It's in Pomona...is it the same folks that do the one in Santa Monica? If it is then yeah, it's no Arlington.

The Bay Area one has been quite disappointing of late. Still, I'm gonna go for a couple of hours...

If it's the same people who put on the show at the O.C. Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, CA a couple of times a year, I have to agree with Erik. Those shows ARE lame!

I've been to the one at the O.C. Fairgrounds once. I met a really good amp cabinet maker named Kerry Wright, and saw some cool guitars, but nothing to write home about, and I don't need to go again. the only thing I could kick myself for was not buying a beat up looking Roland JC120 for $200 for, that worked great. I could have had Kerry recover it to look brand new if I'd wanted.

I think Graham will still be in for the fishing, Steve.... the guitar show is the Saturday and Sunday and I guess he'll pop over on one of those days.

Tammy not going to SoCal or not interesting in catching a big 'un?? :mrgreen:
