There's just a little over one week left until the 2nd Woking Boutique Guitar Show at Fiery Bird on Saturday October 11th

If you didn’t make the first one - you really missed out! Check out my Inaugural Woking Show write-up to get a flavour of how good that first show was back in March - it genuinely had amazing vibes - in fact all the March shows - including The Birmingham Guitar Show and the London Synth and Pedal Expo - all had a really friendly and chilled ambience to them - and all three were a joy to navigate - where I often struggle to get around at the Birmingham show.

The Woking Boutique Guitar Show is mostly that - so I’ve split the Exhibitor roster into sections - as they appear on the Exhibitor listing!

We have 28 Luthiers - which is as fine an assembly as you will find anywhere - some amazing homegrown talent there!

Then we have a select 6 Pedal Brands - all friends of mine and superb at that craft. We will enjoy a rare appearance of Nic from Empty Head Effects - who are based in Mainz, Germany, while Nic has roots in the Woking area!

We have Pickups and Bridges, a single Amp representative, Kris from Lost Leathers, and presumably Crimson competitor - the Guitar Making School.

The sophomore show is near double the inaugural one - with double the floorspace.

The Fiery Bird venue is just 5 minutes walk along from Woking Station - and you’re right on the edge of the town centre really - super handy location - with decent parking for the exhibitors!

The Fiery Bird is at 32 Goldsworth Rd - GU21 6JT - incredibly easy to navigate on foot. By car there are some odd one-way systems in the area - but generally pretty straightforward too!

40 exhibitors is a lot to get around within the 10:00 - 16:00 time slot - but I will do my best. Most f the same exhibitors have returned from the first show - where the overall roster is pretty much double that!

Obviously I will be prioritising my pedal buddies first - and then doing my best to get around all the luthiers!

Also there on the day will be Guitar Geek Andy Ferris - doing his usual excellent videography - will be good to make proper contact with Andy at last - hitherto its just been greetings!
