Now Neal Moser has taken his dream one step further by offering personal and class instruction on how to build the guitars of your dreams. Space is limited for each of the classes to insure that the attendees receive the proper experience and knowledge of guitar luthiery.
The “Garage Guitar Building 101” two week seminar we will be teaching the basics of bolt-on neck guitar building. For those who have always wanted to build their own guitar, this seminar will teach you what you need to know. There are many different levels of guitar building. Some just want to be able to assemble a “kit guitar”, while others want to be able to build a guitar from scratch. In “Garage Guitar Building 101”, we will teach you both.
In the ” Custom Neck-through Guitar Building ” two week seminar we will be teaching the advanced methods of neck-through guitar building. We will also instruct in the use of basic small production guitar building power tools such as band saws/re-saws, jointers, surface planers and hand routers. After this seminar the students will have the knowledge to build a neck-through guitar in their shop using the least amount of power tools possible. What they can build will only be limited to their own personal imagination and skill level.
Each two week seminar will host 2 to 4 students. Classes will be held between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM Monday through Thursday. For students attending from outside the local area, “dorm” style housing is available at no extra charge.
In additional to the two week seminars, we are also offering single weekend classes on Saturday and Sundays in fret work and final setup. It will be open to up to 4 students per weekend. Personal “one on one” weekends for those who already build guitars but have specific questions about specific areas of guitar building are also available.
Pricing for the two week seminars is $1500 per student. Pricing for the weekend class is $500 per student. Pricing for 'one on one” weekends is $700
