Anaheim, CA – January 18th, 2012
Ernie Ball will celebrate their 50th Anniversary this Saturday evening in Anaheim, CA with an iconic All-Star Jam featuring some of the world's most well renowned musicians.
Over the last 50 years, the Ernie Ball Company has expanded its reach from selling custom string sets through the back of Ernie's old Tarzana Guitar Shop, to distributing their products to over 120 countries world wide.
While remaining a family owned and operated company, Ernie Ball has accomplished the extremely rare feat of becoming a household name while maintaining the grass roots approach that so many of their customers have become familiar with.
With one of the industry's most elite roster of artists, it is no surprise to hear that this special event will feature such players as; Albert Lee, Steve Morse, Paul Gilbert, Blues Saraceno, Steve Vai, Randy Jackson, Dave LaRue, Joe Bonamassa and MORE!!! This private event will be a highlight of this year's Winter NAMM Show.
A very special thank you to DW Drums, Zildjian Cymbals, ENGL Amps and MarkBass for providing the backline for this event. Stay tuned for a full press release including photos and highlights from the evening's events.
