{"product_id":"ibanez-super-metal-smmini-293820","title":"Super Metal Smmini","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA modernized Super Metal, tailored for the MINI range\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Super Metal Mini (SMMINI) is part of the \u003cstrong\u003eIbanez MINI\u003c\/strong\u003e family and captures the spirit of the Super Metal in a reduced size, without sacrificing the essentials: a pronounced distortion designed to stay clear in a mix. Made in Japan, it retains the \u003cstrong\u003efive-control\u003c\/strong\u003e ergonomics of the SM9, a layout designed to go far beyond a simple \"gain + tone\" setting and offer true shaping of the spectrum and attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is a pedal focused on \u003cstrong\u003ehigh saturation levels\u003c\/strong\u003e, capable of covering styles from energetic modern rock to more aggressive metal, while maintaining a compact and practical format for busy setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor which guitarists and styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SMMINI is aimed at guitarists who want a \u003cstrong\u003edistortion pedal\u003c\/strong\u003e with a clear character, offering enough controls to tailor the sound to their amp, guitar, and tuning. It suits both \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e players (looking to learn how to shape their tone) and \u003cstrong\u003eadvanced\u003c\/strong\u003e players seeking a compact and effective high-gain pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt excels in styles demanding dense and percussive saturation: \u003cstrong\u003ehard rock\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003emetal\u003c\/strong\u003e, alternative rock, modern punk, and any situation where the riff needs to stay prominent. In the studio, it helps precisely dial in attack and brightness to avoid a tone that's too dark or, conversely, too abrasive. Live, its mini format and intuitive controls make it easy to place on a pedalboard without losing control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eControls, design, and key points\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIbanez focuses here on a very \"sculptable\" approach: the \u003cstrong\u003eEdge\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ePunch\u003c\/strong\u003e controls adjust the sense of sharpness and body, while \u003cstrong\u003eAttack\u003c\/strong\u003e refines the response and presence of the pick attack (ideal for switching from tight palm-muting to a more open rhythm). The larger \u003cstrong\u003eDrive\u003c\/strong\u003e knob provides immediate access to distortion amount, and \u003cstrong\u003eLevel\u003c\/strong\u003e sets the output volume to match the amp (or push the input stage if needed).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts \u003cstrong\u003e100 percent analog circuit\u003c\/strong\u003e delivers rich saturation with generous harmonics and musical compression typical of distortions designed for riffs. Finally, the \u003cstrong\u003eTrue Bypass\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures a clean signal when the pedal is off, favoring a short and direct signal path.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSound\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Super Metal Mini offers distortion with a \u003cstrong\u003ebroad grain\u003c\/strong\u003e and an intentionally \"huge\" sound, designed to fill the space without getting lost. The controls allow going from a \u003cstrong\u003etight and incisive\u003c\/strong\u003e tone (useful for fast, articulated rhythms) to a thicker and massive saturation, with the low end boostable as needed. The whole remains responsive to adjustments: you can seek a more biting attack for solos or, conversely, a denser foundation to lock down a wall of guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn practice, it's a distortion that thrives in contexts where the guitar needs to be front and center: heavy riffs, power chords, singing leads, and generous sustain, while keeping the ability to finely tune brightness and impact to match the amp's character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEffects\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eDistortion\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esector\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eAnalog\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eelectric guitar\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePedal\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExternal power adapter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e9V DC (center negative)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage required\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e9V DC (center negative)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent required\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e23 mA\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Ibanez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357604630803,"sku":"293820","price":95.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/83680f3631925062f68002ad507d630e77de2283_HOSHINO_SMMINI.jpg?v=1789356539","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/ibanez-super-metal-smmini-293820","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
