What They're Saying...
"Finally a show that's set up for acoustic fanatics. Quiet, spacious display rooms, so you can really test drive each guitar. Very intimate, and very helpful to us in terms of reaching players and customers directly." -Steve Patrino, President, The Music Link
I thought it was a great show with lots of promise for the future. I'd highly recommend it for both exhibitors and fans of fine guitars.

Alvas Music is very happy with the way your ACIshow went. Very professional and a really cool relaxed atmosphere; the kind musicians like to hang out at. We appreciate the opportunity to attend and to be the first dealer in the US to exhibit the new LAG Guitars.

We had such a great time and so did our friends.I think it was one of your best shows, Great music, great guitars and really nice people too!

"I see this as the way Acoustic Guitar Shows should be, it really works well" (referring to the concept of having the Exhibitors in individual rooms sharing a common hallway and sound isolated from others) [ Loni and I got to know JR quite well as he flew in from Texas and stayed for the whole show. He is quite a guitar player and singer too Dennis]

We just wanted to thank the Acoustic Instrument Show and its producers, Dennis and Loni, for putting on such a fun and interesting event. I know this was the first one, but I know that it will grow and become an event that lots of people look forward to each year. I also want to thank you for allowing us to play at this event. The fans were great and really supported us. Looking forward to next year.

Hi Loni & Dennis - Just letting you know how much we enjoyed attending and performing at the ACI Show! We felt honored to play our show in the midst of such great other artists. The only problem we had was finding time to both hear the other performers and visit more of the vendors! (We did spend some quality time in the Fender room, where Sabrina swooned over a beautiful koa-wood tenor ukulele!) Congratulations on a wonderful inaugural event. We'd would love to come back again for next year's event.

To Dennis and Loni,
I wanted to write and say thank you again for inviting us out to play at the show. We had a great time, and I really enjoyed strolling through the various rooms and chatting with the instrument dealers in attendance.
Please do keep us in mind for next years show, as we would very much like to be a part of it again.
Best Regards Billy Moschella, Jr. and Serenity
