Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | Matt Smith's Chop Shop Master Class @ The 6 String Ranch !!! Saturday July 9, 9am-5pm with a 2-hour lunch break from 12-2pm. The class is open to any intermediate to advanced guitarists looking to expand their knowledge of all styles of improvisation, open tunings, beginning Slide, rhythym chops, and learning “the secret of everything” which details how to take your composition to the next level musically. Cost is $200/person. No credit cards. If you’ve been looking for an excuse to visit Austin, this is a good one. Visit the 6String Ranch Event page on Facebook ( https://www.facebook.com/events/493706647487674/ ) to let them know if you plan on attending so they can get a head count. If you are attending, you will be contacted with the address. There is no "sign up" other than the facebook Event, and bring cash or check to the event. More information can be found at http://www.6stringranch.com/ |

Location: Utah | I'll be trying to bid my work schedule so I can do this. Austin is one of my favorite cities to visit. Is this an OFC only event?
I'm going to have to hit the woodshed and start practicing so I don't totally embarrass myself. |

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest | It's going to be tailored (excuse the pun) to Ovation guitars and the advertising is focused to the Ovation FanClub as we are helping to promote the event. But if you are asking if you can bring a non-member, as long as their spot is paid for, I don't see an issue. |

Location: 6 String Ranch | That is true. This is something aimed at the OFC members. If one of them want to borrow a guitar when here just let us know, there are a few hanging around. Beats flying with one. And it is "The Secret Of Everything" Anyone coming that has the chopshop book, bring it. |

And it is "The Secret Of Everything"
Thanks for that clarification, Beal. The "Scent of Everything" was a little unnerving (especially if you spent any time at all around some of these guys at the old OFC Factory Tours...) but I say that with love. |
