slavestate Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I completely forgot about this until this evening, It's the annual New York Guitar Show & Exposition this weekend. It's taking place in Merrick just outside of NYC on Long Island and should be something worth checking out. I think they'll have an area for individuals to drop off their stuff for sale or trade kind of like a "Chinese Auction" so that they can periodically check on inquires and offers, or so I would think. Either way, I am excited to see some of the oddball gear that might be there tomorrow. On the website it states that admission fee is $8.00 for adults and if you bring an amplifier to sell or trade you get $2.00 off. I know I will be bringing some gear myself to possible swap or sell, so get into it! I have no affiliation with any of the vendors or staff, I just felt some of you people might want another option for your weekends activities. Enjoy!

dem00n Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I just went to it. It was pretty cool, really tight though...needs more room. Prices were alright, i saw a few conversion les pauls, a lot of nice Gibsons. Didn't see a lot of oddball guitars, which is what i mostly love seeing at guitar shows.

slavestate Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 I went early, just as it opened at 10 am and it just seemed like a besides vendors that were there showing off their gear and/or products a bunch of personal vendors selling overpriced guitars. I didn't really see any great deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slavestate Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 That's what I am saying. The only deal I saw was for that aquamarine Kay with a beat up fingerboard. It might have been worth it... ...at $225? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
