33 Fingernails Workshop with Günter Schillings

By appointment, please contact the festival office.

Sound production on the guitar is largely a matter of the shape and structure of the fingernails.

This workshop will help provide answers for the optimal shaping and maintenance of both natural and artificial fingernails. It will also offer assistance with problem nails and fingernail repairs.
