    What an incredible looking school, teaching superb skills. Shame I live in the UK as I could learn alot from Phil.

    Great video!  I’ve taken a couple of classes with Phil. Phil is a great guy and a great instructor.  I really enjoyed my trips to Beverly.  In Phil’s classes, you learn so much more than the project itself. Plus, it’s great to be fully engrossed in your passion for a week or even a weekend.  I did the ball&claw and a 2 week lowboy class (just like the example in teh video – nice top!).  I highly recommend that anyone considering taking a class to go for it, you will be glad.  Freddy was still working with Phil when I was there last and he’s a good fella and a good instructor too.  Look forward to seeing/hearing more from Freddy as he progresses his career.  Sorry to babble.  Just wishing I was there instead of here in the office in Memphis today!
