1 Electrical Guitar in a weekend

Build your own electrical guitar in my workshop in just a few days.
We will discuss the project together, and even if you’ve never picked up a chisel before, you will leave with a finished, luthier-quality guitar.
If you already have experience in guitar construction, this is a great opportunity to refine your skills using a professional construction approach.

Who can take the course?

No special preparation is required. Even if you have never worked with wood, don’t worry, you will still be able to build your guitar. I will assess your skills and make the most of them.

What kind of instrument can we make?

We will build a luthier guitar from scratch, without using any semi-finished products. The guitar will be entirely made by us. Before the course, we will discuss what type of guitar you want to make. Most of the famous guitar shapes (Les Paul, Telecaster, SG…) are possible to make, or we can use an original shape that you design. Upon your arrival, I will be ready with all the necessary molds and tools.

How will our work day be organized?

The duration of the course can vary based on the type of guitar we want to build; typically, everything can be completed in 3-4 days. We will work every day, 8 hours a day, with a lunch break of approximately one hour.”

How much does it cost?

The price for the standard 3-day course is 1950 €. If the desired instrument requires additional days, the cost will increase by 600 € per day.

What is included in the price?

• The guitar: at the end of the experiece days, the guitar will be yours.
• Accommodation for the necessary nights in a nearby apartment: the apartment is shared, and you are free to bring guests (who can take advantage of the opportunity for a vacation in Milan). Extra nights can be requested.
• A standard case to transport your finished guitar.

What Is Not Included in the Price?

• Meals: You will need to arrange your own meals.
• Cost of materials: On the first day, we will make a trip to the sawmill where you can purchase all necessary materials based on your budget.
• All the hardware, like bridges, pickups, tuners, electonic, special cases… everything can be arranged and discussed.

How to take the guitar home?

I’ll provide a standard hard case for transporting your instrument. If you’re traveling by plane, most airlines do not allow guitars to be carried into the cabin without purchasing an extra seat. To save money, the best option is to check the guitar into the hold. We will place the case containing the guitar inside a sturdy cardboard box with protective packaging, ensuring the guitar is safe for travel with other luggage.

How to book and pay?

Send me a message using the form below. Once we have identified suitable dates for you, I will require a non-refundable deposit of 500 € to secure the week on the calendar. The remaining payment must be made the week before the course starts.
