Summer NAMM Nashville, July 21-23

Anyone going?

Like the past 20 shows, I am hoping for a few small rack mountable items that have only been available as either "PODS" or "boat anchors" for 10 years.

Line 6 & Roland both produced excellent sounding guitar processors last product cycle. Too bad they are also big enough to use for an artillery assault.

I guess people are too busy with goofy-assed videos to discuss new gear.

I never been to a NAMM show, but would love to attend one. Maybe some day I will make it. I hear they show some great things there.

Fishman is supposed to be releasing a bass harmonizer in a week or so that adds an octave plus a 5th to the root note. Akai used to make a similar pedal that went for about $99 brand new. However, that pedal's been discontinued, and now they sell on Ebay for about $450.

I've been holding off on getting an EHX POG for one of these units. I could definitely find some uses for it in a single guitar situation, especially under leads when I'm stuck playing straight 8ths and can't busy up the bass line with any runs.

Does anybody have a link to comprehensive coverage for this? Nobody seems to cover it anymore and I really don't want to sift thru a parade of youtube videos (you know...like some of our Rockpage threads).

I meant equipment coverage. For instance Sweetwater still covers Winter NAMM, but doesn't bother with Summer NAMM. I am looking for something like this:

This is the only thing along those lines I could find and it is very limited to only a few products.
