Wildwood Instruments

Immerse yourself in the art of luthiery. A truly unique experience awaits you at Wildwood Instruments, with their exciting one day banjo making course on offer. Come to Daylesford for the day and be professionally guided through turning your banjo parts into a fully functioning instrument. Everything is provided for you to complete the build, in their fully equipped luthier workshop. This is the only course of its kind in Australia, offering an exciting opportunity to put together a kit banjo in just one day. If you would like to try your hand at banjo making, Nick welcomes anyone 16 years or older wishing to have a go, as no experience is necessary. You will be guided through the whole process in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, so it's a fun, as well as educational activity.
