“Great course!”
“The instructor’s explanations are detailed, demonstrating knowledge and excellence in the art of ‘Luthieria’.”

“An informative and enjoyable course filled with valuable hands-on examples of proper guitar maintenance practices. Great for both beginners and more advanced guitar enthusiasts willing to learn how to take care of their instrument without spending a fortune on taking it to the luthier.”
“Very detailed instructions, the instructor is very knowledgable and concise. I would highly recommend this course, can’t wait for the next course.”
“It was a very solid back grounding and I will be looking for a more advanced course now and an opportunity to work on some instruments.”
“This course was exactly what I wanted. I was looking into guitar building but over time realised it wasn’t what I wanted. I was more interested in how guitars work and how to repair and maintain them. This was perfect and easy to follow.”
“The course is very informative, entertaining and the guy is pretty funny. Watching on mobile and so far it’s pretty easy to use. No hacks required.”
The award-winning Guitar Repair Technician training program has been a preferred choice within the Wales Employability Sector for guitar repair training (electric, bass, acoustic, classical), and was entered onto the Careers Wales database of approved courses in 2013.
The problem for many, however, was access to the guitar repair workshops i.e. many people simply were unable to attend workshops to learn how to repair electric guitars and other types due to time constraints, geographic location and transportation.
The solution: The Guitar Repair Technician training program is now available here through Udemy’s online learning platform for you to learn how to fix your own guitar and customer guitars in your own time, and without needing to leave home.
This module focuses on specific maintenance jobs that a Guitar Repair Technician might experience, whether you’re working in the Guitar and Music industry, following a hobby or simply maintaining your own guitar to keep it in great shape.
Other Guitar Repair training courses are expensive, long and often not easily accessible. This module (selected as a UK government approved training course) would cost in excess of £250 per day – here through Udemy, you now save a fortune!
With a 30-day money back guarantee, unlimited access any time anywhere and on any device and a certificate of completion to show future employers or to add credibility to your technical know-how and services, there’s no better time to sign up to the course.

Gareth Hall –
Comapred with some free lessons on YouTube I did not fully understand what to do for polishing for maple necks, treated and untreated – LemOil seemed to be an issue for maple necks. Some of the equipment made earlier in the course (fret covers) were not used and the file or polish 1000 grit bar was used. I am still nervous about considering the micro abrasives now that I have seen many techs do short videos saying avoid them – good enough for car, good enough for guitar is not something I will stick to because a guitar body and especially the neck is wood and a car is metal and plastic, despite a shared glossy finish on the body. But, not a bad course at all to get you up and running and found this course useful in conjunction with free videos online and a maintenance book I have. I’ll probably have a go at restring my ibanez floyd rose guitar now, clean it up as its filthy from 10 years of neglect and then move to module 2.

This course was amazing, really helped fill some of the gaps in my knowledge (I’d only changed strings before) and gave me the confidence to explore maintenance topics. The videos are clear and well explained, lots of great resources and notes too. Very highly recommended. Thanks Kevin!!

I own several guitars and have been maintaining them over the years. I would like to be able to learn more about the electronics portions and neck setups. Looking forward to learning some new tricks!

This reaffirmed (and refuted) some of the knowledge I’ve picked up over the years, and added many techniques to fill in the gaps!

Worth every cent. I learned heaps from this course, what a great teacher.
