Guitar Center

A very special thanks goes out to our friends at Guitar Center! As some of you may know, Ben is at the beginning of a long productive relationship with GC starting with his endorsement of Laguna guitars.
"I chose Laguna because of the versatility, sound, affordability and quality workmanship of the model, lets be clear, I chose them, not the other way around. Turns out that is the kind of endorser GC was looking for, someone who was already using the guitars".

Ben uses both their electric and acoustic guitars.

Guitar Center has joined in the sponsorship of Guitar Player Magazine's Guitar Superstar event with the focus being on their Laguna brand.

More on GC soon.
