You're only about an hour or so away from me, so if you are ever up by Lake Wallenpaupack stop by anytime and you can play them.

The third annual Fall Philly Guitar Show Members Meet is over,
and what a great time we had. A great turn out, great Member
support, Fabulous Guitars.
(I was told many times that we had the best Booth at the Show.)
MyLesPaul thanks everyone who participated, but I have to add…
Matt and Dave of Martin Six String Custom, outstanding support
from you. They saw we were going to be extremely short of space
with the huge turnout. They paid for us to have a third table! Thank you.
Even with the extra table, my apologies to Matt (WeirdOtis) and to
JPPR8, there just wasn’t any room left to display their guitars.
Leo (floyd84) brought a lot of really great guitars.
(He had to rent a big van to get them all to the show!)
He didn’t complain when we used up all his guitar stands, and made
him set up on the floor. He entertained the crowds with his guitar
playing. MyLesPaul can’t thank him enough.
Frank Pine, what can I say? You are the Fall Philly Guitar Show.
For the third year now, Frank has held Center Stage at the Members
Meet. Debuting the ‘59 Burst and the Octave Junior this year.
How much did Mr. Pine contribute? His two Murphy Aged Brazilian
Historics, which would have stolen the show any other year, didn’t
even get a mention this year. That was the depth of great guitars at
the MyLesPaul Booth! Thanks again, Frank.
fjminor was sanding down Brazilian Rosewood and other types of
fretboards so we could smell the difference. It was a real clinic,
a hands on wood demonstration.
Guitar Guru’s Tom Bartlett, Eric Ernest, MapleFlame, BCRGreg,
(I know I’m forgetting some, my apologies.)
sharing their knowledge, and answering questions. Thank you all for
your support!
My Grandson CJ, we could not have done this without him. Setting up,
tearing down, hauling gear and guitars, running errands, watching over
the Booth. He was working his butt off while we were having a good time.
Thank you, CJ. Great Job!
Thanks again to everyone that helped with the show, and all the Members
that came out to support us. You all make MyLesPaul, number one. :thumb:




Thanks Artie! It must have been a metric crap-ton of effort that went into this, but the scope of the booth was really, really impressive. I agree, best booth by an enormous margin. I'm going to try to make it for both days next year.

I'm also actually overjoyed that I didn't bring any of my guitars, as they would have been severely, majorly outclassed. :laugh2:

Sounds like I'll have to plan a day trip up there!

I still have more video to post, but I needed to take a break,
and have been working late (later than usual). I should have it
posted by the weekend.
