Ibanez Nu Tube Screamer Overdrive Pedal

Description

Ibanez NU Tubescreamer Overdrive Pedal for Electric Guitar with Nutube Vacuum Tube and Controls for Mix, Drive, Tone and Level Equipped with a Nutube vacuum tube, the Ibanez Nu Tubescreamer is a worthy successor to one of the most-played overdrive pedals of all time. And it’s even more versatile than the original, with a mix control for blending your dry tone with the overdriven sound. Thanks to its Nutube circuitry, the Nu Tubescreamer delivers impressive dynamics, excellent sensitivity, and tube-like compression when you hit it hard. And just like the original, the Ibanez Nu Tubescreamer is also an awesome clean boost for overdriving a tube amplifier that is already at the edge of breakup. Nutube technology delivers genuine tube tone Guitarists should be excited about Nutube technology — it offers the harmonic richness of tube distortion in a smaller, more power efficient package. It’s a genuine vacuum tube, and that’s why the Nu Tubescreamer has such an amp-like response. Explore its gain range with your picking dynamics, and enjoy the natural tube compression that takes hold when you dig into it. Mix control for sonic versatility More and more guitarists at Sweetwater are seeking out overdrive options with a mix control like the Nu Tubescreamer offers. You can balance the grind of the overdrive with the clear attack of your clean tone, which is especially useful for cutting through when playing lead. With the mix control fully counter-clockwise, you can use the Nu Tubescreamer as a pristine clean boost for pushing your amp’s front end harder. Even more headroom and gain While the Ibanez Nu Tubescreamer can be powered by a 9V battery or power supply (sold separately), you can also use an 18V power supply for added headroom and gain.

The pairing of Ibanez’s Tube Screamer with Korg’s Nutube technology has produced the Ibanez Nu Tubescreamer, an overdrive with exceptional dynamics, improved sensitivity, and natural tube-like compression. For those familiar with the conventional TS808, the added warmth and amp-like quality of the Nu Tubescreamer will be immediately apparent.
Beyond the addition of the Nutube, the Nu Tubescreamer incorporates several new features designed to vastly widen the pedal’s tonal potential. A “mix” control was included to allow for balancing the clean and overdriven signal. With the “Mix” control rolled totally counter-clockwise, only the dry signal will be present making the Nu Tube Screamer ideal for double duty as a clean boost. The unit can also be run with either 9 or 18V power; 18V allows for increased headroom and
The development of the Nu Tubescreamer involved a year of close collaboration with Korg, as well as our Artists, in order to ensure we created something with new tonal dimensions that also stays true to Tube Screamer’s legacy.
