Pedals and Effects: Nu Tubescreamer by Ibanez

The Ibanez Tubescreamer needs no introduction, it’s a pedal that has cemented itself with an incredible legacy and it continues to inspire musicians to this day. The Tubescreamer however, has come a long way from its original iteration. Over the years Ibanez has released versions of the Tubescreamer with different tweaks, features and modes while still retaining what makes it legendary. Some time ago, Ibanez asked Nick and I for some input on what would become their newest Tubescreamer, that day is finally here, and we’re happy to show you the Ibanez “Nu Tubescreamer!”
This video was shot by Juan Alderete, Nick Reinhart, and edited by Scott Ward for Vato Negro Productions.

I'm not Mexican but I like the fact you have the Mexican flag. Huge fan from Chile.

[@geetarbube]

Dude, the way you unplugged that cable and just threw it to the floor was possibly the single coolest thing I’ve seen on YT.

[@davelanciani-dimaensionx]

Wait, I just realized that Juan is the virtuoso bassist from Racer X! Huh? Damn! Guys, this dude is a MONSTER bassist!

[@ckf36]

Now this is some real rock and roll back when rock and roll was real hell Yeah brother bear

[@Neworbit6]

love me that rock n roll, whew !!1

[@ckf36]

Reade Wildman brother my man have u ever listened to the new rock and roll group they are the new Led Zeppelin Great van feet? highly recommend the checking out their new album and pitchfork can suck my broncho

[@m.f.3347]

lmao for a sec I thought you were being serious

[@ckf36]

john doe I’m as serious as the sun is high in the sky my friendo !

[@mattdoit]

Hell yeah brother, cheers from Iraq

[@chrisharrison809]

This sounds amazing on bass.

[@rngrzulu1275]

Suggestion... it seems you guys always like the effects you demo or are able to find something good. How about a video compilation of effects that either of you just didn’t like? Maybe follow up with a retake to see if you changed your feelings or figured out how to make them sound better.

[@darrenlamere1542]

Good idea.

[@thefunkynotes8956]

Y'all are crazy! Fun vids, great reviews, I'm always entertained and informed!!

[@RobFlaxMusic]

Astonished at how much low end that thing didn't cut on Juan's bass... Super rad!

[@RobFlaxMusic]

Aaaaand now I know why (as soon as Juan dimed the mix knob)

[@maxonmendel5757]

Rob Flax even with the mix knob cutting the low end, it doesn’t sound thin. There’s still some beef there. It would work well for like the White Stripes or TØP to get that crunchy lead bass sound.

[@liftedviewz]

Sounds amazing! I’m pretty new to the channel but find myself watching these almost every day haha thanks!

[@alphanumeric1529]

Yeah, these two are a crackup. Trying to talk them into doing a buddy-buddy road trip movie. I think they'd be hilarious. Real chemistry.

[@alphanumeric1529]

@@amremorse naw, they're just different people, both hipsters from different scenes. Juan get pissed at Nick, but I don't think it is subtle!

[@AlbertoMartinezDelRio]

Great channel and review.

[@RadityoPramAdi]

Sounds really good on bass!!

[@darrenlamere1542]

Juan, is that going to be a signature Warwick bass, or what that something you had them make for you for the MM tour? I like the contours. Sounds killer with the vintage Seymour Duncan pups. I saw that out of the corner of my eye when Nick was doing his review, and I thought, Hmmmm. That looks interesting. And I would love it if you did a rundown of your pedal board for the MM tour. Thanks!

[@maxonmendel5757]

I might hafta pick that up sometime in the next year or so

[@IMONFIREPLEASEPUTMEOUT]

Nick had the perfect opportunity to play NuCringe

[@elimpulsodeshatov5997]

Hi! First of all... this is a great, great channel. A question in a random video... excuse me if i'm wrong, why you never do a demo of Death by Audio pedals?

[@GregSturmon]

Damn. That thing sounds SAF on da bass

[@spuriouss]

Straight up classic reinhardt sound

[@AldeanLeger]

Ha! I'm binge watching Pedals and Effects while I'm working and a few videos back you said the tube screamer was like stepping on a wet turd or something like that hahaha rock on

[@jahmark9336]

0':26" fuckin love that sound Peace and love from Bristol England

[@charlesb7831]

See I never liked the original tube screamer, I picked up the Nu-tube screamer and absolutely love it! I also gain stack it with a Zakk Wylde overdrive to. It adds a different dimension altogether. And I run it on the 18v all the time.

[@teacher5376]

Bass and nu .solid

[@tylerloveless3472]

Can you use two dl4's? Like, looping your loops?

[@farhquad]

30000 hours is 3.4 years

[@vltirsarnat9405]

If you left it plugged in and turned on non-stop 24 hours a day. No one is doing that. Even if you played for eight hours every single day no excuses it would still last at least ten years.

[@maxonmendel5757]

I was hoping somebody had that figured out already. For pedal use that’s amazing.

[@AllanHathaway]

Say you played guitar for an AVERAGE of 4 hours a day. That should take into account the days you don't touch a guitar or the days that you just play all day. It would take a little over 20 years to reach 30,000 hours.

[@blazerepublic]

Deng das some swole bassss

[@jahmark9336]

What about that pedal that Nick showed to cam?

[@vltirsarnat9405]

That's the prototype of the pedal they're demoing.

[@drippinglass]

So... what did mueller find?

[@That_Idiot_Bass_Player]

Tube Creamer

[@trym2121]

So it uses nutube. Yikes so expensive, even more than vox mv50. I'm sure someone will make a multifx with nutube soon enough

[@jefflinkous212]

Just a heads-up for anyone else who watches this: It takes Wayne and Garth 6 minutes to offer any actual guitar sound for you to judge anything by. Lotta spoken noise prior to that.

[@deviousxen]

This on light before my Klein Bottle loop clusterfuck with a reverb at the end of the feedback :) MUahahahahahah

[@tompoynton]

You say it’s not a metal pedal but a lot of old 80s metal was just a tubescreamer in front of a cranked to fuck amp

[@nintendoor1]

should've called it the Nubescreamer, amirite?

[@vltirsarnat9405]

Noti-Squad!

[@krowland7584]

Sounded way radder on gtr

[@tommyconancoates7097]

That thing sounded like shit, idk what in the chain was causing it but it was a very strange processed warpy sound

[@teacher5376]

Nu Re better than the mini

[@joelkeane3160]

Ya need ta practice ya scales bra?!🎸

[@cleftturnip7774]

Just get the original tube screamer its cheaper and sounds the same.

[@bluesgut]

cleft turnip good review bro

[@danfango1333]

Overdrive on bass sounds like shit. Wake up.

[@konstantingrabko]

It is shit sound. Old one better

[@ronin5614]

Waaaaaaay too much talking

[@alphanumeric1529]

Park Yoo car in another lot. We have human beings here who tend to talk, think you're looking for the android isle.
