Western Maine Luthier Exhibition

Saturday, July 24th 3pm-7:30pm, Free
 
Noted professional luthiers, Beau Chadinha of Stow, Maine and Jon Oliver of Harrison, Maine will be showing and demonstrating their recent works including acoustic and acoustic/electric guitars. Admission is free.
 
About the Luthiers:
 
Beau Chadinha's recent guitars are flat top, steel string OM style cutaways in Cedar, Walnut, Quilted Maple and Ziricote. The organic lines and natural feel of his guitars makes these very attractive players instruments. Beau attended Roberto Venn guitar making school in Phoenix AZ and apprenticed with Michael Bashkan in Fort Collins CO. Three of his most recent guitars are on display and available for purchase at the North Conway Music Shop.
 
Jon Oliver's recent guitars include an arched top, thin hollow body acoustic/electric with adjustable sound post designed for changing the guitars tone prior to amplification. His focus is on innovation and craftsmanship. Jon attended the Totness School of Guitar Making in Devon, UK and apprenticed with Jonathan Cooper, violinmaker, in Gorham ME.
