Ibanez Tube Screamer Mini Pedal

After years of seeing reviews I must say this pedal is awesome! I play drop A# with heavy strings and I'm using a Joyo Zombie II which can sound so low and muddy. To clean up and tighten my tone I've been using the Joyo Vintage Overdrive which worked for what I needed it to but there was always so extra noise and grit that was unwanted. Finally I decided to replace it with the Tube Screamer and my notes are so crystal clear. A must buy if you are looking for that vintage overdriven sound on your clean channel and perfect to clean up your low muddy metal sound.

excellent product,like the original tube screamer srv used alot for the tone.excellent service.thank you

Finally the missing link to my setup. I’d had been using the metalzone pedal on my 12w orange crush amp and when I decided to upgrade to a fender champion II 100 the metalzone just sounded like garbage. The amp has built in settings and I’m using the modern metal voice. Problem is for the style I like(more dimebag like tone) the amp is very bass driven. So after reading about the tube screamer and being torn between the 808, 909 and mini I finally decided on the mini and I’m am extremely happy with the decision. It really cut the bass and made the amp sound a lot brighter. The pinch harmonics really come through also. Still some more fine tuning but if you are on the fence the $70 is worth it.

This Ibanez mini pedal does nearly everything the bigger model does except due to it's smaller size, it requires a separate 9 volt power adapter. For it's small size it Rips. The on/off foot switch is easy to use, it's small enough to allow extra room on your pedal board, and a good value for the money.

This pedal is cool. Sounds best to me when used with Strat style guitar through an amp at very high volume for pushing the tubes. Not good for very high gain chugging at low volume. Friend of mine used one of these to play metal through JCM stacks dialed up to 10. It was searingly, deafeningly beautiful with that application- pushing the amp tubes. This pedal is highly interactive with the amp's volume and not simply a high gain box of instant distortion. Reduces bass and highs while pushing mids. Nice, classic OD. I personally only enjoy the sound of this with my Strat copy. I have Tele, SG, and other guitars, but I don't really like it with those.

There's something about them trying to get that 808 sound with a softer circuit that makes this one absolutely scream in the tele > ts > twin scenario. It's such an amazing sound. I had a friend with the jhs green tree pedal come over and we tried all of them against it. It's its own thing, and it's a great thing. It's almost like someone took the stacked soft clipping masterpiece that is the daytripper circuit and somehow added it. Like a brick in a pillow. it's such a great sound. It's great for fender single coils.

Love it

Beast pedal, packs a punch and doesn’t take up much space on the pedalboard

Pour jouer du blue ( SRVaughan et bien d'autres ) ,du rock,fusion,garage etc... L'un des overdrives les plus copié et des plus répandu.

Ok ok. You're reading this and you're asking if this mini pedal does the job? the answer is yes. the price is good? yes. But let me tell you one thing. This pedal, compared to the other model offer a better low end sound. It's more a mid range and lowrange frequency pedal. In the end, it scream! but not too much in the high end. It is perfect for my need cause I like my sound to be beefy and this pedal is giving me that. If you're looking for a ''treble booster'' this is not what this pedal will offer, go for a electro harmonix screaming bird instead. Have fun!
