All Strung Out
RESERVOIR’S Richard Vella is all strung out after scoring a job at one of Australia's premier guitar makers.

In fact, all of the graduates of N-Tech’s guitar-making course have offers from the illustrious Maton Guitar makers in Box Hill.

"I got a call from my guitar teacher and got referred into the course," Vella said, who received the state's highest VCE score for his guitar playing.

"The course was good," he said. "I built an electric guitar and acoustic guitar and we had to build a custom-made one."

It’s the first year the guitar-making course has run and it has been a terrific success.

Program co-ordinator Bon Nardella said: "Maton guitars have people like John Butler and Tommy Emmanuel on their books and they were quite open to the whole idea."
