Discover new, vintage and handbuilt instruments

 

Whether you’re looking for new, vintage or handbuilt guitars, basses, amps, effects, parts, accessories etc., you’ll find it among the local and international exhibitors at the show.

Retailers, wholesalers, luthiers and custom builders as well as private gear heads showcase their fascinating instrument collections and let you sample and buy all the gear you absolutely cannot live without. Many exhibitors run special ’Show Promotions’ so don’t miss out on a good bargain.

 

Beyond exhibitors – enjoy the CLINICs

 

Beyond the long list of exhibitors, Danish and International artists as well as gear professionals are headlining the show’s CLINICs, in which talks, sessions and demonstrations will give you an amazing insight into the world of guitars and basses.

This year, the line-up spans from Ida Nielsen, former Prince bassist, who will tell about her captivating experiences and demonstrate her incredible technique, over Greg Koch masterfully handling his six-string, to the well-known YouTubers Dan and Mick from That Pedal Show.
