Contacting Ibanez re Floral Pattern Fabric

Metallion · #1 07-12-2007, 11:35 AM

Trying to get in contact with someone from the Ibanez Company or anyone who was involved in the Fabrication of the JEM 77FP guitars who might know Where the FP Fabric was Manufactured and Who the retailor was/is.

Steve wore a Jacket made of this fabric in the May 1988 Guitar Player Issue.

Mailing Ibanez via the websites only gets you anwers from administrators it seems, not the fabricators who actually build the stuff and would have the knowledge.

Anyone who has this contact information or know whom to contact?

Are you trying to get your guitar redone? I would be interested in the same thing!

Ibanez had that material made specifically for them to match the drape material that was no longer available.

You know, there are so many other options, floral pattern wise. These threads may be interesting to read.

Yeah, I've seen those threads and Visited the http://www.virginiaquilter.com SHOP, but it ain't JEM Floral pattern fabric.

Someone mentioned Screenprint, But you have to find a good Custom textile manufacturer who does it for a Humane cost at small volumes, and that the design ain't copyrighted.

Beautiful!
Change the flowers, pickguard, and inlays to green; and I'd break into your house, kill you while you sleep, and steal it.

i'd probably just be happy escaping with my life and swap it for a pack of hob-nobs

It would be cool to have an FP and a Floral shirt to match.

Yeah original FP fabric would be cool!

I've looked high and low on all kinds of fabric sites and can't find anything that matches the factory FP. Oh well. I guess somethings are meant to be as they are.
