Its hard to believe but its already been almost 2 weeks since the Montreal Guitar Show and I'm still over whelmed, exhausted, excited and about 200 other adjectives. First off, what an incredibly well run show in an fantastic city. I am literally counting down the days till next years show! Second a HUGE thanks to Mike and Jennifer Potvin of Potvin Guitars for not only being willing to let us ship all our show guitars to them, truck them to the show, help wing man our table when I was pulled away, taking pictures (which I can't WAIT to get!!) ect. Besides all of that, Mike and Jennifer are two of the sweetest people I have ever met and I am proud, no honored to call them friends. Oh and Mike builds incredible guitars, check them out! I was also so excited to see Juha and Emma Ruokangas of Ruokangas Guitars and Nik Huber of Huber Guitars who you might remember from our blog posting back at the NAMM show earlier this year. Fantastic people, Juha and Emma especially became like family I didn't know I had. Amazing builders, amazing people. Finally I got to meet a BUNCH of people I had wanted too, Sam Evans of Cardinal Guitars, Pete Malinoski of Malinoski Guitars, John Monteleone, Jeff Bamburg, the crew from Alexander James guitars and a whole host of others. Amazing people! Now if you've been watching our facebook page you probably already know this but we were lucky enough to sell our Hollowbody, 4449-32HB in fact at the show. What an absolute honor to be one of the lucky people who have sold a guitar there, truly unexpected. To all the other people who were gracious enough to stop and talk, play guitars ect thank you again. As promised we ARE working on the pictures from the show and as soon as I get them they'll be up, please keep coming back. Well, till next years show keep checking in. We'll not only be uploading more pictures this week (a few will go up today) but over the next year we're going to be doing a couple of video series about guitars we're building specifically for next year. Oh one last note, I did a Podcast interview for Gear for Guitars which you can hear here. I HIGHLY suggest listening to all the podcast interviews, they are excellent. In fact I've been listening to them all day while I've been in the booth spraying the next batch of guitars. -doug
