So, Boogie and I felt we should start the trip with a good nutritious breakfast: Once there, we heard some amazing gristle music: Then we learned all about building a custom guitar from some talented luthiers: Finally, I was accosted by this wild man who said, “You either order another private stock or I will have you bumbershooted!”
It’s a good thing that guy’s badge was turned around so we couldn’t identify him. Bodia, only you get the special sauce.
Excellent! If Indiana was a little closer, or if Sweetwater's Gearfest was closer in date to Experience, I might make it one day... My BIL and family live in IL, close to IN border. Maybe next year I will co-ordinate "family visit" near a certain weekend in late June...
Aww.... I <3 you man! That'll get you a reprise from the Santana peer pressure. Heck, I may even let you borrow one!
Too kind. There was a smokin’ deal yesterday on a Santana Retro but I just couldnt bond with the color scheme. I thought 11Top was going to buy it, for a minute. But then he came around and had that PS glint in his eye. I had to step back before I got infected...or pressured by Paul.
It has to be an IU umbrella (Go Hoosiers!). Didn’t get a single photo with Jesse. It was great to hang with him though.
There were some bargains to be had for sure. That Santana had a nice trampas green flame top and sold for a nice price. SW had some really nice PRS models in the sale tent.
So did anyone buy anything cool? I wanna make it down there sometime, even if it's just to see the Indiana crew.
Glad you are having a great time. We need A PRS Experience & Sweetwater Gear Fest - Western US editions (I know a town where you can do a bit of gambling on the side - a perfect location for said events)
I bought a 2000 watt FRFR-112 Headrush monitor and a Line 6 wireless that Boogie convinced me I needed. They have really outstanding buys on the bargain table.
Congrats on your new purchases! I have been trying to get a hold of my Sweetwater rep for the last 2 days and very uncharacteristically, he has not responded. Now I realize why. I forgot all about Gearfest.
