Quite an embarrassing demo really that. Even if I was into the tone and that "style" of playing I still dont think that video would have sold it to me.

lol @ the guy in the tie coming around the corner and nodding his head approvingly of the atrocious wankery taking place.

I thought the guy without the tie was giving him instructions - "If you could just pull the circuit breaker for this stand when the guy goes for his break..." and the guy in the tie was nodding his OK to that.

Yeah I noticed that. He came over to tell the guy to shut the hell up but then quickly realised it was a Demo. I am renaming this amp the Ibanez Douche Screamer Amp

That's a cool amp idea. Can't wait to check one out!

No, it's an amp with a tube screamer built in.

Well, if you WATCH video # 2 above, it says "It has a tubescreamer circuit built right into the front end of the amp." Maybe if you built guitar pedals or amps for a living, like one of us does, you would understand this. It means that the tubescreamer circuit is built into the amp. What about that don't you get?

It's probably the fact that Tubescreamers don't get a lot of love around here.

I personally really hate the way they sound. That has nothing to do with what I do for a living, either.

Well, here in the states, a good modified tubescreamer clone makes me good money. An off the shelf tubescreamer of any model needs much help. I mod ones every week, and I also build several variations on the theme.

Are you going to mod the ibanez tubescreamer amps?

Yes, if someone pays me to do so.

Good for you, I'm not really interested in that market, or indeed in charging people a lot of money for tubescreamer derivatives.

I am not a fan of tube screamers. I am also not a fan of people who state the obvious.
