Here's a look back at some of the guitars we've had at various shows. It's always fun to travel and connect with guitarists across the country.

30th Annual Dallas Guitar Show
We had the pleasure of attending the April 2007 30th Annual Dallas Guitar Show. This was our fourth year in a row. There we had the satisfaction of showing a commemorative guitar for that momentous occasion. It was a Koa J2 archtop with inlay honoring this occasion. At the first fret, in mother of pearl, was the state of Texas. Each traditional fret position marker was a three-piece abalone/pearl block. Around the 12th fret there was a banner with the inscription "30th Annual Dallas Guitar Show". The tailpiece had the Texas State flag inlayed on it. A very sweet guitar!

Southern California is a long way from Iowa, but my family and I made the trip. Below are a few photos from the show.
