Guitars number 5 and 6 for this year have left the shop. Last week two students came in and built two beautiful steel string acoustics with me in six days. The jokes were stale but the coffee and pastries were fresh and a good time with lot's of memories was had by all. Congratulations to Steven Taft and Richard Jacoby for two wonderful guitars and thanks for allowing me to have a hand in their creation. Here is a video of Steven playing his guitar right after the strings went on.  
O'Brien Guitars Guitar Building course
  

In February I had a student also build an OM acoustic with me but this student wanted a high gloss lacquer finish. Since he lives here in Colorado we sprayed the guitar together and allowed it to cure for a month. We spent the last couple of days leveling and buffing the finish, gluing the bridge on the soundboard, putting the strings on and doing a set up. I think it turned out really nice. Congratulations to Greg Baker for a beautiful guitar.
  
  
Once again I have had a cancellation for a class coming up later this year. This rarely happens. The dates are October 22 - 27. I am making these dates available for someone to come and build either a steel string or classical guitar with me in my shop. If interested please contact me as these dates will go fast. If you can't make these dates fit your schedule I am already taking reservations for 2019. Next year's class schedule is also filling quickly though, so check with me soon for dates.
  
If you are interested in learning to build guitars or just want
to see how I build my guitars then schedule a class with me.
If you are in need of a concert quality classical or steel string
guitar then let me know as I would love to build a guitar for you.

Thank you,
