The Ball family is the last of a dying breed, a family business making premium guitars and basses on the California central coast since 1984. Sterling Ball, alongside his sons Brian and Scott, combine the laser precision of robotics and old-world hand craftsmanship to develop innovative instrument designs that push the boundaries of performance and playability. Each guitar comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity and hardshell case.
 
Limited to only 30 pieces worldwide, this Ball Family Reserve Axis Super Sport is one of the most unique pieces we've ever offered. The guitar features a triple-bound semi-hollow body with flame maple top in a Buttery Blonde finish with a specially positioned, single custom-wound humbucker. The bound neck sports an ebony fretboard, stainless steel frets and 3-piece split-block inlays. Each guitar comes with a numbered certificate of authenticity and hardshell case.
