Apple GarageBand Jam Pack Artwork Misleading

From Andy Grobengieser,

I just received shipment of GarageBand and the Jam Pack upgrade. Just wanted to let other readers know that though the Jam Pack artwork (on the packaging and the install DVD) pictures a clarinet and a french horn, neither of these instruments are to be found anywhere within the software. In fact, Jam Pack appears to be all about extra loops and NOT about new software instruments. I must say, a big disappointment given the $99 dollars I spent on it.

[Update] Several readers pointed out that Apple does advertise Jam Pack as having "over 100" additional software instruments. From the Apple Store description:
