Guitar Repair and Building Program Coursework

• Tools and Procedures

The Introduction to Tools class lays the foundation for beginning the journey towards achieving your goal. In it, students learn to prepare and use professional quality hand and power tools.

Techniques are constantly changing and developing, and the instructors are always improving their own skills, techniques and the curriculum. But part of what we teach is the accuracy and attention to detail that is required to produce excellent results with any tool or technique.

The Introduction to Tools class is a prerequisite for almost all of the courses in the guitar program. The correct and safe use of both hand and power tools is essential to this craft. Without a passing grade students will be unable to continue on in the program.
