DO I NEED ANY PREVIOUS WOODWORKING SKILLS?

No previous woodworking experience is necessary, although taking a grade 9 or 10 woodworking course in their home school will give you a beneficial skill set.

IS OUT-OF-ZONE TRANSPORTATION AVAILABLE?

Yes. Please see the application section and communicate your intentions with your home school student services.

WHAT KIND OF GUITAR CAN I MAKE?

Depending on your past experience, keen interest and motivation most instruments are possible.

A brief guitar building profile will be discussed with the teacher in order to determine a successful path. It’s more important to be successful in building your first instrument than to be frustrated in a build that is beyond your abilities or desire.
