« Ibanez PUE 5 Tube »

Published on 07/01/01 at 15:00
bought second hand store. paid Fl 100,-- (dutch guilders)

This unit is clean. All sounds that specify the guitar used are left alone. So if I use my cheap aria rip off, with great squiking noise, the pue will add effect but the caracter is kept. If I use my Ibanez rx240 original, the combination is perfect for performance on stage. Ok I am a sound freak so i add another multi effect (dod fx7), a boss sustainer compressor and a volume/wah pedal, and the possibilities are endless. I use the effectloop for the weird stuff and with one kick i'm there.

There isn't a lot not to like about it except the size and weight perhaps. But with tank durability i don't care about that.
The settings of the delay are difficult to get the results you want. Basicly because there are 3 frequencies not switchable with your foot.

as told above the durability is perfect. My motoric skills weaken when i play so the unit sometimes has to sustain some kicking. But has no problems with that.

I'll be trying to find another one off these if this one dies on me. But never buy the pue 5 without the tubes. One more thing, i tried finding the manual or specifications of this unit but except other users nobody at ibanez knows about the pue 5 tube anymore.
