A three-day intensive course where you get to build your very own handwired guitar amplifier under the tuition of Chris Fantana, owner of Rift Amplification

You’ll get to build (and take home with you) a '6G3 Brown Deluxe' in Head or 1x12" Combo format

In order to ensure that the amplifiers are built, fired up, tested, and completed within just three days, a strict build schedule will be adhered to with no room for tweaks or modifications. Of course, there’s nothing stopping you from modifying your completed amplifier at home, so go crazy!

The days run from 9:30-5:30, starting with a quick cup of coffee before heading straight over to the solder station to start the build. You’ll do every step of the build yourself, with Chris and the team keeping a watchful eye over your progress, offering hints and tips along the way.

 

The course is hard work with much to get done in a short timeframe, so a positive ‘can do’ attitude is essential along with a spot of good humour.

 

The three-day courses are run on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from Rift’s workshop near Brackley, Northamptonshire and are easily reachable from both M40 and M1 motorways. The local pub serves excellent food and also offers accommodation if you need it.
