News And Updates

Next week, Strandberg Guitarworks will be in Tokyo. My now good friend, and owner of #2, Shun Nokina has kindly arranged a .strandberg* showcase for Friday afternoon and evening. We already have 12 RSVPs, so a great time is expected! The video camera is coming along, so hopefully there will be some clips to show.

Sunday was an equally fun day, with lots of traffic in the booth. I still had far too little time to walk around and realize now that there were tons of things I should have looked for.

Here’s part of the motley crew – should have had a “before” picture as well:

Elias Kesh, who helped me out with booth duty (thanks!)

Trev Wilkinson, one of the big innovators in the guitar world!

And Thomas Nordegg again, he came by with Don and Rocket Richotte (check him out!)

Another great day passed. I met Thomas Nordegg, the super-hero guitar tech for Steve Vai and Zappa.

Caught a gig with one of my absolute favorite bands – Animals as Leaders

Tosin Abasi has to be one of the most interesting guitar players on the planet right now

Tosin had a chance to try out #6 on his own rig

and then later in the booth

Facebook friend Danny Thrasher came by

In the evening, I attended the All Star Guitar Night. The high points being Vicky Genfan, Andreas Öberg (accompanied by Stu Hamm) and Billy Sheehan.

Meet Strandberg Guitarworks at the NAMM show in Anaheim, CA on January 13-16, 2011! We will be exhibiting in Watson Guitars booth #1219 (Hall E), along with some other great people.

If you are a guitarist or luthier with good chops and want to help me out, there is a free pass to the show in it for you! You’ll need to learn my products and be prepared to take a share of the booth duty, as well as do a few guitar demos. Send me an e-mail if you’re interested, badge request deadline is December 15.
