Ibanez Tube Screamer

Features of the Ibanez Tube Screamer

Construction - This is a very solid lump of metal, albeit in a rather disturbing snot-green colour. Access to the battery is on the bottom of the case via a clip-out trapdoor affair.

Ins and Outs - Very simply one jack for the input and one jack for the output.

Power - One 9 volt battery or an adapter (not supplied).

Controls - The three quite chunky knobs are Level, Tone and Overdrive. The unit is switched on by a solid metal footswitch.

Sound of the Ibanez Tube Screamer

With overdrive at minimum there's a subtle undercurrent of grit. Take it up to halfway and the Screamer delivers a lovely classic rock tone with nice tube-like sensitivity. This just gets thicker and lovelier as you turn the dial through to 3/4. Full on gives you maximum Cream.

Overall Impressions of the Ibanez Tube Screamer

I hope that younger players haven't been spoilt by the "farmyard-in-a-matchbox" multi-effect-digital wonders of the age in which they live. I really hope that they still have time to appreciate the simplicity of single pedals that do a single job and do it really, really well. Stick a Tube Screamer between a Les Paul and a Marshall and you are treading the path of many a guitar immortal, which might be a more severe test than deciphering the instruction manual on your latest digital doo-dad.
