The first historical mentions of Ibanez guitars come from the 1930s when the instrument sales division of a Japanese bookstore chain began manufacturing Spanish acoustic guitars. Their strange start to life was a sign of things to come: Ibanez regularly got into legal trouble in the mid-20th century for copying the designs of Western guitar manufacturers. After a particularly costly lawsuit in the 1970s Ibanez abandoned their strategy of using other established models as the basis for their own instruments. Instead they began crafting their own unique guitars in the hope of establishing themselves in the guitar-making world. This was a move that paid off massively – the individual style and sound of Ibanezs instruments set them apart from everything else available on the market and the company quickly became a gigantic success story. In the intervening years a wide selection of some of the music industrys biggest and best artists have used Ibanez instruments in their music. Their bass guitars have gained particularly legendary status for their unique wide-reaching sound. Theyve been used in the music of many well-known artists from a plethora of genres ranging from U2 to Slipknot Earth Wind & Fire to Carrie Underwood and Al Green to Snoop Dogg.
