Take a road trip and head up to the Bearsville Theater and
Utopia Soundstage in Woodstock, N.Y., Oct. 25-27. Some of the Fine Archtops luthiers will be at the Woodstock Invitational Luthiers Showcase to display
their finest work. Because there will only be 50 exhibitors and two venues
total, this is a great chance to see these luthiers at their best. Only
acoustic instruments will be shown – everything from classical guitars to
banjos, ukuleles and more. And if you want to play one of these instruments,
quiet rooms will be available, so you’ll be able to hear what you’re playing!
If you’re interesting in learning more about guitars,
tuning, finger-picking and more, sign up for a workshop or clinic. They are
only $35 per person and your payment is due at the door.
And for you history buffs, there will be a special exhibit
of antique, historic, rare, contemporary and vintage instruments. Even if you’re
not a history buff, there is plenty more to see and hear. Live music and
demonstrations round out the weekend’s events. There is definitely something
for everyone at this fun and casual event!
The Woodstock Invitational Luthiers Showcase begins on Friday,
October 25 with the Tonewood Festival. Admission is free and the event runs
from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Utopia Soundstage Vendors Annex. And on Saturday
and Sunday, the showcase’s hours are 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. General admission is $20
a day or $30 for both days.
And, of course, Fine Archtops is always around to answer any
questions you may have or if you would like to purchase one of our quality
hand-crafted guitars. You can visit us at www.FineArchtops.com.
