    I live in Dallas, but haven’t been to the guitar show in years. The last one I went to, I recall sitting at a picnic table, in doors, eating lunch and the only other person at the table was Eric Johnson, also eating lunch. We both said “hey,” and just minded our own business. I don’t think anyone in the general area knew who he was. As bad as I wanted to fan-boy him with questions, I decided to let him enjoy the peace and quiet.
    Right after that I played a brand new Martin D18, that was only $1200. They were selling for around $1800 at the time, so I couldn’t tell if something was wrong with it. Some dude was playing an electric, way too loud, and way too close, so I couldn’t gear it. Still wish I’d bought it.

    I've lived in Dallas for 30+ years. Used to go to the Dallas show every year back in the 90's - 2000's and there were easily 3 times more people attending and twice as many dealers. It's shocking the lack of public walking around for a Saturday. Reverb and ebay have taken a big bite out of the guitar shows.

    • @aflashfloodofgear

    Great coverage! I’ve always done the Arlington Show. Vendors bringing the same guitars at the same prices..PREACH!
    Regarding T-15’s, et al other T guitars…most need some neck angle adjustment. I stay away from using Hartley’s micro adjust grub screw in lieu of a wooden shim of some sort. The Peavey necks are two pieces of rock Maple glued together. I’d be leery of cranking the neck too much with that adjuster.
    As always, enjoy you alls videos. All the best!

    I dig your channel, glad to meet you at the show.
    I live in DFW. Only go to Dallas and Arlington shows. And, I agree (no shade), but I feel it’s almost like a classic car show in Dallas. People are not trying to sell/trade/buy as much as Arlington. They have the same stuff year to year same price or higher. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Im watching the Dallas show and i saw a guitar that i sold to somebody in 2013 i think in Texas in youre booth that looks exactly like mine is a PRS Custom 22 in 3 color sunburst with moon inlaya and Zebra pickups . I had a similar guitar and i changed the pickups for Dragón 1 in Zebra color just like the one isaw in youre Dallas show. Wide Fat Neck also.

    I've watched some of your guitar show videos and can't see any people around. We do quite a few shows in the UK and at busy times it can be difficult to move between the stands because of how many people there are, so I'm surprised to see the place almost empty. Is it because these are all trade days and there are no members of the public?

    • @aflashfloodofgear
      @aflashfloodofgear  Год назад

      Looks like we need to go to the UK haha.
      It's a bit of everything really. It easier to film the whole room early or on dealer days (it does get busy at the booth so can't film everything or everyone). That being said, a lot of the guitar shows here aren't what they used to be, especially compared to the 90's and earlier so we're told.

    • @ChickenboneJohn
      @ChickenboneJohn Год назад

      We took a couple of years off doing guitar shows in the UK as we felt we'd sort of got to a saturation state in terms of selling our product, we were seeing the same people at the same shows, then Covid kicked in. Since then we've been carefully doing a few more selected shows. For us footfall is everything, if there are not enough customers (punters as we call them in UK), then we won't make the sales. It's very interesting seeing an insight of how it happens in another part of the world. Best of luck!

    @robyates136 Год назад

    Every time I've done the DFW area shows I have exactly the same observation. Same guitars, same (too high) prices. I don't understand the business model - maybe if they sell one guitar for double its worth and probably 3-4x what they paid it makes the twice-per-year show costs worthwhile. I've never been close to buying anything.

    I saw a guitar I was interested in at the Karch Music booth @11:27 so I looked them up online, last IG post was 102 weeks ago and their website doesn't work, too bad. You'd think sellers like this would want to have a wider market but I guess they don't want my money, oh well.

      Most Aerodynes are Japan market only, so you don't see them much elsewhere. That and they have some more modern features (as I'm sure you know) that some might not like. That all being said, Fender has been doing some for the US market like their new Aerodyne Special strat!

  • @bldallas
    @bldallas 9 месяцев назад

    Serious question, it seems when you go to shows, you buy a lot more gear than you sell; is that true or just the edit. Also, if true is that your strategy.
    It seems to me the costs associated with traveling to and working a show, then the costs to ship the stuff you later sell on the Interweb, would make it hard to turn a profit on those sales.
    I’m genuinely interested in your thoughts. Thanks. Big fan.

      Yeah, it's not as streamlined as it could be, but with 3d printing being so popular, those nema 17 steppers can be bought for next to nothing nowadays. Makes sense from a business perspective.

      @@aflashfloodofgear I've tried that a lot of times with many people showing prototypes. It's rarely appreciated lol but you could pass on to look at something like low-torque pots (speed knobs!) and PCB/printed motors. You can't get much cheaper than a motor printed on a PCB. They're also flat and super efficient so no heat.
      There are several types - they should do the testing to find out which one produces least aggressive EMI (or, possibly, is least victimized by it) and use it.
      I am 100% sure that if they cold call the handful of companies that already work with them that they'll find a partner or two - "alternative" tech is always looking for a platform and a voice, especially useful stuff.
      But yeah it's totally stuff they had laying around lol it's PoC but honestly I think they were proving more to themselves that they could knock it together more than really being innovative.
      See why most people get angry when I redesign their whole product in front of them? Some guy is building a product on Twitch, and streaming it, and it's a product used for Twitch, so I guess he's trying to sit inside his market but man it got so painful one day watching him hardcode all this html java stuff for a component in a frame layer that I suggested a js framework...when he said "what's a framework but please, buy my product" I slapped my own mouth shut and killed the browser tab lol
      It's too hard to explain what I am - not self promoting but I'm "superdroid1" on LI; I put up like half my experience and then got bored
      But there's plenty there, even so. TLDR accident "retired" me a little early so I'm fairly stuck in place and and after 6 years I am getting *extremely* bored. I mean, look at how long this comment is just because someone answered...

    Well, those 2 vintage fender amps will only go up in value. But all those weird ‘mutt’ guitars won’t be easy to move….or make a profit on. I don’t know you, so maybe you know your clientele better than I do. Other than the Fender guitar reissues I’d never risk all that money on so many ‘oddball’ guitars. Stick to Fender and Gibson I’d say. Best of luck.
