Ozzfest Meets Knotfest

If you’re like many SoCal-area ESP fans, you’re planning on spending the weekend of September 24/25 at Ozzfest Meets Knotfest, held at the San Manuel Amphitheater and Festival Grounds. Since you’re going to the show, here’s a tip: make sure to head over to the Musicians Institute tent. ESP representatives will be there with a bunch of our guitars and basses that you can try out to see how they rock. We’re also going to be offering special rewards for some of our visitors. We can’t tell you more details, but we promise that some people will end up being very glad they came! Also, a number of bands/artists who are performing at the festival will be stopping by, so you never know who you’re going to be able to meet at the MI tent. Don’t miss out!

Below are some of the many ESP players in bands who are performing at the two-day event. Make sure to keep an eye out for them — and their ESP, ESP E-II, and LTD guitars and basses — when they hit the stage.
