Greetings from O'Brien Guitars 

Two more students have come to O'Brien Guitars over the last two weeks and built guitars with me. One student was from Idaho and is quite an accomplished player and singer songwriter. He even has a couple of CD's
The other student was from Montreal. Both guitars just happened to be OM model steel string guitars and turned out quite nicely. They started with a box of materials from LMI and in 6 days had completely built and finished their guitars. 
My 2019 teaching schedule will be posted on my website soon, so if interested in building a guitar with me go ahead and get in touch.
  

2018 marks the 10th anniversary of the first Luthier Tips du Jour video. Since then hundreds of "Tips" have been presented in the series and the videos have received over 7.5 million views on Youtube. To celebrate the occasion, for a small fee I am making available the original series, the current Luthier Tips du Jour Mailbag series, as well as 75 unreleased episodes. These unreleased Luthier Tips du Jour Mailbag videos will be slowly released to the general public at the rate of one video about every four weeks. At this pace it would take five years to make them all available for viewing. However, you can view and download them all now! Why wait to benefit from all the great information I present in my popular Luthier Tips du Jour Videos!  That's just under 24 hours of instruction and 245 videos full of valuable information on all things lutherie related!!
