Let's start a thread to see who will be going to the upcoming GAL Convention/Exhibition in July.

I'll be there for the whole thing with my builder buddy Bill. We are flying this time though - enough with the 14 hour car ride each way already!

I'm looking forward to seeing y'all in Tacoma. Hope to meet more OLFers this time!

Cheers,
Dave F.

I'll be there at least on the open day. That would be fun to have an OLF get together!

Well, I'll be missing (in both senses of the word) it this time around. Our shop is busy enough that somebody has to stay behind to talk to the public, so that'll be me on deck. The four other full time repair guys will be going, and I trust they will have a fine time there.

Shouldn't it be the other way around Frank?

Just out of curiosity, is there any real intent to sell like at other shows, or is it really more for show and tell?

Mostly for show/tell to other luthiers. The halls are open to the public on Saturday afternoon (if I recall correctly), so if you have a booth, you might sell something if you're lucky!

Cheers,

I've registered and will be there. We're combining this show with a trip
to see our kids that live in Portland and Olympia. First time to ever show
any guitars, but I'll welcome all feedback.
