Mule

“Greetings Matt/Mule Team. I ordered my Mule in June 2019. There was a 9-12 month wait. Eight months later my build started on February 6,2020, it was completed on Feb 24th.  I received my Mule February 26,...

Let go.  We get in our own way when we approach the guitar with facts and figures and preconceived notions.   We think we like certain measurements and dislike others.   We 'would never ____' and "really like____'. But...

I'll be closing the wait list March 1st, and it will reopen April 2nd at 12 PM eastern time with a limited amount of spots.   We've gotten a ton of orders and I want to be able to provide accurate estimates for customers...

We make ‘em.

I’ll be closing the wait list March 1st. It will reopen with very limited quantities on the first Saturday of every month. Last time we did this it was difficult to get on the list so how’s the time to ensure a...

1000 connections, 1000 hands locked in grateful cooperative labor.  We've now made 1000 resonators, 400 Mavis, and 400 mulecasters. How many songs is that? How many stories and connections is that?   In 2009 I had almost...

We want to start feeling connected with your instrument as soon as it begins, so we send you progress pictures every major step of the way.
