I'll have a demo room there, so I'll be around.

I went to the show yesterday with my brother. 1st time I've ever been to one. I got a chance to meet Richard Goodsell who made my Custom 33 and Henry at Redplate who makes amps I wish I owned. I played his TweedyVerb and was very impressed. I hope to make something like it someday but I doubt I would try to fit it all in a Champ chassis

It was educational to see the small/aspiring builders trying to get some exposure. Maybe I'm a curmudgeon but it occurred to me that most of them were doomed. How many more overbuilt, expensive Marshall clones with some minor twist will the market bear? I wish them all the best of luck because I harbor fantasies of joining their ranks at some point but it doesn't look easy to find a workable niche.

But for me the show was a total success because I got a free amp chassis! They were holding a giveaway/drawing at the end of the show of donated merchandise and I snagged a prepunched 18-watt chassis. Woop!

Is there ANY word on ANY future shows? Nothing on the AmpShow website. Any idea what the cost was to the exhibitors?

Apparently it was $1280 per exhibitor suite- http://www.ampshow.com/10thAmpShowResForm.pdf

From other sources it would appear that the next one will be in NY/NJ in June 2015. http://ampshow.fanbridge.com/fan_questi ... 1228585478
