Ken Bailey has been building and restoring vintage instruments for over 30 years. He taught his first guitar-building class over 15 years ago, at the request of friends. Since that first class, many first-time builders have completed their dream guitars in Ken's shop. It is Ken's greatest pleasure to share his knowledge and craft with those who wish to build their own instrument.
