We couldn’t have said it better. We love you Jenna……
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I mean, is she saying she's a fan of bands that happened to be playing Jacksons, or has she taken up guitar? [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

My future band shall be known as "One Samich Short Of A Picnic"!
Jenna's more famous than most guitarists today, and the demographic that likes Jackson guitars is primarily the same that likes Jenna, even though several of you don't feel that way. I'm sure FMIC conducted a marketing study to decide how to spend that money.
Ridgid Tools has put out a tool calendar for 75 years to sell their tools, the best around. They feature
hot babes, and are very popular with plumbers. Those calendars wouldn't be very popular if they had a bunch of plumbers posing for them. Same thing, really. Since Fender's never been that big on endorsees, it's no surprise they would follow a similar plan for Jackson. With both brands, the idea is that the guitar adds to the players' cred, not the player adding to the instrument's cred.
This is why Marshall also pays no endorsers, even though there are a lot better amps out there. Marshall was the amp most hard rock bands used, and they became THE amp to have. They've ridden on that for the past 30 years, and will continue to do so.
Fender not big on endorsees?
Clapton
Malmsteen
Beck
Buddy Guy
Bonnie Raitt
SRV
Jimmie Vaughan
Dave Murray
Hendrix
and probably a shitload of others I'm forgetting.

I want to depart this world the same way I arrived; screaming and covered in someone else's blood
The most human thing we can do is comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.

I like the idea of using a model in an ad campaign.
I don't think using a porn whore is a good idea though.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Those calendars don't sell the tools though.
They are jsut a "Thank you" for the customers.
The quality of the tools and the wholesale houses that carry them sell them.
If you own a company, you call the wholesale house and order whatever they carry...
