A slight overdrive, the Tubescreamer is a registered itself as fridge.
Transistors, input, output, a 9v power supply. Made in Taiwan.
Plastic housing still strong enough, the knobs, too, is built better than behringer: it's not disposable.
I own two. The oldest has the support of the input jack is split: it is rather thin plastic. I'll tinker.
UTILIZATION
A level, a tone, rate distortion, and finally to Overdrive, and a push or not to trigger the effect. Ultra simple. No click / noise or latency when it puts / removes the effect.
No breath when everything is donf, even on a crunch. After, a channel Overdriver already highly saturated, is something else.
SOUND QUALITY
If taken for what it is, ie an overdrive that "srv-ise" a clear sound, a booster crunch or saturation, from a solo or to add a little gain, a second (or third) sound amplifier 1 (or 2) channels, it's great. Very dynamic, a touch of acidity, very hot, it sticks to the sound of your guitar and your playing
This is NOT a distortion with a max gain hideout behind which his bread, rather, it amplifies them.
For the rest, at 20-30 €, any guitarist should have one lying around in his drawers.
OVERALL OPINION
I own two, the first for at least 15 years, the second for 5 years or so, it paid € 10 in cash converter.
Underestimated, they are great pedals, plastic, but solid (except for my problem chti support jack in, good moo, after over 15 years of service, I do not blame him).
I also have a Jacques Tube Blower, which is clearly above, manufacturing quality level and sound (and price too), an old Ibanez MS10 Japan, spirit with a bit of gain and which is indestructible with its metal case .
I have owned (as to the past forgotten in the local rehearsal here approx 2 years ... a boo ....) Ibanez TS10 Japan, almost identical in sound, almost, for the benefit of ... TS5.
The NT5 broadly support the comparison (except for Jacques it must be said), I do not know if I differentiate in a blind test. It's more a matter of taste or color of sound and quality. They rate overdrive the lowest of the lot. They also have a dirty side in a less perfect / clean the Jacques eg, which gives a great blues side. It is this aspect flaw that makes them typed, and makes them more.
Note, a TS5 (not equipped with the famous jrc4558) sounds a bit better than the other (which has the JRC): a bit warmer, more dynamic, I do not know why.
Sounds great, cheap, solid. They underestimated I think their made in Taiwan.
