Guitar Building Courses In Ireland
At Lloyd Edward Guitars in Roundwood, County Wicklow, we offer guitar building and guitar making courses in Ireland for people who want to learn the craft of building their own acoustic guitar by hand.
Working with wood, tools, and sound is a deeply rewarding process, and we believe it is something best learned in a calm, supportive guitar building workshop environment with personal guidance throughout every stage of the build.
Whether you are picking up tools for the first time or returning to a long held interest in woodworking, music, or lutherie, our guitar building courses are designed to guide you step by step through the process of creating your own instrument.
Students travel from across Ireland and abroad to attend our small workshop classes, where the focus is on learning carefully, understanding traditional guitar making techniques, and enjoying the process rather than rushing toward mass production.
Every student is supported throughout each stage of the build, from selecting tonewoods and shaping bracing to final setup and hearing the first notes of their finished guitar played for the very first time.
At Lloyd Edward Guitars, the focus is on craftsmanship, patience, individual attention, and creating instruments that will last a lifetime.
