Have Fun.  Be Nice.  Mean People Suck.

I went.  My personal opinion is: don't waste your time unless you're selling something.
Not much eye candy there - probably a total of 10 guitars and 0 basses.

Sounds pretty weak. Thanks for the "don't bother" report!

On second thought, I wish I'd known earlier or I would have brought the Rippers, the Ric, the Pbass, the Fenderbird and the Victory and put them on display. Heh.
Why did Salvador Dali cross the road?
Clocks.

They certainly could have used the excitement, Denis.
It was like a morgue in there.  Old people getting older acoustic guitars appraised.
There were a couple of very old Danelectro tube amps that were interesting, but when that's the highlight, it's time to bolt.
