Plan to attend MakeXplorations event on guitars
Please join the engineers-craftsmen of Portland Guitar on Tuesday, Feb. 18, from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Maker Hub for a night of guitars, science and art.
Acoustic quirks abound as a guitar’s sound is deconstructed and rebuilt. The inherent errors in the tonality among most notes and how to eliminate them will be demonstrated.
The presentation will be led by Jay Dickinson, who holds a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, more than twenty-five years’ experience in corporate physics and engineering positions, plus a lifetime of woodworking and artistic craftsmanship used to make guitars under the name Portland Guitar. Multiple examples of his work will be present for enjoyment after the presentation.
