Guthrie Govan

Guthrie Govan Masterclass August 2008!

Guthrie is one of the most important guitarists on the scene today - and we're delighted to welcome him to the Guitar Getaways team. He'll be delivering a master-class as part of the Applied Guitar Getaway running from 10th to 16th August.

Guthrie first came to my attention when he won the 1993 Guitarist of the Year competition. He started playing guitar at the age of three, and appears never to have looked back since. He's currently a principal instructor at the Brighton Institute of Modern Music, gigs with ASIA, and performs regularly with his own band. You can read a more detailed biography of this super-hero of modern guitar playing at http://www.coffee-n-creme.com/artists_guthriegovan.html
