The erstwhile Marc Schumann
One of a series of Westone ads from Guitar for the Practicing Musician, February 1990.
Marc Ferrari is probably best known for his work with Keel, but at the time of this ad was playing guitar in the short-lived Cold Sweat. Did you realize he also made an appearance in Wayne’s World?

"Success. It's the company you keep."
This is a doozy. A loose relative of the previous post, this Charvel/Jackson ad from Guitar for the Practicing Musician November 1985 has more angles than a World Series camera crew … or something. Here is how everyone is listed:
Steve Vai – Alcatrazz
Steve Lynch – Autograph
Victor Johnson – Bus Boys
David Anderson – Eric Steel Band
Tom McDermott – Rick James Band
Marc Ferrari, Bryan Jay – Keel
Jake E. Lee – Ozzy Osbourne
Amir Derakh, Chris Hager, Matt Thorne – Rouchcutt
Spacey T. – Sound Barrier
Michael Sweet and a partially hidden Oz Fox – Stryper
Vinnie Vincent
Man, did Oz Fox get shafted or what? I wonder if Victor Johnson, David Anderson, Bryan Jay, Tom McDermott or Spacey T. ever appeared in other ads.
