Perhaps in France!

Heh... but interestingly, neither Luthiery nor Lutherie is listed at http://www.dictionary.com , and since it's Luthier rather than Luther, I'm sticking with Luthiery until it can be proven otherwise.

^ Well, even though it's a very petty argument

It is spelled "lutherie" all over the internet.
And that includes this, a school of lutherie that has been around for years, which I hope to attend soon. http://www.galloupguitars.com
It says right at the top..

I'll give you that, actually. Google does give over a million more results for lutherie than luthiery.

*goes to change it*

I can't wait until the summer when I can get started on my first real project guitar, instead of making countless parts/bits/plans

Also, I'd like to volunteer myself as a wiring 'expert' (far from it, but I have enough experience wiring guitars to sink a ship) for any questions.

The guys from the GF know that I'm always available to help, so you guys should take advantage of me too

If you like it'd be the work of a second to make this a shared subforum, for bass and guitar. The techniques and issues are much the same, after all.

AG · 05-08-2006, 01:13 PM

I'd absolutely love that.

Wintermute · 05-08-2006, 01:20 PM

Done - and to simplify things a bit, I'll bring you on as a local in this subforum.

This is the lutherie category of the Open Directory Project, the biggest web directory edited by volunteers. By the way, thanks for the link to the Project Guitar forum, I'll add it to the guitar related chats and forum category soon.

We're trying out a new idea. Basically we're going to see if this forums gets enough traffic to be useable, feedback if you like it or not would be appreciated. We'll try to get some "Ask a Luthier" stuff if this goes through as well!

Idea courtesy JPBass.

can you give me some idea?
