Ibanez

Ibanez will forever be associated with electric guitars, but in the 1980s they commissioned Sony to make a digital reverb for them to sell under the Ibanez brand, thus the Ibanez SDR 1000 was born. However, their venture into rack mount effects began many years earlier, way back in the 1970s in fact.
