Harbour Guitars

Possibly 6 stars?! I have and still am enjoying every second of this course! Whether you are looking for a hobby or some knowledge on starting a new career path this is 100% where I would recommend anybody to start! Very relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. Greg knows his stuff and will always set aside time to explain things to you, to better understand WHY and not just how. In this course YOU do EVERYTHING! Every little piece is made by you and you alone. Greg will walk you through step by step and show you how to make a masterpiece! Looking forward to future projects with Habour Guitars!

Same deal. Got this as a birthday present. I was a little apprehensive at first but Greg made me feel really comfortable and he is an amazing , smart and patient teacher. This course was by far one of the most gratifying things I have ever done. I ended up with an amazing beautiful guitar, made a great friend and I have something of real substance to leave my children. This is worth way more than what you pay for. Thanks Greg. We shall see you soon . Much love!!!!

Received the guitar building course as a birthday gift and really enjoyed it! This is one of those "life experiences" and to top it off, I have a great instrument that will last well beyond me. It was a pleasure to work with Greg Wight and also observe him teach others. Even though I have some woodworking experience, you can build a guitar without any, as Greg will take you through each process. He is a patient and thoughtful teacher.

Great Spot to build your own guitar. I spent 2 weeks with Greg at Harbour Guitars building a guitar of my own design. Greg accommodated this building a template for me prior to my arrival, to save time. I had no idea what timbers, I was going to use when I arrived and was pleased to see that Greg had quite a range to choose from. I ended up using Indian rosewood for the sides and Bear Claw Spruce for the sound board. There was no pressure during the course. Some days we worked up to 8 hours and other days only 5 or 6. The workshop was well equipped and all the blades kept sharpened. The air conditioner and air filter made it a pleasant working environment. Greg kept the workshop neat tidy. Benches and floor were clean ready for each new day. Greg let me do my own thing, but stepped in when I needed help with some of the tricky bits. Being the middle of the summer break accommodation was a bit hard to find in Port Stanley but I managed to get accommodation 2 blocks from the workshop at "Above and Beyond Port B&B" with Karen Segeren, which was a great bonus. I finished the guitar in 10 days and had a few days relaxing and fishing on the lake. I couldn't have had a better 2 weeks.

My experience with Harbour Guitar has been nothing short of astonishing!! First off Greg is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet! He has a supreme knowledge of guitar luthery making him world class! His shop is cutting edge and State of the Art! The best part is his wood supply is among the rarest and most toneful woods you will find, thus producing a superior sounding guitar to anything that's out there. Best of all you get to build it!! Location is great, especially in the summer. Lots of accommodations if you are looking to turn this into a vacation. You are a 5 min walk from lake Erie. Bars and Restaurants are also walking distance. Night life is also really great! So good time there if you are into that. For the price you simply can't beat the Harbour Guitar experience, because that's what it is, the experience of a lifetime!
