Interested in learning more about the CAAS?
Founded in 1950's by one of Chet's fans, Jim Ferron, the CAAS has grown into one of the largest guitar-related fan clubs in the world. The CAAS is truly an international club, boasting members from places like Germany, Singapore and France as well as the U.S.
Club members receive a quarterly newsletter with lots of pictures, stories about Chet and a tablature notation of a popular Chet Atkins tune. But the real highlight event of the year for club members is the 4 day convention held each year in Nashville, Tennessee.
The convention is known for its number of talented fingerstyle guitarists in attendance. CAAS members from all over the world bring their guitars and trade licks in the lobby, meeting rooms and hotel rooms all week. Each day is packed with workshops and concerts, and guitar manufacturers and guitar related vendors occupy a trade show room where you can sample and buy products such as guitars, rare record albums, thumbpicks, instructional materials and videos.
