\u00a0If there is any guitarist who is well versed in not only the\u00a0<\/span>playing<\/span> of the stringed instrument, but also has mastery in its production, sales, customization and repairs then, it is Lester Offei Dodoo (CEO of\u00a0<\/span>Lesterons Computer & Electronic Services).<\/p>\n

The young but versatile bassist typifies a complete instrumentalist<\/span> and a musician, who has specialized in customizing guitars to bring out its<\/span> perfect sound.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Although he has no formal education in electronics, the Association<\/span> Board of Royal Schools of Music, UK, graduate (Grade 5) creates a preamplifier in guitars to bring out its best sound.<\/span><\/p>\n

To him, the creation of the inbuilt preamplifier mechanism boosts lost<\/span> signals, and readjusts the\u00a0 action of the fret board\u00a0 to make\u00a0finger application on the board\u00a0 easier and play friendly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Besides specializing in guitars, he has mastery in setting up quality<\/span> sounds in huge, medium and small auditoriums; a classical example of his handiwork is the wiring of the sound setup of the popular Action Chapel<\/span> International (ACI) auditorium; off the Spintex Road, Acoustical sound works at Oasis of Love Church Ahodwo Kumasi ICGC Community 12, 21,<\/span> Branches Just to mention a few.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0Lester, a high profile consultant also sets up studios, installs Instruments as well as organizes music workshops (instruments, vocal,sound , technical & administration) for school campuses (2003 final<\/span>
\nyear music students of UG, Legon) & churches, with the current one scheduled for Kumasi at the Oasis of Love Church, Ahodwo in the coming days<\/span><\/p>\n

Responding to what drew him to the guitar, he pointed out that his father, a guitar player introduced him to the instrument, but he digressed from the acoustic to bass along the line.<\/p>\n

He revealed \u201cat\u00a0age 15, I could fix anything electronic. Growing up, I realized the cost of a good guitar was expensive, so I move around to\u00a0everywhere importers discharge home used appliances for the guitars and I work on them to bring the best out of it sound wise.\u201d<\/p>\n

He has played with world acclaimed gospel singer Alvin Slaughter, Ron Kenoly, recorded local artists like Maame Justine of<\/span> \u2018Kronkron ni\u2019 fame,\u00a0 Danny\u00a0 Nettey, Nii Okai, Joe Mettle, Azigizar Jnr., among others and train young folks in music.<\/p>\n

At a very tender age of four, he could strike the chord on the acoustic guitar; three year on he hit the stage as a bassist, endearing himself to his audience. He<\/span> was a member of the first group that represented Ghana in an African Jazz Competition, at the Alliance Franc\u00e0is<\/p>\n

His knowledge in the things of music, makes him an empire and an avenue worth investing into.<\/span><\/p>\n
