2019 Dallas International Guitar Festival Highlights
The 42nd Dallas International Guitar Show just happened. Many of the vintage elite call the Dallas Show the biggest and best of all United States guitar shows.
I had a chance to catch up with show producer Jimmy Wallace a few months ago. A true guitar gentleman, evidenced through his notable avoidance at self promotion, his passion for his Dallas Guitar Show was obvious. Jimmy is also a maker of electric guitar pickups of every variety, and like all of us, on the quest for the ultimate tone.
Noteworthy Appearances
Guitars West was in attendance and that always makes things fun and interesting. I’m told Mercedes was obsessing over The Kinks Gibson Flying V...who can blame her?
Also in attendance with an awesome display of Les Pauls was the legendary Drew Berlin with Taylor Barefoot.
Bursts, Bursts and more Bursts!
Vintage Guitar Dealer Gary Dick with the pickup legend himself, the great Seymour Duncan.
Timm Kummer, vintage guitar guru with Virtual Guitars always comes up with interesting finds.
We’ll follow up with Jimmy once the dust settles and get back to you with any cool stories from him.
We enjoy your comments and if you were at the Dallas Show, feel free to comment and share some of your pics with us.

Strat to Tele headstock conversion! I filed the headstock by hand and sprayed the face black to match the body on this New York Pro brand guitar. Check out the process starting from the top left hand corner.

Multiple combinations. I came up with this wiring design inspired by DGB's 3sw30 wiring, using 2 4PDT On-On-On toggle switches, the one closer to the tone pot manages the pickups tapping, so on top position all three pickups are tapped, in the middle position the neck and bridge pickups are full coil and the middle tapped and in the bottom position all three pickups are full coil. The switch at the bottom works in conjunction with the standard (CTS) 5 position switch. When this toggle switch is in the middle position, if acts as a standard strat wiring; when the toggle switch is down, in position 1 is bridge pickup, position 2 bridge and neck parallel, position 3 bridge and middle in series, position 4 bridge and middle in series and neck in parallel, and position 5 neck pickup; when the toggle switch is up, in position 1 is bridge pickup alone, position 2 neck and middle in series and bridge in parallel, position 3 neck and middle in series, position 4 neck and bridge in parallel and in position 5 neck pickup alone. So, removing all redundant position, this wiring and pickups give me 26 distint sounds. #straturday #fenderguitarjunkie #fenderguitar #fenderstratocaster #fenderstrat. #mimstrat #moddedstrat #modifiedstrat #electricguitar #guitar #strat #stratocaster #fendersofinstagram #stratpride
