Ibanez Tube Screamer | Mini Overdrive Pedal

The Ibanez Tube Screamer has long been regarded as a must-have overdrive pedal for guitarists worldwide. Now, the classic tone you love is available in a smaller, more pedalboard-friendly format—the Ibanez Mini Tube Screamer—without sacrificing the clarity or quality of the original Tube Screamer sound.

This compact version may be smaller but packs the same unmistakable tone, making the Tube Screamer an essential piece of gear for decades. The Mini TS delivers with ease after a subtle, low-gain overdrive or a clean boost with added warmth.

It's hard to find a guitarist who hasn't relied on a Tube Screamer at some stage in their playing journey. Now more accessible than ever, this mini version brings the legendary tone at an affordable price, making it a perfect choice for players at any level.

Laid Back Rhythm

While it doesn't have the exact smoothness of the original TS808, the Mini Tube Screamer still shines with a rich, mid-focused overdrive ideal for solos and lead lines. That signature midrange hump helps your sound cut through the band mix during live gigs. Looking for a softer tone? Just dial back the tone knob for a smoother, more laid-back rhythm sound.

Clean Boost Design

Unlike many overdrive pedals, the Mini Tube Screamer retains its distinctive character even with the gain turned all the way down. It acts as a near-clean boost, but still adds a touch of grit that enhances your clean tone without overwhelming it. It's the perfect way to add a little edge when needed.

Sharpen the Attack

More recently, the Tube Screamer has found favour among metal guitarists, who use it to tighten up high-gain amps. Rather than adding distortion, it sharpens the attack and boosts clarity, making it ideal for fast, articulate riffs and precise rhythm work.

Whether chasing bluesy leads, crunchy rock tones, or modern metal tightness, the Ibanez Mini Tube Screamer offers timeless overdrive in a space-saving format.
