The Anaheim NAMM SHOW.  January 2004

We had a great time at the 2004 Anaheim NAMM show.  Wish we could have seen you all.  We didn't get as many pictures as usual because we were real busy, but we did manage a few.

  Our NAMM SHOW NINE guitars were well received with the most frequently heard comment being  " these are the best guitars Bourgeois has ever made".  Now, I don't know if that is true, I love my 1997 Slope D 12 Fret, but one thing for sure, every guitar in our booth looked great and sounded just wonderful (if I do say so myself).   Take a look for your self.  A good time had by all!  

Thanks for reading!

Below, Songwriter & Multi- instrumentalist  extraordinaire, Harvey Reid and his partner, Joyce Andrews spent a lot of time in our booth visiting and working on an idea for a JOMC for Harvey.  We are huge fans of music from both Harvey & Joyce.  Check them out at www.woodpecker.com.

We are hoping to begin work on a guitar for Harvey Reid soon! (click on photo for big version)

We have almost finished working on the Martin Simpson Presentation model that Martin ordered last year at the NAMM show.  He stopped by to play our Limited Edition LC6 Presentation Model.  The picture below shows Dana with Martin and the Presentation.  The guitar we are building for Martin features the same Mother of Pearl Deco Block inlay on the fingerboard. 

Martin ordered one "Martin Simpson Presentation" for himself and a second one for his shop...  It should be at Dream Guitars by the first of March! (click on photo for big version)
