I have gone to summer NAMM for at least 1O YEARS. This year, Gibson, Fender, Ibanez (Tama), Suzuki/Hammond and JazKat are not showing up. There are over 20 booths still available.
Right now Rory will be in town, so a visit would be nice.
I'd like to meet with Jeff Hale to look at D Angelico guitars, and there is a Godin crossover I'd like to look at, but not much else makes me want to drive 9 hours (both ways), spend $250.00 on hotel and parking.
Plus, Rory could get a call and be gone. Last year, I was all cranked to see Tony Monaco, and Hammond pulled out at the last minute.
Anyone else showing up?
