I don't know about that. I think that Fender and Gibson are pretty much household names, at least for the market for home audio. I mentioned the Fender IPO to a colleague who is heavy into the market, and he said, oh the guitar people. He's not a big music fan or anything, but did recognize the name.fronobulax said:my own opinion that it is not clear that Joe and Jane Consumer will recognize the Fender or Gibson brand when they have a choice, so I don't think those efforts are yet mature enough to be successful.
Of course, this is just my opinion. :wink:
