Ernie Ball Inc., the world’s leading manufacturer of premium guitar strings, bass strings and musical instrument accessories, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Source Audio, the Massachusetts-based company behind some of the most innovative and acclaimed effects pedals in modern music.

And don't look now, but JHS used the occasion to announce a collaboration, 7 years in development, with Source Audio. It had knobs and a foot switch.

Hopefully Source gets to maintain some of its independence. IDK how many people work there but mergers are usually never good for the employees of the company getting bought.

True. There shouldn't be mich redundancy between the two on the engineering sides. But things like marketing and purchasing and stuff like that would be.
