Good of you to post this dave
Might be of real use to someone

I attended a Fender evening, at a local guitar shop a few months back
There were a couple of guys from Fender and a guy from Gretsch
It was a great evening, even though it was mainly for guitarists

The guys from Fender were great to talk to
One of them was a great guitarist, and thoroughly nice bloke
Of course, the free beer, pizzas and snacks organised by the shop also promoted a nice atmosphere
