Looks like a great lineup!
It's too bad Michael Gurian, Michael Greenfield, and Jeff Traugott don't make the grade as 'MASTER LUTHIERS' ....

My mistake, they are all master in their own rights, again sorry about that.

If you have the chance go to the Ken Parker and George Lowden lectures.

They're very inspiring.
Too bad I didn't videotape them at the Corde Factum Festival in Belgium

WARNING!

A few years ago I attended the Charles Fox one

GETTING STARTED IN LUTHERIE BY MASTER LUTHIER
CHARLES FOX

And now I find I wake up in the night and can't fall back to sleep because I start thinking about my next guitar wood combinations. Happened last night around 3:00 in the morning.

Charles Fox is a great speaker and excellent teacher.

But all those workshops sound amazing.

It's a great show. A great city. I was there last year. Kinda wish I was going again this year....

VOICING AND DESIGN PRINCIPLES FOR ACOUSTIC AND CONCERT GUITARS BY MASTER LUTHIER GEORGE LOWDEN


That one there is worth the price of admission!! Well, all of them are but I would love to see George and his thoughts on design and voicing.

Mr. Dupont, please do videotape the lectures if possible. I hope you find the $$$ for this. I would buy any and all DVDs with these lectures.

Thanks-
