This Web page attempts to answer some of those questions. What does a particular series of guitar do and why. And that's to answer your question which is the most important to us:
And why is there an Ibanez? We've been making acoustic guitars for fifty years and electrics for over forty. We've survived and grown in the shadow of the "Big Guitar Companies" because we're not locked in by tradition. Certainly we have classic guitars of own, but by keeping our ears open to music as it changes and players' needs as they change, we've constantly been able to offer something different, real alternatives to just the three or four old standards. We make instruments that will take you from your first forays with the fretboard to whatever you need as a mature player. Guitars and basses that will help you with the inspiration of your first tunes, to their recording, and to their live performance.
Once there was a time when getting an artist endorsement was as simple as getting him or her to pose for a with their supposed "signature" axe. Well, that isn't true any longer, and it was never true for Ibanez. Our artists choose Ibanez because they know we will work with them to get it right, no matter how long it takes. And their creative ideas aren't limited to their signature s, many of the best ideas end up on our standard s, including the most inexpensive.
Some of our artists come to us with exact ideas: the specific pickup, just what fretwire, even what color. The task there is making sure that their ideas work, and if they don't, we have to figure out what will achieve the same, or better results. Others know exactly what they want in tone and feel, but not how to get it. Sometimes that's actually easier. But either way, it takes a long time, and we are proud of the results of the work that our artists and our designers have achieved.
But the ultimate benefactor is you. Because ultimately we work with our artists not because they will play these instruments. We do all this work so
YOU WILL.
