John, I'm thinking of having an open house the same days. If folks take the Southern route they'll pass by my place here in Hawaii and are welcome to drop in on the way. Or, with your connections, maybe we can get a beer company to sponsor a live video feed. Sorry I'll miss your event.-Bob

I'm interested also. Finishing, pearl inlay, and neck setting sounds great.

I will have the shop open for RC Tonewoods to sell his ZOOT and anyone that wants to order and pick wood up from RC please feel free to do so. This is a time to talk luthiery and share information and some time to talk to people with the same interest.
I hope to make this a small ASIA symposium and do it as long as I am able. To be fair to Lance I will try to avoid commercial posting. I will be buying a Sponsor Banner for this in May.

Just to clarify, this is Saturday June 9th only? or 9th and 10th?

Also, what is typical weather for that area in June? Humidity?

June 9th gotta check a calendar for the day . Weather is usually pleasant . We will have pavilion tents set up. Bring what ever you wish to trade and of course your guitars. We will have a Jam area set up , the same as last time . Steve Roberson and RC Tonewoods will have a lot of wood for you guys and gals to pick from.
