Guitars4You will be exhibiting at the forth coming North West Guitar Show at Haydock Park on Sunday 14th May - So come along and say hi if you are new or a regular

Hard to believe this is now the 20th anniversary of the North West Show, albeit in a few different venues - Haydock Park is probably the largest of all the shows with a huge selection of new, used, vintage guitars, amps, pedals and accessories - some cool, some wacky, some unusual and many classic models

Looks cool! I'm quite close by so if I can I'll pop down/over.

Unfortunately I can't make it but make sure to pop by and say hello to Andrew and Elaine.

It's in my back yard, Mark, but I can't be there as we'll be on holiday in Cyprus, as we discussed at the shop.

I'm loving the '72 SG more and more - it's so light!

Hope you and the family enjoyed your hols in Portugal!

Cheers,
Al.

It's a very large show, I'm surprised there has not been more about it on FB - are there other threads I have missed?

Kempton Park Race Course in the Autumn for you will be a good option - same organizer as North West Show - NW Show is currently his largest show but Kempton has the potential to be bigger - I'll post info etc nearer the time

There seemed to be an awful lot of over priced stuff that were at the last show.

I did not really get chance for a look around - tried to do that before 10am and the doors opened but got tied up with a bacon butty and latte - did okay and brought a couple of guitars but they came to me as against me walking about

My mate purchased a superb Guild X375 Stratford - clean and no issues - ultra cool and your type of guitar - bit of an ES-5 Switchmaster - not selling it I believe

You're only allowed to go if you come back with a Helix and an R8

Yes that was an amazing looking thing. Don't think I've ever seen a vintage guitar of that age in such exceptional condition.

The individual you're referring to seemed uncharacteristically enthusiastic about it!
