Guitar Makers Festival
Melbourne Guitar Makers festival is an opportunity to see and play some beautiful handmade guitars, and meet the people who make them, in an intimate setting.
These instruments are seldom seen in shops, and the workshops of the makers often off the beaten track. Its great to see photos online, or occasionally find a gem in a shop somewhere.
But nothing compares to sitting with the instruments, playing them and hearing them played. To have a range of guitars and makers together, and available for a whole weekend is a rare thing!
It took a concerted effort to get it all together in 2009, and was well worth it. For the 2010 festival we are sticking to the original simple idea. To showcase the handmade guitar by exhibiting work of the highest quality from established makers.
