Questions

How does the voucher arrive?

By email, straight after you pay, with a printable voucher you can wrap, hand over or forward.

How long is a voucher valid?

12 months from the date you buy it.

Can they choose their own date?

Yes. They pick any available date for their course on our website and enter the voucher code at checkout. Build Your Own Guitar and The Masterbuild need booking at least a month ahead, so we can order their parts.

What if the course costs more than the voucher?

They pay the difference by card when they book. Money vouchers can be spent on one course or several, and any unused balance stays on the code until it expires.

Can a voucher be used for repairs or guitars?

Not at the moment. Vouchers are for our courses and bench days at the workshop.

Which course should I choose?

Guitar Set Up is the best place to start for any player, and Fret Dressing follows on naturally from it. Build Your Own Guitar and The Masterbuild suit someone who wants to make an instrument from start to finish. Not sure? A money voucher lets them choose.
