The Guitar Show 2017

Jason

Hello All

Its about that time of year, so here goes.

The Guitar Show 2017 is up and running. I've got loads of new exhibitors, a push on bass exhibitors, a new acoustic guitar room (upstairs where the live stage used to be) and I'm trying to make the live stage a bit different this time.

Details to be confirmed, but we will have "Meet Your Maker" on the stage, this will be hosted by @Chrisv and it will be your chance to ask questions of @ThorpyFX (pedals), Tim Mills from Bare Knuckle (pickups), Patrick James Eggle (guitars) and Mr sorted but not able to tell you yet (amps). I realised that I get to ask these guys loads of nerdy questions when I'm talking to them, but may be you don't get the chance, so if you have a question, I think this panel will have it covered. You can post questions here or ask them with our special roving mic at the show.

Also on the live stage will be JoanovArk (all female band that came to the show as visitors in 2016) The Story of Guitar Heros (a touring theatre production) Krissy Mathews (Via PJ Eggle), Fender, Boss plus more tba.

I hope you enjoy it, its the best line up of exhibitors I've ever had, there is a really good mix of big brands and UK makers. So if you are stuck for a Christmas present, tickets are available now

Any questions, tag me in and I'll answer them.

Oh and for claritys sake, yes there is a transaction fee of £2 on the tickets, but its £2 for 1 or 1000, nothing I can do about it, worthwhile if you are buying 2 or more tickets, less so if you are buying 1. I believe that if you use a Barclaycard on a Friday this is waved.

Hope to see you there.

Jason

PS The Guitar Show will be running a 12 days of Christmas give away on the facebook page from next week, with prizes every day.

You tell us everything apart from where it is. My work firewall dislikes your website, so I will look later on from home.

Any update on this? The website seems to have been a bit static.
I've just told the Mrs that we're going to Brum for her birthday

Hello, what do you need to know? The website hasn't really changed because apart from a "name" (which I am working on) its pretty much all done.

I'm treating myself, as it's my birthday as well that week-end.

Any idea what the parking is like?

There is a free car park at the venue. It does get full up though so you tend to only get on if you arrive early or very late. As you exit the car park and turn right you go into a residential area where many people park.
