In Country

Hello all!

We've made it to Anaheim, and we're camped out in a hotel not far from the Convention Center. We're not really looking forward to setup tomorrow, but what can you do?

Here's the breakdown of events in the booth:

Aaron Manka, Trillium artist, will be in the booth Thursday and Friday. Be sure to stop by and check out his signature model amplifier and hear from the horse's mouth how Trillium works for him.

Art Nace, audio genius and tone guru will be in the booth on Friday and Saturday to answer any questions you might have about the technical details of the M1-7 chassis. Be sure to ask him about his days with NASA.

Scott Campbell, co-founder of Trillium, will be debuting his new five-string bass guitar, The Octave. Make sure you check it out and experience its majesty!

That's all for now, be sure to check back again tomorrow for pics and ramblings from Setup Day!
