Salida Guitar Expo

 Printable Version

Sunday  March 1st

Chaffee County is home to many luthiers, and these expert makers of stringed instruments will be on hand to share their knowledge, love, and instruments. Bring a stringed instrument to sell or trade. Custom and vintage; acoustic and electric – all styles of stringed instruments will be represented and welcomed. The Expos is FREE from noon-5pm. Evening performances are sure to leave you itching to go home and pick up your guitar, mandolin, banjo, violin, or whatever you play.

 

5:30-6 p.m.
David Tipton playing the Chapman Stick

6-7 p.m.
Evolution of the Guitar – An informative discussion with live demonstrations on how the guitar has evolved from classical to electric. Musicians include Ed Lambert, Scott Adams, John Lusk, Bruce Hayes, Harper Powell, Chris Nasca and Jaquie Gipson. Demonstration on voicing an instrument by Jeff Bamburg.

7:30-8:30 p.m.
Concert with Jaquie Gipson, who plays both 6- and 12-string guitars and is an extraordinary fingerstyle guitarist. Her style incorporates melodic two-hand tapping and percussion techniques into more-or-less traditional fingerstyle playing.
