The New Jersey Guitar Summit
Three Guitar Masters – Fabulous Guitar Virtuosos
THE NEW JERSEY GUITAR SUMMIT – Saturday October 4, 2025
After the success of the first edition in October 2024, the NJ Guitar Summit organized by the Folk Project together with the great news that Beppe Gambetta is back.
It will again be an opportunity to meet, learn and share with new friends the passion for acoustic guitar.
The structure includes, as last year, an intense day of workshops for each level, ending with a jam session and a final concert.
Teachers:
Beppe Gambetta: flatpicking technique starting with learning and understanding the music of the great masters to open the door to creativity in arranging, adapting and composing with the guitar.
Tony McManus: the world of Celtic guitar, with all the embellishments, techniques, open tunings, in which the guitar reproduces the sounds of traditional instruments.
Jefferson Hamer: the guitar from the point of view of the songwriter, arranger and producer, delving into its use as an instrument on which the production of a song is built.
