When we contacted our national charitable organizations about what instruments they needed the most for their music programs (other than the guitars that are built and donated through our Build-a-Guitar), they said bass guitars and drums! That was the inspiration for Build-a-Band!
The key was the guitars. You can’t build a guitar in an hour because they need to be sanded, stained, coated and then assembled, which takes a whole day and involves gluing necks, drilling holes, and soldering connections.
So, we hired a top guitar company to build us a guitar kit from scratch that could be assembled in an hour without all the steps mentioned above. We then designed our own Instruction booklets.
The guitars are excellent quality; one-of-a-kind kits build exclusively for Best Corporate Events and they sound great! We had a bass guitar kit made and developed an easy-to-understand instruction book for that instrument too, and added a drum set kit to create Build-a-Band!
The event was great—it was so much fun and a very special way to celebrate our 125th anniversary! Our guests all seemed to really enjoy it (especially the teams who participated up onstage)! Thanks again for helping us pull off such a fun evening
