It's on again ... Fender's annual presentation of its new lines.
Its free, ... its one night only (in each capital city) ... it has some great playing by a band put together from some Australia's most experienced session muso's and Greg Koch (US) ... and there's always a free guitar given away at each show to a lucky ticket holder
Here's the link to register for your free tickets ...

... for those who'll be drooling, bring you own bib!
Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!
SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)
Anyone in Sydney going to this? I should be going (month end at work pending..) would be good to catch up with any forumites

good work Scott and Andrew you can give us a report on the show. I'm going to the Perth show Thursday March 5th with my 4D mates Wayne and Glenn, so any Perth forum members let me know if you're going. When I originally booked it was sold out and I went on a waiting list and luckily there were 3 tickets free for us
