Not really digging the 'browse around' pretend show stalls thing - it seems to be slower than just going to the manufacturers website, and mostly just ends up at the manufacturers website to get "More Info".

Will the seminars/live events be available later to watch back? Some of them look interesting, but I havent a clue what PDT time is.

Pacific daylight saving time. So everything is -8 UK. And everything will be viewable on YouTube each day once the programme has finished for the day.

Absolutely! Here's a run-down of some of the interviews I did for the show - seriously, leaving me unsupervised on Zoom with these people - Brave move!



All the best

Likewise, though I’m not sure what choice they have right now. The events industry is truly suffering at the moment, and I really hope something can be done to support them and/or safely re-open shows and exhibitions somehow sooner rather than later

Day two's programme begins shortly. Tonight is the big one, with appearances from Jason Isbell, St Vincent, Joe Bonamassa and a whole lot more, all for free. https://guitar.com/live/

One of my favourite things from yesterday's lineup was the Daniel Donato masterclass. Just a wonderful player and some interesting insights on major/minor soloing. You can watch it here: https://guitar.com/live/events/cosmic-country-masterclass-with-daniel-donato/

Just had a quick browse and it looks fantastic.  Great line-up. How long will the performance be available for? Many to see and the Daniel Donato will need repeated viewings

Just watching the Tyler Bryant set, needs new jeans but what a cool guy.

Great stuff Chris.

Thanks! Almost everything will be hanging around on YouTube indefinitely aside from one or two with licensing issues.

Well done @chrisv and all at Guitar for putting this together, I thought it was great! Particularly liked the Heritage factory tour.

Big shout out to @chrisv and team for this. Loads of quality content there. Not all my cup of tea but really something for everyone. Respeck.

Thanks both! Everything's still hanging around on the /live site for a few weeks if there's something you missed but want to check out.

I loved this, especially Mrs Smith's irreverent contributions:

This was the funniest thing I've seen on YT for ages thanks to Mrs Smith.  Some valid points about guitar playing included too. 

It's the first video of the series that I have watched, will be going back to watch more over the next week.
