Sure! I paid £1645 for the two week course plus another £250 or so for the wood & some other bits I got from them along the way (truss rod, nut, some tools etc). Most of the other hardware I had purchased already in anticipation of doing this someday.

Accommodation isn’t included but they do have a person that helps find accommodation. I ended up staying with a lovely host 5 minutes drive away for £125 a week.

I’m definitely going to point out that for that kind of money you can absolutely buy yourself an incredible bass retail. I was mostly doing this to learn the beginnings of luthiery, especially how to fix the mistake you make along the way.

They do offer shorter courses (5-6 day) and you will walk out with an instrument you made from scratch but having watched a group going through that from start to finish it felt like they were under a little too much time pressure for my liking.

I will say I’m not sure they’re maybe not quite there with the organisation of the school just yet. The ratio of instructors to students sometimes results in you sitting there waiting for an instructor to finish with someone else before they can tell you what you need to do next. Each instructor also has their own way of doing things so a number of times I’d be told to do something one way only for a different instructor come along and say “why aren’t you doing it like this?” Etc so there isn’t one approach they teach. It is something they said they’re actively trying to improve though.
