Hi, can anyone give me information on any part-time/weekend/week based guitar making courses in the UK? I live in the East Lothian area of Scotland and would like to arrange for my husband to go on a course to get him started on making his own guitar. The only courses I can find are full time college based and this really isn't a possibility.

Thanks in advance for any information.

You could try here www.anniesland.ac.uk/courses/pt.aspx?&F=M
Its in Glasgow, so fairly close.

Thanks, I'll have a look at their site.

My son is on his second year on the full time course there. He is doing very well and has continued to impress me with the level of learning and skill he has obtained. I know that William kelday is one of the tutors there, top man!! last year he built a flat top acoustic but this year he is working on a loar F5 mandolin. aside this he is getting all the theory and some playing tuition into the bargain. It has to be one of the best courses in the UK.

The full time course at Anniesland college is fantastic. However, they also run a night class on a Thursday which I believe is excellent too.

Hi,
My 20 yr old son currently works in the guitar dept of a large music shop on the South Coast,but would like to gain some qualifications.
We were wondering if anyone knows of day release courses in London or SE England in guitar /instrument making/repair that he could take. We have not so far been able to find anything suitable.
Thanks for your help
