A Versatile 15-watt Combo with Real Tube Screamer Sound!

When you plug into the Ibanez TSA15 combo guitar amplifier, you get instant access to a combination of real tube tone and the legendary distortion and overdrive of the TS9 Tube Screamer pedal. Built directly into the TSA15's preamp section, the Tube Screamer circuit lets you dial in genuine stompbox-style distortion. Even without the Tube Screamer section engaged, the TSA15 gives you the classic sound of an all-tube amp loaded with a real 12" Celestion speaker. And thanks to its dual-mode power switch, no matter how loudly or quietly you play the Ibanez TSA15 combo amplifier gives you the tone you demand.

Ibanez TSA15 Tube Screamer Series Combo Guitar Amplifier at a Glance:
  • Built-in Tube Screamer circuit injects classic stompbox distortion and drive into your amp
  • All-tube amplification combined with a genuine Celestion speaker provides timeless tone
  • Dual-mode power switch lets you drop down to 5-watts for small gigs, recording, and more
Built-in Tube Screamer circuit injects classic stompbox distortion and drive into your amp

The TSA15 gives you the sound of real TS9 Tube Screamer distortion/overdrive pedal built right into its preamp section. Why put a tube-style distortion effect in a real tube amp? Actually, the ultra-popular Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer is one of the few distortion stompboxes you'll find in front of tube amp stacks played by major-league guitarists. That's because it sounds great and does a phenomenal job of pushing tube amps past the breakup point. Add to that a built-in 6dB boost switch, and you can instantly launch the TSA15's Tube Screamer tone into high gear for even more classic overdrive goodness.

All-tube amplification combined with a genuine Celestion speaker provides timeless tone

Ignore the built-in Tube Screamer circuit for a second and simply consider the Ibanez TSA15 as a tube guitar amplifier. What you'll find is an all-tube design that combines a pair of 12AX7 preamp tubes and a pair of 6V6 power tubes - a tried-and-true recipe for classic tube-amp tone. Now add in the TSA15's 12" Celestion Seventy80 speaker, and you couldn't ask for a more classic style of guitar amplifier.

Dual-mode power switch lets you drop down to 5-watts for small gigs, recording, and more

The Ibanez TSA15's dual-mode power switch lets you get full tube-amp sound at manageable volumes. In addition to its regular 15-watt pentode mode, this features lets you drop the TSA15 into 5-watt triode mode. At five watts, the TSA15 gives you the perfect volume for playing smaller venues, practicing, and recording. More importantly, it also drops your headroom, so you get the same tube breakup and overdrive as you would if you were playing at the full 15 watts, only quieter.

Ibanez TSA15 Tube Screamer Series Combo Guitar Amplifier Features:
  • Super-versatile all-tube 1 x 12" combo guitar amplifier with classic Tube Screamer tone circuit onboard
  • 15-watt tube guitar amplifier that gives you more than enough output for midsize and larger venues
  • Bypassable Tube Screamer tone circuit includes overdrive, tone, and volume controls
  • Switchable 6dB boost lets you kick the preamp section into high gear
  • Optional IFS2G footswitch (not included) lets you toggle the Tube Screamer and 6dB boost on the fly
  • Dual-mode power switch lets you drop down to 5 watts for recording, rehearsing, and playing smaller venues
  • The tried-and-true combination of a 12AX7-driven preamp and a 6V6-driven power amp sounds amazing
  • A genuine 12" Celestion Seventy80 speaker puts the finishing touch on this amp's classic tube amp tone
  • Effects loop for more sonic versatility
Get real tube amp sound plus classic Tube Screamer tone with the Ibanez TSA15 combo guitar amplifier!
