What is it? Ibanez FC10 Fat Cat Distortion from Power series. Made in japan between 86-89. The first Ibanez take to replicate the ProCo Rat was a success of its own.

What is it? Ibanez DL5 Digital Delay from later Soundtank series. Made in taiwan in mid 90’s. More from the better side of the palsticky soundtank series.

Ibanez DDL Delay

Posted on 26/03/2014 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez DDL Digital Delay from Master series, made in japan in mid 80’s. One of these units that usually are way too pricey for me. But if someone is really selling his/hers and is willing to give it away for good price, i’m once again there to snatch it. I even got…

Ibanez DL10 Delay

Posted on 14/03/2014 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez DL10 Digital Delay from Power series. Made in japan between 1986-1989. The Ibanez delays are usually highly praised and for a reason. Solid construction and nice design.

Ibanez MS10 Metal Charger

Posted on 12/03/2014 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez MS10 Metal Charger from Power series. Made in japan between 1986-89. Apparently, these units were a big seller. Which is once again something that i find intriguing.

What is it? Ibanez PL5 Powerlead from Soundtank series in a plastic enclosure. Made in taiwan around 1993.

Ibanez SML Super Metal

Posted on 24/02/2014 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez SML Super Metal from Master Series. Made in japan mid 80’s. I wasn’t planning to go after the Master series due to the rocket prices. Of course i have been interested in these too, but the status and rarity ridden cost of collecting these made the series not too pleasing. For…

here used to be a short description of me. however, it wasn't exactly accurate anymore. so i'm replacing it with this placeholder for now. and yes. it's been a long time since my last post. but let me assure you. i'm very much still alive.

Found an error? One of my assumptions is dead wrong? Something else is just not right? Let me know! Leave a comment to a post, or drop a line to mirosol at kapsi dot fi.

I do mods, repairs and custom builds too. For inquiries, use the email address above.
