  • Satriani and Ibanez

    I just watched some of "Rocklohoma" on Direct TV (AXS). Chicken Foot ended the concert. Not a huge Satriani or Ibanez fan, but as I was watching Satriani during his solos, I noticed that there was black tape on the headstock over the Ibanez Logo. No other brands or logos were covered during other bands performances. Does anyone know if Satch is leaving the Ibanez brand?

    Just saw him on a master class tour in Oz and he was showing off the new "Muscle car Red" JS24. So I can't give an answer why he'd have tape on the head?

    Don't know why the gitbox came out so yellowy/orange in my photo when it looked ok on the poster behind Joe?

      I don't know why that was. I checked his website and it's still all Ibanez. I also can't believe he would walk away from that "Cash Cow".

        All his personal guitars are made at the Sugi shop or at LACS... guitars from either shop are as good as any other hand-made brand and better than most. So, he'd not only be throwing away money from his sig models, he'd have to find another company who builds that nice.

            I'm thinking maybe he taped over the logo because the producers of the video
            had some kind of beef with Ibby? Like, maybe if their name appears in the vid,
            the producers would have to kick some coin to Ibby? Most times when you
            see someone playing a Gibson in an ad, etc., and it isn't a Gibson ad, they obscure
            the Gibson logo...

              LOL back in the day Marshall logos were often blacked out. I never understood why.

                i wouldn't be surprised if some other guitar company was some how a sponsor of the event.

                      Totally agree. A sig amp for him is an invitation for everyone else to sound thin, nasally, tinny...
