What goes on in Indio vs. SLO?

This is a discussion on What goes on in Indio vs. SLO? within the Music Man Guitars forums, part of the Gear Talk category; What does EBMM do in Indio? I've seen the pics/vids of the SLO facility in the Open House threads....

    Geez...do you sleep, BP?

    I just did a Google Earth on Coachella, CA, to see where that city is. It zoomed in on this huge facility off of Grapefruit Blvd. Had me wondering if it just zoomed in on you guys--completely by chance. Now, I know it's not, but I did wonder at first. Or...maybe it is...

    Coachella and Indio are a significant distance away from L.A.--to the East.
