Ibanez Announces Jumpstart Heavy Metal Pack
November 24, 1998
Ibanez is one of the major players in value packs--all-in-one guitar packages that allow first time and gift buyers to pick up guitar, amp, instruction materials and all the needed accessories in one fell swoop. The newest Ibanez version, the Jumpstart Heavy Metal Pack, even features an Ibanez Powerlead distortion pedal so "aspiring metallists can crunch right out of the box," according to Masashi Inoue of Ibanez guitars.
"Jumpstart guitar packages and metal players are both an important part of our dealer and player base," continued Inoue. "It was time to combine the two."
The new Jumpstart Heavy Metal Pack can be easily identified by a special Heavy Metal logo on the box. Along with the Powerlead distortion, the Jumpstart IJS70M Heavy Metal Pack includes: Ibanez GRX70 electric guitar (choice of black or metallic green finishes), amp with built in overdrive, digital auto tuner, Strap, Picks, Instruction Book with contemporary rock tunes and Instruction Video featuring axe-slinger Andy
Timmons. The IJS70M lists at $499.99. Visit Ibanez on the web at www.ibanez.com. |
