I went to a guitar/music show, almost in my back yard at a local convention centre, today. In the upstairs acoustic room, some familiar OLF'ers were displaying their instruments.

Fred Tellier (and me)Image

All the guitars looked and sounded great, and got lots of road tests!
Also there, but not displaying was Steve Denvir.

I had a good time and it was fun spending some time with my fellow OLF'ers.

Here's another displayer from yesterday's show. We met him a couple of months ago at the Exotic Woods Guitar Day, where he won two best in show awards for his stunning electrics, with Tony Karol winning for best acoustic guitars.
At 19 years old, with no woodworking background, his work and design were head and shoulders above everything else at the show!

Had a great time seeing everyone. Thanks for the pics Alex.

And not to pee on what we have here at the OLF, it’s also nice to be part of a “non-virtual” community.

It is always fun to spend time with this group of guys, we only seem to cross paths a few times per year and it should be more often.

Always fun to hang out! I love the chance to put some live faces to the names I interact with online. Let’s do it again soon!
