Ibanez TSA15 Tube Screamer Guitar Combo Amplifier (15 Watts)

No longer available at zZounds
Great for guitarists looking for a variety of sounds, this combo amp from Ibanez has clean, fat, warm, and overdrive effects.

The Ibanez Tubescreamer is one of the best overdrive pedals ever produced. The TSA15 tube combo amp features a true Tubescreamer circuit and a 12-inch Celestion Seventy80 speaker. Ibanez Tubescreamer amps can create natural clean sounds, fat crunch tones, and even warm smooth overdrive tones with the modified TS9 circuit built right into the amp. Guitarists normally have to depend on a separate effect pedal to get the distinctive, warm overdrive sounds of a tube amp. No more! The Ibanez TSA15H Tube Amp has a genuine Tube Screamer circuit, built right into the front end, for all the warm tube overdrive punch and crunch you'll need. Includes foot-switchable function, with Tube Screamer Overdrive, Tone, and Level controls.

I always like looking for new stuff and will probably also buy the Marshall Class 5 eventually but that will not be to replace this. This Ibanez is certainly a keeper
Sound
This amp is very similar to a Fender Bassman but with more crystal clear clean sounds. The sound is best described as sparkly but still very warm. When the tubescreamer is engaged it can go from a light overdrive all the way to a growl which when the boost switch is engaged becomes a serious ripping lead tone. It can do metal sounds and takes to pedals very very well.
Features
None
Ease of Use
It needs to be played at least at bedroom levels for the sound to really blossom but I can play it at sounds quiet enough not to wake the kids at night and it still sounds very decent. From a 15W tube amp that is close to miraculous.
Quality
Looks very smart and elegant. The tubes are mounted seperate to the PCB the whole amp feels like its made of concrete.
Value
This amp is in the class of a Vox AC15 or a Marshall Haze 15 without any shadow of a doubt. So for it to cost so little is stunning value.
