Description
Every Tube Screamer devotee knows the drill: that thick, singing midrange bump that makes tube amps sing and single-coils bite. The Ibanez TS Mini packs that exact circuit into a footprint small enough to squeeze onto boards that are already bursting at the seams.
Don’t let the size fool you — this is 100% analog circuitry running the same legendary voicing found in Ibanez’s full-size Tube Screamers. Stack it in front of a dirty amp for that mid-hump push into saturation, or run it as your primary overdrive for warm, vocal-like crunch that never turns brittle. It cleans up beautifully with your guitar’s volume knob, making it just as useful as an always-on tone-shaper as it is a solo-boost stomp.
Three simple controls keep dialing in your sound fast and intuitive:
- Overdrive — sets gain and saturation intensity
- Tone — shapes brightness and midrange emphasis
- Level — controls overall output volume
True bypass switching means the TS Mini stays out of your way entirely when it’s off, preserving your signal chain’s clarity. Built in Japan to Ibanez’s exacting standards, it’s a serious tool disguised as a stocking stuffer — measuring just 50.9mm (W) x 92.6mm (D) x 55.1mm (H), it’s small enough to tuck into a corner of your board without sacrificing an ounce of tone.
Whether you’re a gigging player short on real estate or just starting to build your first pedalboard, the TS Mini delivers full-size Tube Screamer character in a footprint that finally makes sense.
