Brent did some incredible work on my 5-string banjo. It's a strong instrument now and will maintain its great condition for many years. It truly stays in tune!

Awesome craftperson skills, utmost care and eye for detail. Setups made the guitars sound and play as well as they ever have. Plus Brend is a legend! Will definitely be going back. 5/5

I started the guitar building course back at the start of 2021 with Gourley Music. Brend was an amazing teacher with so much enthusiasm, and just as you'd expect paying to have a master luthier teach you one-on-one how to build a guitar from scratch... there is so much to learn and there's a lot of pressure on you to build it yourself. But Brend made this process very easy, enjoyable and really exciting. Even during COVID and the lockdowns, Brend still made arrangements to resume building classes at alternative times even when it was inconvenient for him. He goes above and beyond to help his students and you go away believing that you could be a luthier some day too. He has time and time again brought out the best in me. I've achieved techniques and designs I didn't think I could do effectively and I'm so proud of the guitar I have almost finished. He is also a great artisan with a keen eye for style and helps every student create a design unique to them. This course has been worth way more than what you pay for and I couldn't recommend highly enough.
