The Montreal Jazz Festival is one of, if not the, best jazz festivals in the world (see above) and recently, something to thrill the fingerstyle guitarist was added – the Montreal Guitar Show.

Devoted exclusively to guitar luthiers, the 2007 show offered a great assemblage of acoustic guitars and the 2008 show will offer an even bigger and better one. Luthiers will include Canadian, Quebec, Argentinian, American, Hungarian, French and German guitars. A small sample of luthiers assembling include, to name just a few, Linda Manzer, Michael Greenfield, Peter Hopkins, Tim McKnight, Tom Ribbecke, Ervin Somogyi, Rick Turner, and many others.

A new concert series, Guitarmania, will be added this year. Some of the performers include Andy McKee, Don Ross, Martin Taylor, Jim Hall and Pierre Bensusan.

DonŐt miss out; see it all at The Montreal Guitar Show, June 27th to 29th, 2008.
