Do you own a guitar and want to learn how to set it up correctly? These one-day guitar setup courses in Somerset are ideal for you! If you don’t have an electric guitar, there's no need to worry—Josh can provide one for the day. A skilled musician and guitar builder, Josh is passionate about guitars and patient with students who are new to the music world, making him the perfect instructor. You’ll find that properly setting up a guitar involves much more than you might anticipate. The subtle variations in minor adjustments that can dramatically alter how a guitar plays are truly intriguing. During this course, you'll explore various techniques, from adjusting the truss (the metal rod located behind the neck) to modifying pickup heights for enhanced tone, tailored to your playing style. As you can imagine, this detailed work requires focus, so Josh limits each group to just three participants in his guitar setup courses. This ensures that everyone receives plenty of time and personal attention. By the end of the day, both you and your guitar will leave the workshop finely tuned, adjusted, and ready to play!
