You've got 2 weeks to do it. From Scratch. Are you up for it?
I've done some crazy things in the past. Like the 12 day acoustic guitar class, from scratch. Including lacquer and setting up and playing at the end. Not from a kit. From rough wood. So, I know it can be done. Back in 2019, we decided to accomodate some of the people out there who can't take 3 or 5 weeks off from work, but really want to get into the nitty gritty and see what is possible.
What to expect:
When you get here, it's going to be kind of like a guitar building version of the popular TV show "Survivor". You will be given the appropriate templates to use for the construction of a Telecaster style guitar. (If you give me enough time, I may accomodate your wishes and let you build a P/J bass or Strat/Jag, but you gotta let me know at least a month ahead of time). I'll have all the wood ready, nothing cut. We'll rough out the body, trim, router, file, sand, seal, lacquer, make the neck from scratch, no pre-fab junk here.
This class covers standard Fender style construction, little deviation from stock Fender style guitars, but tons of space for customization and hotrodding! The price for the 2 week Telecaster class is $2495, plus taxes. Includes maple neck, fretboard, ash, alder or basswood body blank, fretwire, trussrod, nut, fretboard dots, ferrules, control plate, pots, switch, capacitor, neck plate and screws, tuition, tools and shop space!
You are responsible to bring: tuning machines, pickups, pickguard, strings and bridge!
This is going to be a good 2 weeks.
If you are interested, please send me a message or call/text: 204-894-3834
Upcoming Dates: Posted on the Calendar Page
If you would like to build a P Bass, I will let you.
