mark and I hope the newer generation of guitarists and music fans appreciate an artist who has been unfairly relegated to the negative connotations of Creed. Mark has been an incredible influence on melody writing for me. Much respect. :)

@@mikeomatic9905 They went through several design changes. Used to have a wrap around bridge with dot inlays, then bird inlays, then it looks like they settled on the bird inlays with the PRS trem. I'm looking at used ones and most of them have the wrap around bridge. I may pick one of those up. I think if you find one with the "Tremonti" 12th fret, it's one of the earliest.

I've never heard a guitarist say their signature is their favorite instrument. That is high praise from an artist I respect that could buy any guitar on the market. My first guitar was a Korean PRS Tremonti and I've bought more guitars since then (Gibson Les Paul and others) and I always go back to my PRS Tremonti. It is so well made and it sounds amazing with the stock pickups. I haven't swapped out anything except the tuners (for locking tuners). When I am in the market to spend a lot of money on my end-game guitar, it will absolutely be a PRS.

But there is nothing else like it on the market (25.5" scale maple neck, wraparound stop tail bridge, single cut mahogany body, 2x volume and tone controls) and I am a PRS fan boy, so I am very thankful to have the option and luxury to make this one exception.
