The contest is open for locals, expats and Vietnamese living overseas or those of Vietnamese heritage. Contestants can record a video of them playing the instrument or produce a guitar song.
The judges are instructors and teachers from renowned universities such as the Ho Chi Minh City Conservatory. After a month, the contest drew the attention of many amateur guitarists and after a stellar solo performance the 10 million VND first prize was awarded to Le Cong Nam Anh.
