Ibanez TS9DX | Tube Screamer

The Ibanez TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer enhances the classic Tube Screamer with a fourth control knob, offering four distinct overdrive modes: 'TS9', '+', 'Hot', and 'Turbo'. Each mode brings unique tonal adjustments, from a gritty edge to a powerful bass boost, making the TS9DX more versatile than traditional Tube Screamers.

A significant improvement over the standard TS9, the TS9DX includes the new Mode control, which adds low-end response, boosts volume, and slightly reduces distortion in all modes except 'TS9'. This makes it particularly suitable for bass players, as it improves low-end performance without sacrificing tone.

Improving the Original

Compared to the original TS808, the TS9 features an updated output section that delivers a brighter, more modern sound. While the TS808 provides a rounder, smoother tone, the TS9's more defined output offers a choice based on personal preference. For those seeking a versatile tube screaming machine with classic reliability, the TS9DX is the ideal option.

Classic Tone, Extra Features

The TS9DX Tube Screamer retains the classic warm, smooth sound that Tube Screamers are famous for, while offering a bit more gain than its predecessor. The TS9DX takes it further, with its 'Turbo' setting pushing the gain to new heights, allowing for a more intense distortion.

This makes the TS9DX arguably the most versatile Tube Screamer yet. However, one thing remains certain: you can always rely on the iconic Tube Screamer sound.
