Adrian J. Lucas started making classical guitars in 1990, as part of an evening class taught by Roy Courtnall. He soon established his own workshop making mainly classical and steel stringed acoustic guitars. Lucas went on to illustrate Courtnall's book on guitar making, 'Making Master Guitars' (Robert Hale 1993). Circa 2018 Lucas was also teaching classical and steel string guitar making one day a week at Newark College in Nottinghamshire.
