Hey Alex, any sense of what's happening? There's not really any detail on the site.

I've been checking almost every day, and aside from the RSVP link added today, there hasn't been any other info. Last year they had several speakers, with Tony Karol doing a side bending talk and demo, and Sergei de Jong talking about his criteria for choosing acoustic tops. I'm hoping that they do have some speakers, but no mention so far. Maybe they are planning to concentrate on sales this year. I'm going to be in Burlington checking a job site that morning, so it works out great.

Alex

Hi All,

Yes I will be there, and I am doing a wood and shell rosette install demo ... plus I will have some Karol circle cutters for sale. I think I have 5 or 6 left ...

also will be Serge Dejoinge (at least supposed to be), plus Marc Beneteau, and one other luthier ...


So come on out and talk guitars !!!!!

Thanks for posting this Alex. I wasn't aware of this and was curious to find out what's involved. Glad to hear Tony will be there. Look forward to catching up with him. Steve, you going?

Cheers
Rick

Hi Rick .. good to see you still hang out here some ...

There is also an open house at A&M in Cambridge next Friday and Saturday (not sure what all they might have going on but anyway) .. I might go on the Friday, seeing as I am at Exotic on Saturday ...

Another plug for the open house at A&M. I will be there with samples of some of my jigs. There will be a bunch of other guys there as well displaying a variety of woodworking related products and creations. A&M has recently rearranged their store. It will be a great time to check out the new layout!

Hope to see some of you on Friday or Saturday.

Josh

I'm working nights that weekend but I'm going to try to make it as well. Would really like to meet everyone. And buy the odd piece of lumber too! :)

George,
Seattle's cool! My wife and I were there just a few weeks ago for a couple of days at the start of our road trip to San Fran. Loved Seattle!

Tony,
Don't think I'm going to be able to make Cambridge ... something about actually having to show up for work on a weekday. idunno

Rick
