Summer NAMM Preview

“Gentlemen, start your engines!” We can’t help but lapse into auto racing jargon as we get revved up for the Summer NAMM show, July 22 – 24 in Indianapolis. If you’re coming to the show, make sure to pull into booth #2200 and meet Seymour W. Duncan, Rick Turner and the rest of the SD and D-TAR pit crews.

You can learn more about D-TAR as well as check out the newest offerings from Seymour Duncan / Basslines. You'll get your chance to demo the new D-TAR Mama Bear 32-bit digital acoustic guitar pre-amp. Not to be outdone, Seymour Duncan will debut the brand-spankin'-new SFX-02 Tweak Fuzz and Basslines will roll out the Phase II Passive soapbar. Also, make sure to stop by the booth early to get your tickets to Saturday's main event, Muriel Anderson's All Start Guitar Night.
