Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 3-2004 Posted on Wednesday, April 18, 2007 - 4:12 pm: By the way I didn't direct that at anyone its just my warped sense of humor showing how sick I am of this whole serial number hype. Beginning in the late 1960s, Hoshino began contracting with Fujigen to produce Ibanez-branded instruments.

Is My Vintage, Made-in-Japan (MIJ) Guitar a Real Ibanez?

Ibanez has built some excellent guitars and offers tremendous value. Over the years Ibanez has consistently developed new and cool models. I can remember a period in the late 90's when they were overpriced a little. But they redid their pricing and came back to the market with some great deals.

Dating Your Ibanez While dating the appearance and disappearance of various models is not always precise, fixing the date of individual instruments has for the most part been a breeze since around 1975 or 1976 when a very logical serial number sequence was implemented. The serial number consists of a letter and six digits. The letter represents the month of manufacture; the next two digits are the year of manufacture: the remaining five digits have an unknown meaning, if any. By 1988, at least, the initial letter drops off. Note, however, that at least one Ibanez sub-brand, the Maxxas, does not follow this pattern at all. I called Ibanez myself for further clarification. Dating Ibanez Guitars or establishing the year they were made is a little bit tricky. On all guitars made before and up to 1987 the first two digits of the serial number would designate the year of manufacture. This is a simple easy intelligent idiot proof system. I have to ask myself why they modified it in 1987. I ask you how will someone be able to tell the difference between a 1988 guitar and a 1998 guitar in years to come. Problem 1: How will anyone know if it was made before or after 1987. Theoretically someone in the year 2023 could easily mistake a 1976 guitar for a 1996. Problem 2: How do you know what decade you are in. I mean it's simple for us today to tell the difference between a 1988 guitar and a 1998 guitar but what will they do in the year 2034 when the want to try to date an Ibanez guitar.

This resulted in the so-called period. If it rolled to next year, having a month could only cause confusion. Thanks for your interest and patience in reading my long-winded messages. I have one RT-240 social and one RB630, no RG models, just a handbuilt Hillman Longhorn with RG parts on it.

IBZ USA is normally printed in white on the black resistance covers, followed by a type number like F1, F2 for the humbuckers, S1.

Primarily released for the Japanese market, although it has the Bensalem Penn.
