The Main Event

If you’ve ever sat there fiddling with your guitar wondering why does this still feel off?, this One Day Guitar Set-Up, Wiring & Maintenance Course is exactly what you need. It’s a full day of getting stuck in, learning how to make your guitar feel and sound its absolute best – without relying on a tech every time something goes out of whack.

You’ll be shown how to properly adjust the truss rod, saddles and nut so your guitar plays like a dream. Want lower action? Buzz-free strings? Better tuning stability? It’s all covered. Plus, you get to choose your own mini project: either hand-make a bone nut from scratch, or learn how to fit new pickups and give your tone a total refresh.

This course is super hands-on, taught in a relaxed and friendly setting by an experienced guitar tech who speaks your language. Whether you’re playing pub gigs, home-recording, or just jamming on the sofa, you’ll walk away with real skills that’ll help you keep your guitar in top shape for life.

And the best part? You’ll start to feel more connected to your instrument – because you’ll actually understand how it works.

If you’re on the hunt for gifts for guitar players that go beyond the usual straps and strings, this one’s a winner. It’s one of those unusual gifts for guitar players that they’ll genuinely use—and love. For birthdays, Christmas, or just because, this is a brilliant way to show a guitarist you really get them.
