Now don’t go getting all excited, but I noticed that Trevor Gore is going to be doing his 3 day modal tuning seminar at Robbie O’Brien’s in Colorado.

Recognizing that Colorado to Ontario is an awful lot easier than Australia to Ontario, I’ve reached out to Trevor to see if he might be interested in doing his class here.

So I’d like to gauge the level of interest.

Number one, are you interested?

Number two, what would you be willing to pay?

Robbie O’Brien is charging $1700 (US), but I think this is a profit maker for him. My goal would be to cover costs, send Trevor home with a respectable payday, and make sure I don’t get tagged with any outstanding costs.

Lemme know what you think.

I would be interested. I'm not sure what a fair price would be
but it would be great to have a more affordable option for
this seminar.

Hey all,

There is actually a course already scheduled for July 2020, hosted by luthier Greg Wight in Port Stanley Ontario. total of 20 spots available over 2 x 3 day courses. As of last week there was approximately 15 spots still open, but my guess is they will fill up as word gets around. Cost is $1,500 CAD. Anyone interested can get in touch with Greg for details and to register. Or you can email me and I can forward you the course info.

I was a bit slow off the mark here; sometimes real life gets in the way...

Yes, I can confirm the July 2020 course with Greg Wright in Port Stanley, Ontario. The course will be the usual content; in a nutshell casting light on what to some seems like the shadowy darkness of the Black Book! Contact Greg for details:
