Having exhausted all my potential NAMM badge contacts, I've come to the sad realization that this year I will have to attend vicarously through all of my fellow forum NAMM attendees. (unless a last minute hail-mary pans out...PM me for free travel on SWA!) Post plenty of photos... especially of the '08 LE, and my future SR5 Sterling...or Bongo 6!!!!! On a happier? note, my 11-year-old daughter is already exhibiting signs of EBMM GAS. Having received her first guitar for Christmas...(Axis), we were watching Luke rip it up on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" (such an amazingly sick version, it'll give you chills!!!) Her first comment was "what a cool guitar, I LOVE those black sparkles!" GAS starts early! Have fun at NAMM, take lots of pictures, and post before, during and after! -Capt. Don
