I start at Musicians Institute's Guitar Craft Academy. It's going to be Hellish working and going to school full time... I won't sleep for 6 months... but I'm pretty excited!

Yeah, way to go Edward! I have nothing but admiration for people who go for extra learning, especially while working full time.
Please, as David has asked, let us know about your learning.

Thanks! Will do...

Last night was just 4 hours of lecture covering different options for custom builds. Most of it I already knew, but still interesting. Curiously, we'll be dealing with repairs and custom work at the same time.

Repairs is where I got my start in this business. It is very good to get to know all the basics before starting to build.

Friday was the last day of the semester. I passed, but it did come down to the last 15 minutes. I have to say that I'm not sure I'm going back. There's a heavy emphasis on repairs. While useful, they're not what I'm there for. Also, building while using $40K industrial machines won't help me much once I start building at home. I'm gonna take another look at You Tube tutorials and a couple books that were recommended to me here and decide what I'm gonna do. I have two weeks. I still have the fire to build, but may be taking another road. :D
