fryovanni Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I thought I would post up a message about the show as it is coming up next weekend. If you live near Portland Oregon it is a great show and you should really try to make it. Several members of this forum as well as others are going to try to meet up, so please feel free to post up and we can all get together and say hey. The show is pretty cool. If you are looking for inlay, don't forget to stop by Andy Depaule's booth, he brings a huge selection and you can pick up about anything from his web site or look through and select just the pieces of shell you would like. He is a super nice fella. David Myka is going to be exibiting this year (David is back on the west coast! Wahoo ), and you must stop by his both and say hello. For the bass fans be sure to check out David Kings booth, I am a fan . If you are looking for wood stop buy and say hi to the guys from Gilmer, Miles always brings down some really outstanding bits. If your into acoustics you can check out a few slightly well known builders; Jeffrey Elliot, Mike Doolin, Cyndy Burton, John Blanchard, John Mello, Alan Perlman to name a few. Archtops, Mandolins, Violins and so on... Lots to see. Hope you can make it, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Ross Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Sweet, here's the site: http://www.nwmusicalinstrumentshow.org/ My band (Custom) is playing across the river at the 15th St. Pub in Vancouver, WA on Saturday night & I'll be staying down there instead of trekking back up to Seattle. I'm going to try to make it to the show early afternoon on Sunday. Thanks for the heads-up, Rich! -d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stereordinary Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I went last year. Definitely worth going to, I had a lot of fun. Especially checking out the Luthier Tool Co. booth. Those guys/gals are doing some impressive stuff. And +1 to David King. A fantastic bass-maker and a gentleman to boot. I might try to make it again this year, if so, I'll let y'all know.

Myka Guitars Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I am really looking forward to this. I haven't seen the West Coast builders in a few years. It should be a great time! ~David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
