Ball Family Reserve viert ons erfgoed in het vakmanschap van instrumentenbouw waarbij enkele van de best klinkende houtsoorten en afwerkingen worden gebruikt. Deze zeldzame stukken worden aangeboden door gelimiteerde productie waardoor we instrumenten aan het publiek kunnen aanbieden die voorheen enkel bedoeld waren voor familie en loyale artiesten.

Family Matters

De familie Ball is de laatste van een uitstervende soort, een familie business dat sinds 1984 premium gitaren en basgitaren maakt aan de California central coast. Sterling Ball en zijn zonen, Brian en Scott, combineren de laserprecisie van robotica en manueel vakmanschap om zo innovatieve instrumenten designs te ontwikkelen die grenzen verlegt op vlak van prestatie en speelbaarheid.
