			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">At this time one year ago,  Backstage Guitars in Lawrenceville opened its doors to the public to  provide quality, affordable service; qualified lesson programs; and  quality gear for musicians in Pittsburgh who were looking for something  different.  In this year, we managed to open two beautiful stores  in the Pittsburgh area – at 4123 Butler Street in Lawrenceville and  in the new Village of Pines Plaza in Wexford.  Additionally, we  were able to hold a Rock Band Academy invitational and launch one  session  of the program, holding a successful concert at the Hard Rock Café  for our students enrolled in the program.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">There were a lot of people  who thought opening any kind of a store in this market would be a risky  venture.  It’s true.  But that’s business.  Backstage  Guitars took all of that criticism and forged ahead to create two  amazing,  accessible stores in order to serve Pittsburgh musicians best.   With a strong business model and dedication to service, our first year  proved to be a successful one.  At the forefront of the company  is owner Jake Miclot, with Regional Director and Purchaser Jason  Deutsch.   Jason D. also holds down management for Wexford while Manager Jason  Cook handles business in Lawrenceville full-time.  Joining our  staff in late 2009 after spending 6 years as an educator in the public  school system, Carey Davenport signed on as Manager of the Rock Band  Academy.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Our first-year success didn’t  come easy, and to show our thanks and appreciation for the patience  and dedication of our customers, we’re holding a storewide sales event  for the entire month of April.  Every item in the store will be  discounted, with prices too low to advertise.  And when we say  ‘every item,’ we mean everything!   All accessories, pedals,  guitars, and amps will be on sale.  That means that Reverend guitar  you’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on or that Bad Cat amplifier  that haunts you in your dreams might finally be achievable.  Buy  a Recording King acoustic guitar and enjoy fine quality at an affordable   price.  Or upgrade to a beautiful handcrafted Larriveé acoustic  and make all of your friends jealous.  Can you think of anything  better to spend your tax return on?  We can’t.  We hope  to see you in April!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">And, again, thank you!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;">Backstage Guitars Staff</span></p>
