German Beer is bad for me……
Musikmesse 2010 was great…hard work but great.
We have lined up distribution in several new regions and will be updating the website as we get orders in.
There have been some very interesting developments and some new ideas for products, which we will keep you informed about in the coming weeks…
The Acoustic Model got a run out at MM and the response is great. Tooling starts next week after we tweek the prototypes. So the less noisy of you can display your steel strings above the TV.
I could do with a months sleep now, but I don’t think that will happen somehow!!
Regards
Adrian

Hi Folks,
We’re gearing up for Musikmesse and hopefully the launch of a new product or two.
Scott is packing up the new brackets as we speak and I thought I would let you know a few things about the Hanger, to keep you entertained.
1. The Hangers will easily support the weight of a Bass Guitar, even if it’s made from lead.
2. The instructions we supply may seem a little complex, but if you look a the pictures as well, they aren’t. If you have any problems fitting the Hangers then just check the Video section and follow what Phil does. The reason the instructions are so in depth is that we really want you to fit the brackets correctly and not kill the cat with your PRS.
3. We at Wia understand that traditionally neck hanging systems have been used to wall mount your guitar. There are a couple of ‘angle’ hangers also available on the market, however, they don’t hang at ‘ALL’ angles, because you’re guitar would fall out, and kill the cat. Likewise, if your child/wife pushed upwards on your Strat it would come straight out of other ‘mounts’. WOODIES HANGER LOCKS IN THE STRAP BUTTONS SO THE GUITAR IS CLIPPED OUT BY THE USER, IT TAKES SECONDS AND THUS CAN BE USED TO HANG THE GUITAR UPRIGHT/ANGLED/UPSIDE DOWN/DOWNSIDE UP/ALL WAYS IMAGINABLE
4. Re. Previous bullet point: Woodies Hanger really is THE BEST GUITAR HANGER AVAILABLE.
- It is totally secure. THE GUITAR CANNOT FALL OUT/OFF.
- It is VERY easy to install, really, no kidding I put one up……..I’m a drummer.
- The Polycarbonate Brackets WILL NOT SNAP/BREAK. They make bullet proof glass out of the same stuff.
- The Hanger holds the Guitar at ALL ANGLES by the strap buttons NOT the neck.
- There isn’t an awful lot to see, the brackets are water clear and show the guitar off not the Hanger.
- Your mates will be jealous
Please email me if there is anything else I have missed.
See you in Germany

Hello all,
It’s been a busy few weeks, and now we’re getting ready to do it all again in Frankfurt.
Hall 4.1 B14 Musikmesse
We will be launching the Slat Wall fixing for the Hangers and also THE ACOUSTIC HANGER
Woodie will be at Messe, along with Scott, Paul and I, so hopefully I’ll get to have a walk around a little (I didn’t see any of NAMM except the top of the escalator by Hall E, and the exit)
We are starting to get Hangers out to stores near you, if you take a look at the Stockists section, you’ll see we have many new countries on there, and we are updating all the time. There is still a lot of the world not covered, so if you’re a distributor in a region not listed, then please get in touch.
Well that’s it for now, thanks for buying the Hangers and I look forward to you bringing a beer to the stand in Frankfurt.
Adrian
