Ibanez TSMINI Tube Screamer Mini Guitar Effects Pedal


Description
The Ibanez TSMINI Tube Screamer Mini guitar effects pedal puts the iconic midrange growl of the Tube Screamer in a mini pedalboard-friendly size. Guitarists everywhere crave the expressive, touch-sensitive overdrive of the Tube Screamer, and now Ibanez has made it more accessible than ever. Measuring a mere 1.375" wide and 3.5" long, the Tube Screamer Mini is built in Japan to the same demanding standards of quality and features the original JRC4558 IC chip that gives the Tube Screamer its characteristic tone.
Overdrive, Tone and Level Controls Provide a Wide Range of Tones
With its three simple knobs—Overdrive, Tone and Level—the Tube Screamer Mini puts a myriad of overdriven tones at your fingertips. The Overdrive knob adjusts the amount of clipping and drive, allowing anything from a boost to a full-on overdrive. The Tone knob shapes the sound by adjusting the amount of treble, while the Level knob controls the overall output volume of the pedal.
Small Size, Big Tone
Despite its diminutive size, the Tube Screamer Mini serves up the same midrange overdrive tones that have defined genres and influenced countless guitarists. Ibanez has packed all the circuitry and components of the original Tube Screamer into a mini enclosure while maintaining the integrity of the tone. The Tube Screamer Mini's highly responsive nature allows guitarists to achieve tones from a subtle boost to a driven roar by simply adjusting their guitar's volume knob.
The Perfect Addition to Any Pedalboard
With its compact size and legendary tone, the Tube Screamer Mini is an ideal addition to any pedalboard. Its minimal footprint means it will fit on even the most crowded of boards, while its simple interface makes it easy to dial in. The Tube Screamer Mini delivers the unmistakable sound of the Tube Screamer in a conveniently small package.

Excellent effect pedal
So I'm a total amatuer guitarist and this is the first effect pedal I've owned. I love it! The sound quality is very pleasing. Despite being very small, which I like, it has quite a bit weight to it to keep it from sliding around when the cable pulls on it. I will note that this does not include the AC power adapter so make sure you purchase one separately. It doesn't offer a wide range of sounds but overall very nice. I would totally recommend to a friend.

I would not buy this pedal again
Wanted a small overdrive pedal that delivers which this does do, however, the need for a 9v adapter power supply with its wires and plug adds to the bulk and negates the simplicity and small footprint and lower cost. There is no battery compartment. I recommend to just buy the regular size pedal that comes with 9v battery capability.

This is a great overdrive pedal the only thing that it's missing is some sort of marker to know where your tone and level is at..
Solid gain pedal

Delivers the iconic midrange boost and creamy overdrive of the classic Tube Screamer in a compact, pedal board friendly size. It features the same simple controls—overdrive, tone, and level and provides a warm, harmonically rich tone that's perfect for blues, rock, jazz, and even shoegaze. Its build is solid and durable, making it a reliable option for both stage and studio use. While it excels at providing smooth, responsive overdrive, it may be too subtle for players seeking a higher gain. Overall, it's a great choice for guitarists who want legendary tone in a smaller package.

It's small but don't underestimate it!This little pedal will give you the best overdrive tones .One problem that could be fix are the tone and level knobs .It could at least have a white line knowing where you're adjusting the levels .

Works like a tube screamer should, just comes in a smaller package. This pedal is very well built but yet comes in a smaller form that takes up much less of the pedal board.
Sounds good for a small pedal!

I bought the product scratch and dent (tone knob was broken). I eventually replaced the potentiometer myself to get it working again. So he weary, tone and volume pots are plastic and may break! Besides that it sounds great!
Great effects pedal

Do have to use a TS with a tube amp?
No, any amp will do. This will make you sound like tubes.
