Let's convince the management of Fender to creates a guitar/amp of the month club. To be able to qualify, you need to have been a member for one year and have over 1,000 posts. If you qualify there needs to be some kind of contest to put your name in the hat. Now we have to test drive amps for a free t-shirt, or test drive a guitar. Maybe we have to get a photo of us playing a Fender model guitar in a store. Fender, has the big wheel of guitars and one for amps like they have a carnivals. On the last day of the month, The Big Wheel chooses a guitar/amp and those people who sent in a photo playing that particular guitar through that particular amp by the 20th of the month, are eligible to win it. You can only send in one photo a month. Your name is in the proverbial hat and if they select your name, you win. Now if for some reason, no one has that particular combination of guitar and amp, no one wins. Or it can be a seperate contest. You can also have one for basses and bass amps. Sound, merchandise, etc. This will get more people playing Fender guitars in stores, through Fender amps. it will increase the enrollment of the forum and give Fender a lot more emails in which to market product. A guitar a month is cheap considering what Fender is getting back. lets see if they go for it.

It would be easier to pick fly crap off the head of a pin with boxing gloves than to see this become a reality.
