CRAFTED TO FIT: LUTHIERY ON YOUR SCHEDULE

Crafting an instrument over two weeks may pose challenges for some individuals. Therefore, we provide a flexible course that accommodates your schedule. With a duration of six months to complete, you have the freedom to book your sessions at your convenience, allowing you to pursue your passion for instrument-making at your own pace and on your own time.

There are 12 working days to make a quality instrument, and you have 6 months to schedule and complete the course.
