Holy ****! You can test Gibson
I am sure if you do this kind fo stuff in malaysia
By the end of the day, we will see the gibson in pieces
Is this event there every year? are the things cheap?

Yeah it was pretty cool. They don't really bother about the players testing it. There are plenty stuff to try out here, pedals,multiefx, fenders, gibbies, schecters, amps, drums, etc.
It is held every year about the same time. Will go again next year

There are some good bargains but I could get better prices at the my local shops with some haggling. But nevertheless there it's good eye candy

Ok will try and post more pics.

Gibson LP 2008...oohh so shiny


Family of robots






Marshall Booth


Colourful stacks

Yay! Zakk Wylde Flying V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whoa.. thanks for sharing. So far we've seen only Gibsons and some Deans, any others? No fenders?

although real amp and cab/speaker are the best, but the Revalver MkIII displayed at the background is the one you never can miss. some compared the real amp with the ampsim revalver, you absolutely cannot tell which is real which is ampsim (real amp recorded into PC, and ampsim rendered within DAW). so if you're into software solution, get revalver, best of the best, cost you under rm1000. yes, better than whatever pod you have, as many serious players around the world claimed.

Vintage Guitars .. affordable guitars


Indie Guitars


Some Local brands




GAS GAS


Lick Library demos


Nice display of strings


Pimping guitars with lights and blings. This one is interesting as the inlays actually lights up and blinks.

Those Patrick Eggles are sweeet.. Did you managed to test out some of the guitars displayed?

whose that singing at the last pic?
do u have pic of ur own trying out the guitars? haha

I love that Union Jack Razorback!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the last installment of the pics. The rest are pretty much samey.
I've only tried out the Gibsons... but I was there to check out amps & pedals instead and didn't have much time to do much testing. Maybe next year











and not forgetting SpongeBob


Any so with so much temptations, I decided to save some money this time and bought some tshirts instead. Some magazines were given away free and some bought for really cheap. Been given a Behringer UM300 Ultra Metal pedal for free as well. Overall excellent trip but wished I could have gotten then Peavey Windsor but I can't be arsed to lug it all the way home. Might save up for the Blackstar H5-H Amp head instead.

wow i didnt know they made star and v shaped acoustics haha

I would love to get that ML Acoustic....... But must get my Elvis Epiphone first

THe Orange shirt is cool! Can I have one?

I like how in the overseas that, to encourage reading perhaps, people always giving away (good) reading materials for free, while in here we have to buy them at extortionate prices!!

Wow a free pedal? Sweet! I see GT-10s and wow a twin fretless. This is so cool. I wish something like that happens in KL. They dont do Ibanez and Fender Strats? What bout Martin?

nice.. i want the shirt too! lol!

Didn't see many Ibanez around. I think there's more selection at the local shop. There is a Fender booth but not making much of a presence. I would say it's bad booth design as it's closed up... not very welcoming though.

i think i just had an orgasm by went through this thread is this NAMM?

whoa.......i wished i was there....
now i got reason to visit relatives in uk dy...hahaa

holy cow

when's the next trip? i'm coming

Have you heard of how Down's guitarist Pepper Keenan got his first guitar?

...he stole it from a friend's house after knowing that the guy was dead!
