The UK’s biggest guitar event, The Guitar Show returns to New Bingley Hall in Birmingham between 25-26 February 2017 with a larger line-up of brands and more space than ever, the organiser says.
Significantly, 2017 will see the Birmingham event expand into a new acoustic area for its third year, with the organiser promising ‘suitably quiet’ surroundings for visitors to try acoustic instruments.
The rock’n’roll elements of the show remain very much intact though, with exhibitors including Laney – which celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2017 – Marshall, Fender, PRS Guitars, Yamaha, Line6, Roland, Blackstar, Orange, Lag, Diezel, Vigier and Dean confired at the sell-out show.
On the Live Stage, Guitar and Bass Magazine editor Chris Vinnicombe is to present a series of ‘Meet Your Maker’ interview and Q&A sessions over the weekend involving Orange, Bare Knuckle Pickups, Patrick James Eggle and Thorpy FX.
Also on the Live Stage, Brit rock four-piece Joan Ov Arc will also be appearing in support of their latest Gil Norton (Foo Fighters, Pixies)-produced album ‘Ride Of Your Life’. A complete Live Stage line-up will be confirmed in the coming weeks.
