Kit Guitar Build £500, two days. 

Ever wanted to build your own guitar but worried about getting it wrong?

This kit build course walks you through the entire process properly, from bare parts to a playable instrument, in a fully equipped workshop.

You’ll gain a real understanding of how guitars are constructed and set up — not just assemble parts.

You’ll cover:

• Kit inspection and preparation

• Staining the body

• Fret work

• Waxing and buffing the body

• Neck fitting and alignment

• Hardware installation

• Wiring basics

• Final setup and adjustment

• Troubleshooting common kit issues

By the end of the course:

• You’ll leave with a completed, playable guitar

• You’ll understand how and why it works

• You’ll have the confidence to work on future projects and a great guitar to use as a modding platform. 

​

What Makes These Courses Different

• Small group sizes

• Hands-on, supervised learning

• Real workshop environment

• No rushed schedules

• Honest, real-world approach

This is how guitar setup and repair is done outside of social media and shortcuts.
