the maxon uses original panasonic chips while the ibanez reissue uses cheap chinese chips hence the price difference.

here's a good read on a head-to-head shootout between the maxon and ibby ad-9.

Thanks bro - sounds like an Ibanez with keely upgrade might be the way to go!!

IIRC, isn't the Maxon True Bypass?

That is correct! And that's a key component of the keely mod
