Guitar Fest LIVE! – A success for DGG!


DGG had been busy all summer long getting ready to display our handy work at this year’s Guitar Fest LIVE! in Livermore, CA. After countless long days and nights to get ready, we packed up the truck and headed to the Bankhead Theater. Eric Carey and James Bent jamming with Dean Gatewood Guitars!

After a few location changes, we finally got our booth up and running. We were able to proudly display 10 guitars and basses – including our brand new semi-hollow guitar model. The booth was heavily visited all day and the open exhibition hours were closed out by a great jam session with James Bent (guitar) and Eric Carey (drum).

Thanks to everyone who came out to check us out! And thanks to the organizers of Guitar Fest LIVE! for their support and giving us this great opportunity – especially This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

We are proud to welcome my friend,

Joe Steinmetz to Dean Gatewood  Custom Guitars




Joe has been in and around what's happening in the music industry for well over 30

years. As a guitarist, he's personally met, know and played with some of the finest

musicians in Northern California.

Joe's music industry experience is as uniquely diverse as it is expansive. From being

an in-demand live track studio recording artist to composing music for local bands to being

a close friend and confidant of custom builders and recording artist to representing manufactures

at the NAMM trade show, Joe has gained the reputation of being a passionate, caring person

who is very knowledgeable, reliable and multifaceted.

For what ever reason Joe has gone out of his way to help me with my guitars and I am quite thankful

to have him aboard. His years of tireless hands-on experience seeking through understanding of all

the many aspects of what goes into making a guitar sound great, more than qualifies him on the roll of

marketing and product development her at Dean Gatewood Custom Guitars.

I just got back from the ANAHEIM NAMM show

Thanks to Joe S.  I was a guest and attended my first NAMM show.

Thank You Charlie , Joe D, Mike and Joe S for the support and the

inside track there. Thanks also to my friends at the NADY Booth.

Our after HR. parties were great. I got a chance to talk to some of my

suppliers and put faces to names. Ran into some old music friends too.

I'm working to get a booth at the Summer NAMM in Nashville. We will see?

If not next Jan I "WILL" be in Anaheim with a booth. To much to say and I

will just leave it at  that.

Me and  Dean Z of DEAN GUITARS

Thanks Seymour for the time and help with my pick ups

also Evan for the quick response. Still a great company !
