South by Southwest expands 2015 Music Gear Expo

The SXSW Music Gear Expo will be back in the 2015 edition of the world famous event and it will be its sixth year.
Taking place from March 19 to March 21 in the Austin Convention Center, the SXSW Music Gear Expo is open to registrants - who will receive a free guest pass.

The SXSW Music Gear Expo is a meeting point for musicians, buyers, gear and tech aficionados. This year’s expo features the addition of the John Lennon Educational Tour Bus and the interactive Synth Space.

The John Lennon Educational Tour Bus (Lennon Bus) is the premier, non-profit mobile Pro-Audio and Video recording studio and production facility. It will showcase the latest music and audio products, offer exclusive tours, demos and product giveaways as well as select artist sessions.

The Synth Space is a new addition: it features new and exciting innovations by top brands such as Novation and Korg. If electronics are your thing, come see ground-breaking new music technology at the Music Gear Expo App Annex. This designated space within the Gear Expo is devoted solely to the world of digital music-creation and virtual instrument apps, allowing users to interface with everything from virtual guitars, keyboards and drums to mixing and DJ software.

Other top attractions include The Shred Shed Presented by Paul Reed Smith Guitars, which allows players to turn it up to "11" - in tue "Spinal Tap" fasion - in an isolation booth stocked with PRS guitars and amps. The Deli StompBox Exhibit is an interactive guitar pedal showcase, giving attendees the ability to plug in and play hundreds of pedals from the industry’s top manufacturers such as Dunlop, Strymon, T-Rex, TC Electronic, Seymour Duncan, SolidGoldFx, Red Panda Lab, Mod Kits DIY, Darkglass Electronics and more.

Musicians will be able to have their guitars worked on by a professional onsite technician, purchase strings, drum heads and any other last minute performance needs from the Gear Expo Store by Strait Music.
