Comments | Here’s a nice 1999 Ernie Ball Music Man Albert Lee Black SSS model in great playing condition. Music Man was originally founded by Forest White, Tom Walker and Leo Fender, fresh from but not quite free of of his contractual agreements with Fender Musical Instruments and CBS. Early Music Man instruments did not, unfortunately, feature consistently high quality, and Leo moved on with George Fullerton to form G&L Musical Instruments. The Music Man company was sold to Ernie Ball in 1984. The Albert Lee signature model was introduced in 1993 and is really an under-appreciated instrument. Very well balanced, distictive yet classy appearance, wonderful tone, and the playability makes it obvious that a highly skilled player had a hand in the design. |
