| Huge Fender stand with sections for Guild, Gretsch, Jackson.
Not an O in sight. I asked the guy and he said he thought they were in the acoustic hall. (So why were the Guilds and the Fender acoustics on the main stand?)
No Os in the acoustic hall either.
I used to moan each year about the old distributor but at least he usually had a handful of Os on display.
Really pathetic given that only Marshall, Yamaha and Roland had stands as big as Fender. |

I've noticed that over HERE we call 'em "booths",
OverThere it's either "stands" or "stalls" . . . |

| How's it a booth if it's about a half acre in size with no walls? |
