Yeah, I saw him too. They also had Asturius from Japan that was really good. As for customs, Koolau had a custom that Noa Bonk made. I'm Korean and I didn't look at any of the Korean booths as we'll. The trip was fruitful as I got a Crossrock fiber glass case cheap. I was more interested in hanging out with Andrew from HMS.

Takumi had a really cool 8-string with a badge I hadn't heard of before - also Japanese. Anybody here remember what it was? Might be a brand to keep an eye out for in the future.
