Pics of the New Store–June 2020!

We’ve moved into the new store building this weekend (thanks to @AdamAsh’s cattle trailer!), and hope to open to public late summer…I love these signs created by a local artist!

Wow! That’s AWESOME ! It looks great I cant wait to come all the way from NorCal to come visit and buy stuff and just hang out for a bit. I saw the beginning stages when you posted them and it looks like it came together for you real well. I’m a carpenter so I know what it takes to get a project done so I appreciate what you’ve been through in the current situation we’ve all been in. Congratulations and I hope the finishing touches go smoothly.:sunglasses:

Hope you don’t have too many dropping in for groceries only. Well they may spread the word none-the-less through their story of going to a general store and there was only music gear.

Yes, we’ve had several drop in for milk already. The sign on the road will have wooden banners added that say banjos, guitars, mandolins and more!

Love the signage @BanjoBen it’s great that you were able to find a local artist to do the livery. I love all those old traditional signs, I think it adds a distinctive and personalised character to a shop front.

Maybe you could get the Purple Hulls to pop up from Kilgore with a few bushels of peas to catch some passing trade.

Great sign, great cattle trailer and great location, right by the 35 mph sign. Sure beats people zipping by at 55+!
Have you considered stocking a couple boxes of Slim Jims & a Slurpee machine?? It’s cheaper than adding a “Banjo-Madolin-Guitar” sign and you might make a couple bucks!

Hi @BanjoBen Just downloaded the roadside image makes for a great background picture for my PC and a welcome daily reminder to visit the BBC forum. Not that I need any reminder.
