Phat Philly Show…

This post is for all the people who go to the Philly Guitar Show, which is now being held in Central Jersey (go figure). I am including pics and reviews of the show, some of the gear I saw or tried out and general info for anyone who is into the Guitar Show thing. I go every time as I live close by and this is better than hearing from the google group as you can see the pics.

I will admit, I’m biased toward Jazz, but I love looking at just about everything there. These shows are great and feature a wide variety of Guitar related items from books, CDs, straps etc to the adoption of Greyhounds! I mostly look at the custom high end guitars and I am not a fan or collector of vintage. I think the whole idea is a kind of sham but some people love that stuff. No offense and I will try to include some interesting vintage if I see any.

So..here is the place. Its the Great American Guitar Show put on by BEE 3 vintage.

It used to be the ‘Fall Philly’ Show, but is in Somerset NJ now. Its much better in NJ, as the show seems to be bigger, especially the summer show in May.

This fall show was much smaller but still worth goin for me. The biggest and best show used to be in Long Island, but has scaled WAY down in the last few years, although the jazz bar still has the greatest players in the world for 10 bucks all day. I no longer make the drive to LI.
