Maxon PT-909 True Bypass

Ibanez really doesn't really "make" anything. Maxon made over 95% of the pedals for Ibanez. Hoshino Gakki, Fuji Gen Gakki, Terada and other factories make their guitars or guitar parts. TKL made Ibanez parts. Hoshino Gakki first started marketing Ibanez guitars using the name as Salvador Ibanez, which stayed on the guitars when Julvez took over Salvador's  with his two sons running the shop in Spain after Salvador died in 1920. Julvez was still using the old Ibanez labels as late as 1944. In 1957 Hoshino brought back the name Ibanez. Ibanez really just markets guitars effects and amps made by other factories. Maxon has been their main pedal supplier for many years now. An Ibanez law suit guitar was as good as a Norlin made Gibson for 40%-55% the price of a Gibson. Their X series were great players for a great price. Then they had the weird USA assembled Custom Saber Series, where Fuji Gen parts were shipped to retail shops in the USA and someone bolted the part together in the back room, put strings on it and called it "custom made". Those are also killer guitars. Check the Ibanez pedal schematic if you can find it.
