Ibanez: Nu Tubescreamer

Ibanez: Nu Tubescreamer

The Ibanez Tubescreamer needs no introduction, it’s a pedal that has cemented itself with an incredible legacy and it continues to inspire musicians to this day. The Tubescreamer however, has come a long way from its original iteration. Over the years Ibanez has released versions of the Tubescreamer with different tweaks, features and modes while still retaining what makes it legendary. Some time ago, Ibanez asked Nick and I for some input on what would become their newest Tubescreamer, that day is finally here, and we’re happy to show you the Ibanez “Nu Tubescreamer!”

Pedals And Effects is so lucky and incredibly honored to have a guy as passionate as Nick give us extensive demos of his favorite pedals!  In today’s post, he shows us his Ibanez Echo Shifter!

Review: Ibanez DUE300 Multi-Effects Pedal

During this particular visit they had an 80’s Ibanez DUE300 Multi-Effects pedal at a steal of a price of $75.00! This multi effects unit is great for several reasons but I would have to say the most unique thing is the delay hold button on the board gives you 2.2 seconds of hold time! Back then, that must have seemed like eternity.

Review: Ibanez MINI series / Delay, Distortion, Chorus pedals

Pedal boards were becoming essential for the traveling musician, so making smaller pedals allowed for having multiple sonic options on boards already tight for space . Ibanez, known for making some of the most sought after pedals in the 80's, has decided to make some of those pedals into the mini format with the CSMINI Chorus, ADMINI Delay and SMMINI Super Metal Distortion.
