MI’s Guitar Craft program offers comprehensive training in guitar design, construction and maintenance of both electric and acoustic guitars. In keeping with MI’s total-immersion approach to education, the classroom is a fully-equipped instrument manufacturing facility.

As a final project, you design and build your own instrument, learning through direct experience under the guidance of first-rank professionals how to analyze and solve the problems encountered by working luthiers.

Whether your goal is to work for a guitar manufacturer, design and build your own instruments, or work as a guitar tech, a Guitar Craft education provides the foundation for success.

In addition to learning the material taught in the Certificate program for Guitar Craft, which covers electric instruments, students can also learn in the specific design, fabrication and finishing requirements of acoustic guitars.
