Guitars

Geoff plays on both steel string and nylon string guitars.
His steel string guitar was made by Lewes luthier Nick Benjamin and he made his own nylon strung guitar with a lot of help of luthiers Richard Osborne and Cameron Mobbs. This took 18 months of a weekly evening class.

Here are some photos of the project:
