The NAMM Show in Anaheim is a massive showcase of the world's music manufacturing capability. The sheer size of the venue is astounding and the preparations for the show alone must constitute a fair sized industry.

The Anaheim Convention Center is a huge venue with so many exhibitors that it would be impossible for one person to seriously view even half the booths. Following are some image highlights from the second day of the NAMM Show.

Additional NAMM coverage from day two: Spotlight on Gibson; Spotlight on PRS; Spotlight on Daisy Rock Guitars; Spotlight on Atomic Amps.
