50 years of Ibanez in the USA

On September 1, 1972, the Japanese musical instrument manufacturer Hoshino officially formed a partnership with America’s Elger company to sell and market Ibanez guitars in the United States.

Today, we present a deep dive into the company's history, and how it evolved in tandem with guitar culture to make new breakthroughs in design, sound, and performance.
