Ibanez Distortion Pedal

[zidanek43]

Hello, I have one question.
-Ibanez Jemini Steve Vai
-Ibanez Tube King Distortion
Which of these pedals is better? I have Squier Affinity Strat with Seymour Duncan SHR-1 (bridge). I play blues, rock and hard rock. Sometimes metal too. But not heavier than Pantera. Can you help me? Sorry for a lot of mistakes, my English isn't good enough.

Those are not the same series, but stay away from the Ibanez Tonelock series...

Re: Ibanez Distortion Pedal

Thanks, but both pedals in my first post are not in this series? Right?

Re: Ibanez Distortion Pedal

If you are playing Blues/Rock
Stevie Ray Vaughn used an TS808

any 808 clone will probably be what you want

as to those particular pedals, I Don't Know

I play blues, but sometimes and no SRV I want to have one of these pedals I wrote about. Can you tell me which is better?

Re: Ibanez Distortion Pedal

Someone can help me? I don't have much time, I found Jemini in promotion for a half price. And Tube King in similar pricr. I don't know which is better.

I liked the Jemini... solid pedal... I think there are better pedals out there but if you can get it at half price go for it... its good.

I have no experience with the tube king however.

I know the Gemini is kinda based off a ds-1 and a ts-9 (correct me if im wrong I may be thinking of a different pedal). Both of these are pretty good pedals with the write guitar and amp but tend to suck not through good sounding amps. What amp are you using. The Tube King im not so sure it gets mixed reviews see if you can try both through the amp of choose.

Re: Ibanez Distortion Pedal

if it helps, I've had my tube king since the late 90s and I've owned it longer than every amp and pedal I currently have, with the exception of a boss tuner.

this pretty much sums it up.
