Guitar Maintenance Day!

This week we were very kindly joined by Tim’s friend, Gigs, who is a guitar technician and tour manager. Gigs gave an insightful talk about working within the music industry, touring and organizing tours.

It was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn how to set up a guitar and keep their instrument in tip-top condition, while also being provided with invaluable knowledge about working within the music industry.

Gigs workshop was extremely informative, he did a fantastic job of providing us all with how to set up our instruments. Students also were shown how diverse a career within the music industry can be. Gigs is coming in to do a series of workshops and will be joining us soon for a Podcast.

Thank you to Tim and Gigs for arranging this excellent day!
