Pre-NAMM HANG
V
At a nearby venue ( the Colony House ) we held our annual Wednesday night Pre-NAMM HANG with 20 sponsor companies . This A & R style Meet n ’ Greet was a big success ( thank you Lord !) as we had the biggest crowd yet . On our stage was the new 12-year old guitar phenom Saxon Weiss ( super nice kid and family ), all the way from Singapore guitarist Alex G Lim and our very own [ WM ] guitar columnist Chris Rocha . Three talented guitarists in one night !
This happy fellow won the free PRS SE NF3 Electric guitar at the HANG . We also gave away Solo Dallas pedals , G7th Capos and Martin
acoustic and Darco electric guitar strings .

Our exhibit booth was close to Furch Guitars from Czechoslovakia and they have made quite a splash the last few years . When I entered their booth , I met Pete himself who taught me all about their CNR System Active which affords your Furch guitar to enjoy consistent playability , superior neck relief stability and precise string action . Pretty cool tech breakthrough , eh ?

Another even closer neighbor of ours was Laurie Williams guitars from New Zealand . Fine luthier guitars made for the most part with tonewoods all from their home country of New Zealand . Gorgeous looking and sounding . Wow ! Not for the budget minded but worth it . Laurie himself came and sat in our booth for a visit with me .
