No experience necessary. Ages 18+ welcome!

Make your own Bass or Electric Guitar with bass builder and musician, Allan Corona. This course is designed to walk students through the steps of constructing their own electric and bass guitars, including using templates to cut the body from a blank. Students are guided through the use of routers and drills to remove material for fitting the components. You’ll learn to safely use the machinery and tools required to complete your own instrument. Students learn how to solder the components, install pick guard, strings and all parts needed. We will show how to finish your guitar and install all components so it’s ready to play by the end of the workshop.

Materials are provided.

This class is open to all levels, but taking Intro to the Woodshop first is recommended.

Please note: This workshop takes place indoors. Depending on finish choice, students may need to come back outside of the 5 weeks for one or 2 visits to add coats of finish. We’ll work with your schedule… we’re flexible!

San Diego Craft Collective, 2590 Truxtun Rd., Studio 106, SD 92106 • 619.273.3235 • make@sandiegocraft.org

This course is held mostly indoors and some operations are performed outdoors, so we suggest:
• Dress in layers, bring a jacket or whatever you need to adjust to the studio temperature and being outside.
• Bring water/beverage and a snack if you need to be comfortable.
• Wear closed-toe shoes. Dropping tools on feet really hurts!
• Bring an apron + wear comfortable clothes that can get messy. You can buy an apron here.
• Long hair MUST be tied back and NO dangly jewelry or flowing sleeves. These can get caught in equipment.
