Want to fill a large room with an intimate sound? Try one of our MASA Commemorative models, which offer the rich warmth of the AP2 magnetic soundhole pickup and the crystal clarity and superb definition of the Fishman(R) Sonicore(R) bridge pickup. Best of all, with the blend control of the AEQ3MX 3 Band Active EQ, you can get any mix in between. These exceptionally versatile axes are a fitting tribute to the memory of Mr. Masao 'Masa' Hoshino, president of the Ibanez Guitar Company from 1981 to 1984.

Have you seen the headlines? "Guitar rock is back."
We're happy to hear it. Except at Ibanez, guitar rock never "left" - and if you're the type of player who reads Ibanez catalogs, you've been too busy playing guitar or bass to worry a whole lot about the media's take on music. However, the papers are right about one thing: there are more new guitar and bass guitar styles than ever before. That's why there are more different kinds of guitars and basses in the 2003 Ibanez line up.
