Offset ad campaign

Post by Soiouz » Tue Oct 17, 2006 8:53 am

CHOM, a local Radio station here in Montreal just started an ad campaign using a Jazzmaster! Here is the pic I took in my subway station:

It's the first time I see an ad use an offset!


Anyone has ever seen another ad campaign using offset guitars?

That's really cool! It's good to see the JM getting some recognition and respect (besides pricing that is).



I'm surprised (and pleased) that it doesn't have a buzz stop on it.

I'm surprised because it's CAR with a 'tort guard, just like my JM!

Pretty nice colour indeed!
...and the guitar is a CIJ, judging from the bridge and the pickguard.

There was a recent Ban deoderant ad with a girl playing a nice blue Jazzmaster.  I remember it well becuase it was the type of deoderant I was using having no idea it was meant for the ladies!

Hollywood Guitar Center.  That was a little too easy...  ;)

Last time I was there they had a Shoreline Gold JM bound w/ dots but it was like 9k or something.

You'd think they could have found a wall with more than 2 good guitars on it!
