Hey Erik! We are currently working on a configurator for the website so you and pick and choose your options for a Mavis, see them with actual parts and buy guitars that way to get on the waitlist. Then you don’t have to wait around for one that may not be exactly what you want.
Is converting a lefty to a righty a big deal? That 699M has been for sale for weeks. Leave the volume knob where it is, replace the bridge and nut, and that beautiful guitar is sold in a matter of minutes. Then again, maybe someone wants to buy Paul McCartney a real cool Christmas present!
I see there is one yet for sale but the photo shows two different versions. How do I tell which is still available? I can't find a phone number either.
Watched closely all morning and only ever saw 8 of 10 get posted. Was hoping to get a crack at one of the dark cutaway models but never saw them go up. Maybe next time.

When will the next batch of the modest roll out? I’m assuming starting again in the new year!
Beautiful guitar. Love the headstock and colour. What is the wood and specs?
Someone please buy this Lefty so we can get a new crop of the Modest Mavis flowing!

If it wasn't for those pesky side dots we could!

What has happened to the drop-down window on the Modest Mavis option? It now list every guitar ever offered. I'm interested in buying one.
What are the woods on the current modest mavis? Thanks
Roasted maple top and neck, roasted basswood body.
Is that an ebony board on 719?
Got one right before volume knob became standard. Indispensable upgrade! Regret not waiting. Well worth the extra $100.
Hey John! Theres a cavity under the pickguard to make adding a knob afterwards possible for your local guy!
How to I get onto the mailing list for the modest Mavis guitars?
There’s no mailing list. You just have to look out on Instagram. That’s where Matt posts the drop of the week. Usually Monday mornings.
Hey Tim! Thats correct - every Monday (except for holidays) what we have is listed on the website at 10 AM EST.
Has anyone changed the strings without removing the plate the strings run through? What's the best way to change the strings?
Never mind. My tech bent the strings at the end and was able to get it done without too much difficulty.

Any chance of a left-hand version soon?
We can make ya one! We love lefties! Send us an email.
Looks like there is one now! #699
Case included?
Yes, I received mine yesterday with a tweed thermometer case.
The description says "no knobs" but there is one present on #658. Is that just a new feature you decided to add for "volume"?
Thank you very much.
Ok, i just received the #659 that I ordered Monday and mine has one knob and it works. So, I stand corrected.
It’s been a quiet upgrade to the Modest. I started noticing them a couple months ago. I think it’s a great addition.
Matt/Staff,
I see there is one yet for sale but the photo shows two different versions. How do I tell which is still available? I can't find a phone number either.
Thanks very much.
Click on the please select an option above add to chart and Modest Mavis # 658 will appear. Click on that and pictures of the model will be shown.
I just purchased this model 05/01/24, what is the cost of the guitar case.
Is it possible to use baritone strings in the Modest Mavis? if so do I need to adjust the nut or the intonation?
Are they available now?
The “sold out” is gone from the Modest Mavis page, but I haven’t seen any up for sale.
Many thanks.

Click the drop down menu and make a selection.

Update: They went up around 2pm, I snagged one, and 48 hours later it is in my lap and it is fabulous! Don’t give up, friends!
Thank you for the invite Matt. Didn't get a Modest Mavis this time - I will patiently await.
Could there ever be a green one?!
