I've heard good things about this amp, but personally I haven't tried one and Ibanez's previous amplifiers that I've heard have been a bit sketchy.

ive never owned a tube screamer. so i don't really give a shit if its in there or not.

im more of a "if it sounds good ill use it" guy

Do you have clips of where it "sounds good" cause the demo did not do it for me.

I'm meh about the pedal, but I've seen a few local bands using it, and it sounds fucking nice.

Tubescreamers seem most widely used in metal/hard rock productions. There is a mid boost quality to it that helps bring definition to heavy guitar sounds. It is NOT used for additional gain/overdrive, more of a tone shaping use.

Please listen to at least 480.

seems kind of like a copy of the idea behind the brian may amp that VOX put out several years ago...

they took that circuit, the 'DEACY' circuit, that May used to goose his amps with, and put it in a little solid state amp.
but having tubes, and the tube screamer circuit, i don't know, could be cool for recording.

I've been secretly looking for a guitar head. This one might fit the bill.

I love the ts9, but i don't like the idea of having one built in for no reason.
