About This Course

Traditional classical guitar rosette making is an art that has been passed down from artisan to artisan for centuries. However, until now there has been very little information available about how to produce these beautiful works of art. Recently I asked luthier Bill Nesse to share his knowledge of rosette making with my guitar building students. The result was a classical guitar rosette making master class taught by Bill over the course of four weeks. Students learned how to design, make and install the rosettes. Everything from tools and materials and how to use them to execute a final product was addressed in great detail. I videoed this master class and am making it available to anyone who has ever wanted to learn the art of rosette making.

The course is very detailed with over 4 hours and 25 lessons of high quality video instruction. Bill shows everything you need to know to make a fine classical guitar rosette. Many of the techniques taught here can also be used to make steel string rosettes and purflings as well.

Please read the FAQ page before beginning. To begin just register/login and purchase the video lessons.

I hope you enjoy the course and the information made available here.
