The Great Guitar Build-off
Enter the Community Build Category 2023
This Category was created last year because so many of you wanted to build along without the competitive aspect of GGBO. It proved so popular so we will be running with the category again in 2023.
The Community Build goes back to the very roots of the GGBO. No entrance fee, no prizes and no major pressure to do anything apart from build an instrument and join in with our fantastic community.
This is the only category that is NOT a competition. There will be no voting for the top 3 builds here.
Community Build members will have the option to help judge the other categories as part of the GGBO academy.
Build what you want, how you want, and we can't wait to see what you do.
FUND RAISING SPONSORED BUILDS
Every build this year will be a sponsored build raising donations for your choice from a selection of music based causes GGBO wants to help.
