Lutherie Classes

I offer small group and private classes on various lutherie topics. Scheduling is based on demand so please let me know what you are interested in and we'll go from there.

Setups

Everything you need to keep your guitar or bass playing the way you like it day in and day out. Replace timidity and confusion with knowledge and confidence so you can assess your own instruments and make your own adjustments whenever they need.
Class includes theoretical discussion, demonstrations, and hands-on practice. Bring your own instrument that needs adjustment and leave the class with a perfectly playing guitar that you setup!

​

3 Hours

Pickups

A theoretical discussion and demonstration of how pickups work, how they're made, how they vary, and how they can be used in different instruments to achieve different tones. Includes a live pickup winding demo.

2 Hours

Electronics

Learn how a potentiometer works, how a switch works, how a jack is wired. How does a tone knob actually work? After we cover the common components, we'll look at various ways of wiring and modding common guitar circuits.
