Ibanez is a highly regarded guitar brand that was founded back in 1957 and is owned by parent company Hoshino Gakki. Ibanez is perhaps best known for its rock style guitars with the Ibanez Jem, especially, being a long-running model that has had many variants over the years. Japanese built models command the biggest selling prices, with small-match limited runs meaning there is plenty of variety and interest to the collector and player alike.
