Tommy Butler
As a session musician I know how important the right speaker can be. Success in sound adds to a successful artist. Eminence produces the sound that producers keep calling me back for. As a road musician I know how important quailty equipment 3000 miles from home needs to be. Eminence answers that need with quality speakers that always deliver. - Tommy Butler
