Ibanez Booster mini
Ibanez · pedal
The Ibanez Booster Mini is a compact clean boost pedal from Ibanez's Mini series, designed to add volume and drive push to a signal chain without altering the fundamental tone, in a space-saving footprint. Built for players wanting a simple, transparent boost to push an amp harder or bring solos forward in a mix, it reflects Ibanez's expansion of their well-regarded pedal lineup into smaller, pedalboard-friendly formats.
