Building an Electric Guitar

Build Your Own Guitar in 10 Lessons: A Unique Experience in The Hague

Have you ever dreamed of building your own guitar, from a plank to a beautiful end result? With this course, that dream becomes reality. Under the guidance of a real guitar specialist, you will build your own classic Telecaster step by step. Everything is made by hand - from the neck to the body, from placing the elements to setting the frets and tuning pegs. No kit, but pure craftsmanship!

Building a guitar is of course not easy, but that is exactly why this course exists. You will have an experienced teacher at your side who will help you every step of the way. Whether you have questions about shaping the neck, attaching the body, sawing, sanding or the electronics; you are not alone.

In 9 evenings you will work on your own guitar. We ensure that each step is given sufficient time and that there is room for questions and personal guidance. During the lessons we work in small groups, so that everyone can work well on the different parts of the guitar. We alternate between shaping the body, making the neck and preparing the fretboard. This way everyone works on their own instrument at their own pace.

Course Objectives and Extras

This course is all about having fun and learning something new. It doesn't matter if your guitar isn't perfect; it's about the process and the experience. After the course, you'll have enough knowledge to continue on your own guitar projects at home.

For those who want to perfect their guitar even further, apply colors or make other personal adjustments, optional meetings are organized. These extra sessions are outside the official course, but do offer the opportunity to completely personalize your guitar.

Everything is included – from wood to hardware and electronics.
