I believe all MIJ Ibanez guitars are made by fujigen. Ibanez may be the first Airbnb type company that doesn’t actually make guitars, just the designs.
Pretty good watch here, explains it.
Yep, they don't make the Mesa any longer. They make the 5Band with OD built in, but not the straight 5Band. Not sure why, I'd love to have a pair.
$675 is actually the cheapest.
Mesa 5 band eq's are crazy expensive, cheapest on Reverb right now if $675. I have a mesa 5 Band and love it post the amp. But I use a RedSeven Amp Central reactive load and it has stereo outputs which sound amazing going stereo into the AxeFx3 for effects. I have been using the Ibanez Pentatone...
FM9 would be great as well. My preference would be to go for the full FM9. But if someone already had the VP4, I think adding the AM4 would pair nicely. Just depends on what someone might already have. I think if I had nothing and wanted to try amp modelers, the AM4 is a good entry point. Over...
This looks cool. If I wanted to get into the a modeler I’d go this route. I’m a long time AxeFx user and use the AxeFx 3 every time I play. I bet this paired with the VP4 or the Eventide H90 would be a cool rig.
I have the 20th Anniversary XTC and really love it, I don’t see myself flipping it but it would be cool to check out the 104. I just don’t its that much different to justify. But I am looking to make a big dish for my Christmas present…damn.
Yeah who knows what will be in 5 years. Can’t control it, stopped trying to worry about it and just write, record and release my own stuff for the love of doing it.
Some Reb Beach new music
Gotta admit, I love seeing that Suhr model he’s got more than anything, but cool straight ahead Rock/Metal is refreshing to me too.
