Ibanez 2018 (3): Nu Tube-ing


Towards the close of 2017, I did an entry featuring a defunct tube-laden Ibanez pedal (CLICK) & this one happened- the Nu Tubescreamer they call it. 

OK so maybe congrats to Ibanez for teaming up with Korg for this one because the technology is downright convincing in those Vox amps. However, I noted that tube-equipped pedals don't sell as well as those tube-free ones. Nevertheless, let's give this one a chance since it features a control that allows the player to dictate how much tube influence goes into the mix. Also, you can stick to powering it using a 9V battery. Will check this out when it's here but there's no obligations to commit.
