Ibanez ST9 Super Tubescreamer
Very close to STL Super Tube. Clipping amp and mids boost section are in different order, plus some slight changes to the buffers.

Ibanez TS7 Tubescreamer
200th Overdrive layout! I seem to be on the streak with Tubescreamers. This one also marks a special moment. In addition to this being 200th OD layout, i finally deciphered the original schematic which is very annoying to read (all 7-series schematics are). This one is also our first layout for the this series of … Read more
Ibanez TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer
This puppy is basically another TS9, but it has clipping and gain options on “mode” switch. Modes are TS9, +, Hot and Turbo. Latter one acts as a diode lift, but adds a lot of gain. The switch is 2P4T rotary. Original unit has 250K dual gang pot for gain, and for some reason it … Read more
Ibanez TS5 Tube Screamer
Hehee! Couldn’t help myself. It is in reality a TS9 🙂 If you want it 1:1, then use TA75558 and 2SC1815 transistors (mind the pinout!). You could of course build it with JRC4558D and check the output resistors to make it 808.. I still thought we needed at least one more Soundtank to our library. … Read more
Ibanez STL Super Tube
Doron! I think you meant this one and not the MSL 😛 To add a few words, the clipping diodes are placed neatly where you can easily take them on the switch and have your way with them. I would probably go with three position two pole switch and have the middle as diode lift, … Read more
Ibanez TS10 Tube Screamer
Edit 31.7.2016 – There was still one crucial error on the layout, which made the board defunct. Fixed and tweaked a few things around to accomodate the polarity protection etc. *Should* finally be safe to build.
Ibanez CM5 Classic Metal
Got the original yesterday and it didn’t disappoint. Soundwise. The box is what you’d expect and the stompswitch is out of order, so no surprise there. Ibanez’s old cheapo high gain distortion that is articulate and powerful without being mushy or too noisy. Well worth a second look. This layout omits the in/out buffers and … Read more
Ibanez PL5 – Powerlead
This is the biggest layout i’ve done to date. And believe me – four transistors and one dual opamp – that’s pretty much all you can fit in there, if you want to squeeze it into 1590B. Anyway. I know that in the first six hours of publishing this there will be at least one … Read more
Ibanez WH10
Request. Manufacturers info about the reissue version which is a circuit match: The WH10V2 features the same circuit as the original with one major upgrade: a very sturdy metal housing. Ready now for the rigors of the road, the WH10V2 features the same multiple feedback opamp circuit as the original, a type rarely found in … Read more
