DMEvarts, LLC is pleased to announce that the 2014 Douglas County Guitar Show & Colorado Luthier Expo will be on Saturday, June 28th at the Lutheran High School in Parker, CO.

If you want to exhibit or sell at the show, register early and select the best table, booth, and/or sponsorship options that fit your needs as soon as possible. You won’t be billed until after May 1st. Reserving your space and making a commitment now helps us budget the radio and other advertising campaigns that are planned.

This year we will give away a near-mint 2001 Vintage Sunburst finished Epiphone/Gibson “Dot” guitar with a hard shell case as our high-end door prize. The opportunity to win this over $400 value instrument should help to encourage a great turnout!

Now, to all my out of state Facebook friends that have not yet made vacation plans for the summer. The Rocky Mountain region has a great deal to offer! Please consider visiting our nation’s “Purple Mountains Majesty” and consider including a side trip to Parker Colorado on June 28th – This guitar show will be a “must-see” destination!

Stan is a co sponsor of this show and will be doing a luthier presentation focusing on a 1962 Fender Jazz-master electric guitar restoration. Be sure to “save the date”!

If you haven’t reserved your space – do it soon! – I just feel like something good is about to happen…
