Legendary tone since '82. The Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer has earned its place in pedal history thanks to delivering incredible overdrive from its release and never really having to change- if it ain't broke, don't fix it. The iconic green design and easy-to-use functionality stand it apart in the world of overdrives as a superb all-rounder. The modern, brighter version of the TS808 has a slightly rougher edge making it better suited to slightly heavier styles and the TS808 for cleaner applications. The TS9 can still do the classic warm, well-rounded sound that Tube Screamers are known for, but it's also capable of taking things up a notch and going slightly higher gain than its older counterpart. One thing's for sure though, you can't go wrong with a Tube Screamer.
