For all you guitar lovers out there. Just a note to say the 2007 Montreal Guitar Show has attracted the world's top guitar builders and will be taking place July 6-8. The show takes place during the Jazz Festival. Last year it was fun catching some amazing free Jazz in the street, and then stepping inside to check out some outstanding instruments. Now guitarists have an opportunity to check out the best handmade classical, archtop, acoustic, and gypsy guitars and if you're luck, buy them! You can of course demo the guitars in soundproof studios and hang out with your favourite luthier. For more info you can check out the website at http://www.montrealguitarshow.com
