I am sorry for the shameless self-promotion, but I would like to invite everyone on this board to the VTV Audio and Music Expo in Pasadena on Nov 19-20, 2005. We are holding a FREE expo with vendors selling and demonstrating audiophile, guitar amps, guitars, parts and more.

Admission is FREE from 10 am to 6 pm, both Saturday and Sunday. The Embassy is located on 211 East Huntington Dr, Arcadio, CA 95453

For lots of information, go to my website:

This is a free event open to all music and audio enthusiasts.

If this is a violation of the rules of this board, please remove this post.

Thanks

Charlie

All the best at the Expo Charlie. I would love to be able to get to an event such as this to compare guitar amps, guitars and the like. I hope that Rickenbacker Forum contributors in the LA area will get the chance to introduce themselves.

Just in passing, will VTV ship product worldwide?

Specifically, will you ship to Canada?

I ship worldwide every week. If you don't see something on my site, ask for it. I will give a 10% discount to all Ricksource members on parts and tubes.

Thanks for the kudos on the expo. I will post photos on my site after the show is over.

what about subscriptions?

I have a subscription myself and have had one since VTV started up. Its my favorite subscription even though they only come out 4 times a year, and haven't come out with a new one for a bit. Every time I get one, I have to sit down and read it right away, and I often refer back to them too. Great magazine!

Just a brief update and report on the show. We had over 1000 attendees for both days. 4 guitar amp builders, G & L Guitars showed up with dozens of cool guitars. There were a total of 43 paid vendors including music, audio, parts and repair services. Everyone was happy, one tube vendor took in over $12,000+! Most vendors walked away with huge wads of cash.

Most vendors said they would be back next time. The show was friendly, fun and there were great deals to be had everywhere.

We are doing a show in Northern New Jersey April 29-30, 2006 and another show in Los Angeles June 3 and 4, 2006 right across the street from the Stereophile Show.

Everyone is welcome to attend these shows.
