I have just returned from the FUZZ Guitar Show 2010 in Gothenburg, which was exhausting and energizing at the same time. The interest was huge, and I had people in the booth most of the time. I didn’t have a lot of time to walk around the rest of the show this year, so unfortunately I cannot offer too many insights on the show as a whole, except that it was well organized as far as I am concerned and that there were a lot of visitors – I heard the number 2,500 on Saturday. Many attendees had travelled from Norway, Denmark and Finland to attend.

Our entire room was completely crowded on Saturday but little more quiet on Sunday. On the table, you can see Rick Toone’s neck with the intonation adjustable nut, which he describes further here.

I was sharing a room with True Temperament, Lehnert Amps, Lundgren Pickups and Moody Sounds – all great people and all great products.

Above are Anders and Per from True Temperament and Ola of Lehnert Amps while setting up.

Several people who swung by the booth knew of Strandberg Guitarworks already and were familiar with the web site. But I particularly appreciated a visit by Enrico Di Donato from Italy, “serial customer” of EGS bridges.

I had intended to have a sound clip competition, but since Saturday was so crowded and crazy, I called it off. During Sunday, I did manage to record some video clips which will be posted shortly.
