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.

 

Limited to only 60 pieces worldwide, this Ernie Ball Music Man Sabre BFR features an exclusive dark translucent blue Okoume body, with a beautiful Coral Blueburst flame maple top. Fabricated with a slender, contoured body and a slightly wider neck (1 11/16” at the nut), the Sabre guitar provides unmatched comfort and playability. Equipped with a rare full rosewood neck, Schaller locking tuners, and Music Man’s super smooth modern tremolo system, this Sabre guitar is truly a finely crafted work of art that will bring hours of playing enjoyment.
