A bit weird this one. A big picture of a Dean. Then a small of Rick with a Standard, and the text is about Rick. The large pick should have been a Standard.

I bet a non-guitar playing employee graphic designer type picked the Dean photo and thought it was the same brand.

It was probably easier to find a Dean Z than a Standard?  Who knows - weird, because that guitar in the pic with Rick doesn't have DiMarzios in it.

I was sorta more thinking about the producer of the ad "leveraging" AI and not evaluating the output hard enough, like college kids letting ChatGPT do their homework.  The thought occurs to me after seeing this monstrosity this week:

Whoever is responsible for that monstrosity should be beaten to within an inch of their life.

Then Sebastian Janikowski called out of retirement to kick him the rest of the way.

The Miller Lite beer coaster... of all things to hallucinate. 

That moves this from basic tastelessness to pure absurdity.

At the time that ad came out, he was maybe a year younger than that pic. 😉
