Townsville – Australian guitar making school

My Stepie Tane was recently visiting from NZ. As a gift, we purchased him a spot in one of Joel Dubbeld from Studio Dubbled’s – Australian Guitar Making classes.
Students of all ages and skill levels come together to create in this light-filled studio.  Tane was eager to make as much progress as possible and some days spent 8 hours working on his guitar. He was amazed by how much goes into making the instrument. Decisions like the timber used will change the tone of sound it makes. He has already learned so much! In a society where most things are instant, this school offers more than just lessons in guitar building. Students spend weeks patiently crafting their unique instrument which by the end resemble art.
Joel is patient and passionate which makes for an incredible teacher and also role model.
Tane will be back in September to hopefully finish his guitar. I can’t wait to hear him play it!
