thats not a detail! To promote something you mainly need a hook for  
the journalists!

the public will never hear what pick you use, nor whether you play an  
original american guitar or a chinese copy, thats only for the players  
comfort (same goes for most amp, effect... gear) - which then may  
result in a feeling and indirectly perceived by the public...
very different with looping: its obvious, it calls attention, it  
sounds different!
