Exeter Corn Exchange, 11 November
There’s two lots of good news for Mansons Guitar Shop this year – the Exeter store isn’t just bringing its show back for 2017, it’s also celebrating its 25-year anniversary. With guitar shows in the south of England becoming more rare, this one is looking to be Mansons’ best yet. Alongside a host of gear exhibited by top names, the last show in 2015 hosted a performance by Steve Howe and the launch of a new Mansons Guitar Works’ Matt Bellamy model. We spoke to Manson Guitar Works and Mansons Guitar Shop MD Adrian Ashton about this year’s event.
It’s great to see the show returning – is there anything you want to do differently this year?
