Circa (John Slobod) Meet Up at Schoenberg on Monday, Jan 28

[justonwo]

For those of you in the SF Bay Area, John Slobod will be visiting on Monday, January 28th. I've arranged to have a little get together at Schoenberg that day (when they are normally closed). I'll have my 3 Circas with me:

OM - Adi top and Madrose back and sides
000-12 - Adi top and Brazilian back and sides
000-12c - German top with German maple

Also, Schoenberg currently has a 2016 Euro spruce and maple 00-12 in stock and available for immediate purchase. I've played this guitar and it's phenomenal.

For those of you in the area, it'll be a unique opportunity to play a small variety of Circas and meet John, who is an awesome dude. If you're considering a commission, this will be a good chance to hear examples that cover a pretty broad spectrum of what John can do. I find it's always helpful to have a common reference point with a known guitar when trying to build something new.

Time will be 1:30 on Monday, January 28th. Schoenberg Guitars in Tiburon.

106 Main St.
Tiburon, CA 94920

Yay! Juston, thanks for arranging this cult meeting.

[SJ VanSandt]

Wish I could be there. I haven't heard one of John's guitars in person and I sure would like to.

Dang that sounds fun. Steve Baughma's Circa is one of the nicest guitars I have played. You should see if you can get him to show up.

[Doug Young]

Hey Juston, that sounds like fun, I may be able to make it.

[M Sarad]

I will see what I can do.

Yes! Would be great if you guys came.

It is a long shot but possible. I will pencil it in...

[FormerFoodie]

Wow. I'd love to attend.

A few years back, I was in Portland, Maine for a business trip. As luck would have it, John was in Massachusetts at the time so I wasn't able to meet John in person.

I'm hopeful to attend. If there's interest, I would gladly bring along my two Circas (OM28 adi/braz, OM28 adi/maple).

Thanks for organizing!

Haha! I didn't want to be presumptuous, but very glad to bring my Circas to be sampled as well.

I think it'll be a fun time. Eric is great, and I'd love to meet John in person. Let's hope my schedule cooperates!

[justonwo]

The more the merrier, FormerFoodie. Reservation has been made.

[M Sarad]

I have friends interested. One from Santa Rosa and another in Mill Valley. Any developments on time?

[justonwo]

Matt, I’m working on it. I’m thinking about 2:00 in the afternoon but am waiting to hear back from James at Schoenberg. I should know tomorrow.

[M Sarad]

Thanks Juston. I’ll bring my Brondel.
