Ibanez TC7 Tri-mode Chorus

Posted on 29/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez TC7 Tri-Mode Chorus from 7/Tonelok series, made in china. Stamp on the enclosure suggest the build date to be around 2005. Now here’s the first! There’s not a hint of blue on this box! And in other news, the three modes are quite interesting – at least on paper. There are…

Ibanez CF7 Chorus/Flanger

Posted on 26/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez CF7 Chorus/Flanger from 7/Tonelok series. Made in china. One of the more complex designs on the series offers digital chorus and flanger. No blue here either. But then again, it is a flanger too. Got mine for standard market price for used unit and almost pulled my hair off once i…

Ibanez BC10 Stereo Bass Chorus

Posted on 19/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez BC10 Stereo Bass Chorus from 10/Power series. Made in japan around late 80’s. As with CS5/BC5 covered earlier, the circuit is more or less verbatim with CS10. Funny. Four pedals equal one design, or the other way around. And the colour is… Slightly darker-or-more-violet-than-SC10-blue. As with its guitary brother, SC10, the…

Ibanez SC10 Super Stereo Chorus

Posted on 19/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez SC10 Super Stereo Chorus. 10/Power series box, made in taiwan  late 80’s. You guessed it. Blue as it should be and without the stereo output circuitry, this looks like close match to Cs5 Super Chorus. According to schematic found online, the design is almost verbatim to CS5 – or one could…

Ibanez DSC10 Digital Chorus

Posted on 17/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez DSC10 Digital Chorus from 10/Power series. Made in japan, late 80’s. Refined chorus in 10 series with more controls than usual. And it’s digital. So prepare yourself for some iron worm action. Well. Not exactly. At first glance, this seems like very desirable unit with lots of options. In the end…

Ibanez BC5 Bass Chorus

Posted on 4/11/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez BC5 Bass Chorus from Soundtank series, made in japan in mid-to-late nineties. Serial number is in millions, so it’s safe to assume this is late 90’s unit. To me it seems like the bass effects are mainly distortions, autowahs and lots of choruses. Bassists are left out on many things as…

Ibanez CS5 Super Chorus

Posted on 1/11/2013 by mirosol

Let’s have a full month of posting only choruses as pedal pots. Why? Because i can. What is it? Ibanez CS5 Super Chorus. Soundtank series unit in plastic enclosure, made in taiwan in mid 90s. I may not be the biggest chorus user there is. I’m really not even sure how and where i would…

Ibanez MF5 Modern Fusion

Posted on 28/10/201328/10/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez MF5 Modern Fusion distortion from Soundtank series. Housed in metal enclosure and made in Taiwan in 1989. Already had the plastic one, but saw this for sale with a reasonable price tag. The switch is in perfect working condition and i believe this hasn’t been opened up before, not even once….

Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer (Reissue)

Posted on 10/10/201317/10/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer Reissue, made in japan. According to my guess on the serial, this is probably made in 2008. Got it used but in fair condition. This must be one of the pedals with most information written. Sad thing that the reissues aren’t getting as much attention. No one seems…

Ibanez CP5 Compressor

Posted on 6/09/2013 by mirosol

What is it? Ibanez CP5 Compressor from Soundtank series in plastic enclosure. Serial points to somewhere around ’95-97. Date is based on a educated guess, as always with these. First off. Ibanez compressors tend to use somewhat obscure OTA replacement in a few designs. The 9-pin  SIP-chip in question is BA6110, which is in fact…

here used to be a short description of me. however, it wasn't exactly accurate anymore. so i'm replacing it with this placeholder for now. and yes. it's been a long time since my last post. but let me assure you. i'm very much still alive.

Found an error? One of my assumptions is dead wrong? Something else is just not right? Let me know! Leave a comment to a post, or drop a line to mirosol at kapsi dot fi.

I do mods, repairs and custom builds too. For inquiries, use the email address above.
