Ernie Ball History/Timeline

[luv]

I don't know how many of you have seen it, but there is a cool timeline of Ernie Ball history on the EB homepage. It goes thru the years and shows relevant happenings with the company (and the man) that corresponded with the year. Maybe it's been on there for awhile, but I just saw it for the first time. I learned some things like; the Namm themes at the EB booth have been ongoing for 30+ years, the bright colored string packaging has been around for 30+ years. There's a great shot of Sterling in a punk or funk inspired outfit with knee high red sox and something similar to the calf height Chuck Taylors that you see sometimes.

Cool stuff if you haven't seen it.

I can't see JP on timeline!?

The best selling model and there's no picture of guitar or John...very strange

^I'm sure there was a mention of John from memory, or maybe I'm imagining it.

The timeline was really cool to look at, though.

Just had a quick look and JP is certainly on the "Ball of Fame" page is that part of the time line?
