BassAgent Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 [quote name='4StringPete' timestamp='1457360723' post='2997724'] I'm there on Saturday guys. Scottish guy with a beard and probably an Ashdown beanie. [/quote] I will try to find you. I'm there on Saturday as well, probably hanging out at the Eich stand a lot. I love talking to Scots. I love the accent. Hope you're a nice guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAgent Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I just saw the list of exhibitors. Found out Roger Sadowsky isn't coming (too bad, he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met), but LeFay will be there! Cool, last time I played a Remington Steele was quite a while ago and I remember them being absolutely amazing instruments. I'm gonna miss Mike Pedulla though, he brought a Pentabuzz last year that was stunning. Gonna be an interesting show anyways, some great exhibitors: Eich, LeFay, Ellio Martina, De Gier, Vanderkley, Rikkers (Dutchies yay!). AC... And quite some luthiers I've never heard of so that's gonna be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dood Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I'm embarrassingly rubbish with names at the worst of times and only slightly better when Ive had a good night sleep. I'd just like to take the time to say sorry if I can't remember your names when I say hullo. I'll have the trusty BC lanyard on; it'll be cool to meet some BCers!
