Dotson Guitars is proud to have exhibited at this fabulous show! Held Sept. 8-10, 2023 and sponsored by Henriksen Amplifiers, exhibiting some of the finest new handmade archtop guitars ever to be gathered together in one place. Henriksen wisely prohibited any amplifiers on the exhibit floor, allowing people to better hear the guitars they were trying out. (Demo amps were provided in separate quiet rooms.) In addition, there was all day and evening entertainment featuring many highly talented performers including luminaries such as Frank Vignola, Jimmy Bruno, Pasquale Grasso, Clint Dadian, Bruce Foreman, Jocelyn Gould, Howard Alden, and the list goes on and on! We're certainly looking forward to the next show in September 2024.

The Tenth Woodstock Invitational Luthier's Showcase, a three day extravaganza of amazing craftsmanship, great performances, workshops, lectures and other presentations, as well as a tonewood tent and dealers of pearl, guitar parts and other guitar oriented gear. The level of work is exceedingly high. Only new, handmade, acoustic instruments are permitted, and no amplifiers are allowed in the exhibit space. Dotson Guitars was honored to be invited to participate this year.
