Customer Reviewsfrom Hammondsport, NY May 25, 2012 Ibnez TS9The Ibanez TS9 works exactly as advertised. I found a wide range of useful overdriven tones when used with a Fender Deluxe Reverb amp. The TS9 is very easy to use and the knobs are straight forward.from oakland,CA usa April 10, 2012 Music Background: pro guitarist mod what?You don't need a mod on this pedal, you don't need another version, this sounds fantastic straight from the box. I dare you to put this pedal up against any other stock overdrive pedal. You can't beat the price, it's almost silly how easy it is to sound like a pro guitarist-and after 30 years, no less!!!from Boulder, CO July 7, 2011 Classic SoundThe TS9 and the TS808 have a place on just about every pedalboard. I regularly use three other "boutique" overdrives that cost several times as much as the TS9, and still I don't think I'll ever get rid of it.You should know the shortcomings of this pedal before you buy it, I suppose. It's not true bypass, it won't work as a clean boost, nor will it produce massive amounts of gain. It's also all midrange, and cuts out some of your guitar's highs and lows. But the sound of the pedal is just classic. The overdrive is extremely smooth and warm, and it's midrange presence makes it ideal for cutting through a mix. Plus, it works very well for goosing overdriven amps, and sounds great in conjunction with other drive pedals. Ultimately, if you're after something high-gain with a massive dynamic range, this probably isn't what you want. But if you're after the smooth sound of a classic overdrive, I highly recommend this pedal. |
