The reverts of KevinDK with edit summary
were unwarranted. I don't believe a human may identify these as vandalism, so I suspect you are too much relying on bots. If I am mistaken then know this: this was NOT vandalism. I strongly suggest you to review the policy WP:VAND. `' Miikka 16:08, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

I just held a post-it pad (with 'Ibanez' written on it) up to a Spanish expat work colleague, and she said "Ee-ban-yeth". I've been saying 'Eye-ban-ezz" for thirty years :-) ChrisRed 14:11, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes. In Japanese katakana script the pronunciation is 'eye-ban-ez' —Preceding unsigned comment added by F7s ( talk • contribs) 03:35, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Can't someone get a better picture in place of that terrible shot of the RG? 41.240.16.158 05:39, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
I made one for the Ibanez RG page. Feel free to relocate it if you want Foreeye 09:30, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I uploaded a much better picture for the RG. --

does anyone know about what this quitar sold for? I know this is the concert series and cn250 being the top line. mine says f87 but I thought they stopped this series in 78. Any info on what they sold for in 87 and if the value is increasing would be very helpful.

The Ibanez wiki page is getting messed with by dorks from time to time writing pointless things like "Fel fel fel fel fel/ Står mest bara en massa fel här" and eliminating whole Ibanez sections like the model sections. I suggest to all the Ibanez page vandals to not bother and get a life as a lot of people look in at the Ibanez page and your stupidity will be very quickly undone.

Whoever did this, please remember that useless filler edits should be done in the Sandbox, not in an established article. The text was just the headline text, represented by "==This==". If one would like to do such experimental edits, just please do them in the Sandbox instead of on this article! That would be called "vandalism" here. Thanks.
I have an EX140 electric that I bought new in 1988. Its serial number is P802535. This breaks the PYYMMXXXX template. Perhaps the leading 8 means 1988? I'd like to add this to the serial number section. -- Monkeymaker ( talk) 04:26, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
The S-series sections needs revision. The Joe Satriani model is not an S guitar. It is in fact a Radius (discontinued after the JS model was a success) - 540R. Big difference in body shape, as I'm sure you already know. While the silhouette is similar, the body contours are vastly different. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.18.156.195 ( talk) 21:49, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
I went ahead and took care of it.
I removed the serial number sections because it's rather obviously fancruft and original research, but I thought I would leave this note here just in case someone wanted to comment on it.
I also question the need for the lengthy product explanations for models/series with their own articles. Seems unnecessary. Mbinebri talk ← 04:06, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
The Artist series did not only include solid body guitars, there where also semi hollowbody models - I just added a foto proof of a AS200.-- NSX-Racer ( talk) 13:47, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
From my own research I've learned there are as many different answers to the Lawsuit question as there are questions. How certain are you that there actually was a lawsuit from Norlin against Hoshino USA? Once I got past everyone simply copying everyone else's answers from the web, it appears there was never any lawsuit filed by Norlin/Gisbon against Hoshino USA or Hoshino-Gakki. The Ibanez headstock redesign preempted any lawsuits from Norlin/Gibson. I believe one of the American manufacturers did file suit (Fender, perhaps?) but I don't think it was Norlin. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheDestroyerGuy ( talk • contribs) 16:02, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
The Lawsuit dates and court case has been documented Guitarspecs ( talk) 08:43, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
This article seriously needs help, either from someone from the Guitar Work Group, or even a dedicated editor! I simply don't have the time- stretched too thin. -- Leahtwosaints ( talk) 11:40, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
I went ahead and put the models into collapsible tables, I think it's much cleaner. -- CantoV ( talk) 19:03, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
A lot of Ibanez owners want to know about serial number dates. Why not put the serial number section into a collapsible table instead of just deleting it. The serial numbers are not junk and tie in with the Ibanez manufacturing history and are sourced from Jim Donahue, the author of the Hoshino book Ibanez, The Untold Story and also from Nisshin Onpa (Maxon). Guitarspecs ( talk) 08:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
When I read the Ibanez catalogue, the BTB series is referred to as Boutique Bass. Is it worth to include it though? -- 92.75.5.74 ( talk) 10:09, 2 May 2010 (UTC)

So yeah haven't touched this page for three years and decided to start cleaning it up and making it look at least half way decent. I started on the Solid Body Guitars section. If anyone can help by continuing this style and make this page great so we can get it reviewed and get a higher grade!!!! CantoV |talk —Preceding undated comment added 17:04, 12 May 2012 (UTC).
The parameters "work" are their value have been "remmed out" in a number of web cites because they cause an internal error and the original editors' intentions wered not clear.-- Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 18:35, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
