Regularly The Guitar Channel organizes special events to showcase guitar builders in a rehearsal studio where it is possible to both try the instrument in a real playing environment and exchange with the luthier. Last week-end saw two events like that with Springer Guitars as the main focus points. The luthier Mikaël Springer was there in person to engage with the guitar aficionados.

On this day we even had the opportunity to witness that very special moment where a luthier gives the finished instrument to the new owner for the very first time:
Conclusion
It is during Special Event like those that we can really engage with the luthier and with the other passionate guitar people. What a blast to play that many luthier guitars in a high quality studio!
Thanks a ton to Mikaël who drove 800km back and forth with 5 guitars to be there, to present his work and answer all the questions from the avid guitar junkies who came on Friday evening and Saturday afternoon.
