I am not sure if my posts in general are taken seriously or if too many folks read them... I have been known to talk out of my rear end from time to time..

but this time I know what I am talking about and speak the truth...

There is a new museum that opened in north Phoenix Arizona called MIM (not made in mexico) -- Musical instrument Museum... And it's by far the best museuem Arizona has ever known... Better than the Heard.... If you live in Arizona or are visiting... Don't miss it !!! They have some guitars in there but that is not what impressed me... Fender has it's own display area... I was disappointed however that there were no vintage Guilds to be seen... We spent 2.5 hours in there and we still didn't see all the exhibits..

It's definitely an amazing museum and absolutely worth a visit if you're ever in the area. We've been proud to be a part of the effort!
