Official Luthiers Forum!

Wow, did that phrase ever mean something really different in the 60's!

But now it means Anaheim, and the western hemisphere's biggest musical instrument and accessory trade show. I'll be with the Luthiers Consortium at booth 1615 in Hall E. You can't get in there without a steenkin' badge; the show is not open to the public. But you can come to our after-show party that runs for three nights--Thursday, Friday, Saturday--at the nearby Travelodge on W. Katella. Here's a link. You are all invited.

Good luck Howard...keep us posted on your thoughts, reactions and opinions of the show. I expect we'll be hearing from a lot of others on their reaction to your latest masterpiece!

Andy...looking forward to your posts and thoughts as well. Also, please post lots of pics. TIA

Best wishes Howard.
Hey, here's a thought: Anyone that wants a picture of your DTM guitar, charge them $1. By the end of the show you'll have made a pot-load of cash.

You know, Howard, carrying on with this theme, if you had posters made of your magnificent guitar, I would buy one, and take down my Farrah Fawcett.

Have a great trip Howard.

Hey Howard, best wishes for the show. I saw that little private party show which you guys set up on Bruce's website a while ago. Now that looks like it could be very very cool.

All the best Howard.

Man, I really wish I could go this year. I was there for the 2005 show when I
worked for NAMM. Unfortunately I spent most of my time in the press
section, working on a few of the websites, so I didn't get to see everything I
wanted. The little time that I managed to spend on the floor was awesome
though! If you get a chance to see Steve Adelson play over at the Stick
booth, do so... he's incredible.

How cool is that. I get to meet Howard tomorrow!

Thanks to Andy, azimmer1, for getting me a ticket.

There are some advantages to living in Southern California.
