Grammy Award®-winning producer Randy Jackson Launches New Guitar Collection, Exclusively on HSN Dec. 16th, 2012

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ — Leading multichannel retailer HSN welcomes back Grammy Award®-winning producer, music manager, and American Idol judge, Randy Jackson, to launch his first ever guitar collection, exclusively for HSN on December 16.  The “Randy Jackson Diamond Edition Guitar Collection” combines numbered, limited edition high-quality guitars with expert one-on-one lessons. Get everything you need to learn to play, and feel like a rock star with his exclusive designer style.

“I’ve created my premier Diamond Edition collection to give HSN customers the opportunity to embrace music the way I did as a child,” said Randy Jackson. “I designed these exclusive guitar packages so everyone can learn, play and feel like rock stars!” 

Although he is most recently known for his role on the blockbuster TV show American Idol and America’s Best Dance Crew, Jackson is a 20-year music industry veteran who has produced and performed with some of the world’s greatest artists.  Passionate about guitars since picking up his first one at the age of 13, Randy has since built an impressive personal collection of guitars and believes music is the universal language that brings people together.

“HSN is the perfect place to launch my limited edition guitars. HSN’s connection to the entertainment industry and their passion for storytelling makes it the right platform for me to share my inspiration behind this new launch,” adds Jackson.

“We are excited that Randy is returning to HSN with this limited edition, numbered guitar collection,” said Anne Martin-Vachon, Chief Merchandising Officer for HSN. “Randy is a passionate musician and icon in the music industry. This collection will give the HSN customer a chance to learn from the best and play like a star.”

Randy Jackson’s Diamond Edition guitars are the perfect gift for both aspiring artists and advanced professional musicians. The limited edition guitar package includes the choice of either a solid body electric or an acoustic electric guitar that includes an instructional DVD featuring Randy Jackson and guitar expert Scott Goldbaum, a 15W Amp, custom case,  guitar strap, chord chart poster, polishing cloth, designer picks, certificate of authenticity and more, all for under $300.

“It was an extreme honor to work with Randy on this collection,” said Joy Mangano, President of Ingenious Designs and HSN executive vice president. “Randy has detail for detail created what I consider to be one of the finest guitar collections. I’m so excited for everyone to be able to play such quality guitars.”

Randy also returns to HSN with his Timepieces by Randy Jackson watch collection with new styles for the holiday season. The custom designed watches range in price from $95 to $395, with limited edition pieces up to $3500.

The Randy Jackson Guitar Collection launches on HSN on Sunday, December 16th at 12:01 A.M. (EST) and Randy continues his visit on December 17 at 4 P.M. and 11 P.M.
