I was lucky enough to be invited to show at the 2013 Cochrane Guitar show yesterday.
What a great time! Truly a small -town show tagged on the annual trade fair.
They managed to bring in some credible acts to augment the show - Don Ross and Colin James.
Don Ross was amazing! In concert as well as the Saturday workshop during the show.
The highlight for me was meeting Will Hamm, a local area luthier that I had not met until now.
He brought along a number of amazing instruments.
As well as being a very fine fellow, his design and build quality was simply jaw-dropping.
Here is a little shot of my booth:

Two great performers and a guitar show in little old Cochrane. I have to head East more often. I like them both a lot and that's a great looking table you have there Rob.

Cheers,
Danny

Nice looking bunch of guitars, Rob! How was the interest? I saw Don Ross a couple of times when he lived nearby. Great guitarist and entertainer.
