Staff from Progressive Music Center’s Raleigh and Wake Forest locations will be attending NAMM January 12 – 20 in Anaheim, CA and providing updates direct from the show floor. Progressive founder Billy Cuthrell (pictured below with Gene Simmons and Mitsuru Umemura/President Yamaha USA) will present two sessions at NAMM’s Idea Center for the NAMM University series. Progressive will also launch a new website while in LA, askourmusicians.com with clips and footage from Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers), Fender, Gibson and Marshall artists.
