I have been avoiding it like the plague, but I finally have decided to show some guitars at the Miami guitar festival in April. I would love to have some pointers from those of you seasoned show vetrans as to what I should take with me, the type of guitar stands, any table mats, paperwork, give away stuff, etc. As f right now, I will have 2 guitars for showing, about 20 embroidered hats with my logo on them, and a 2 foot by 4 foot banner with my company logo on it. Do I need to bring chairs, stools, picks, etc with me? Anything else you can think of that I may need?

Talk to Newport/Miami Beach as to what they provide. You shouldn't need chairs or stools, those are usually provided. Sometimes they have table skirts and don't want you to use banners, etc. Your givaways are pretty much your decision. Something that will make an impact. Stands, again, your call. I've tried three different types and am not happy with any of them. There's no feeling like seeing a whole table full of guitars wobble as if they are going to fall. Make up a little repair kit to be prepared for last minute changes. Saddle shims, thick super glue, polish, ect. Of course strings. If you don't already, I'd suggest putting clear pickguards on them. LOTS AND LOTS of business cards! |
