Ibanez Announces New Distortion Pedal

January 12, 1998

The advent of high-gain / high-powered amplifiers & the reborn practice of driving small amps to the breaking point has wrought a new type of an edgier, rougher "industrial" tone similar to the distorted sound of a small transistor radio. While today's performers use studio gear or extremely overdriven amps to achieve this sound, the Ibanez BLACK NOISE Soundtank pedal puts this sound (and endless variations) in a small, affordable "stompbox." Commented company spokesperson Tim Komonchak, "Ibanez already has one of the widest varieties of distortion pedals around. But the Black Noise is the heaviest and just plain loudest one yet."

Soundtank BN5 Black Noise Distortion Pedal, List Price $79.95.
