Ibanez SK-10 Super Visual Product

 Been some hype about this one lately mostly because it 's been mentioned by Josh Scott...

It is said to be the rarest Ibanez pedal out there (but Ibanez No. 83 Fuzz may be even more rare?). 

Circuitwise it is a Rat derivate, almost identical to Ibanez Fat Cat.

Schematic can be found HERE.

Aion Fx Meteor - Ibanez/Maxon SD9

 Per request.

A modified take on Maxon/Ibanez Sonic Distortion with elemnts of Ibanez SD9M.

Schematic is avaiable HERE.

Ibanez FC10 Fat Cat

 Similar to the LA metal but this one is closer to a rat with its hard clipping diodes and two RC filters. Schematic is avaiable HERE.

Ibanez BN5 Black Noise

 An old request. This is pretty much a Rat with an active treble control and two fixed eq gyrators making it quite bass heavy. Lots of mods can be done like a diode switch, tweaking the gyrators and the tonestack as well as tweaking the RC filter at the first gainstage.

Ibanez LA Metal LM7

 A quite interesting Rat derivate which is also found the "LA" mode in the newly released PackRat pedal from JHS.

Schematic is avaiable HERE.

Ibanez No. 95 Renometer

 This was a request. Appearantly a very powerful booster and eq circuit using inductors for sort of multiband wah sounds. The original ran on two 9v batteries for bipolar power operation but I included an onboard power inverter. Note that sizes of inductors varies a lot but hopefully there is enough room for them, especially the larger ones.

Schematic by Dirk Hendrik HERE.


 
And a layout with more accessible 100mH inductors.

Ibanez No. 58 Standard Wau Fuzz - Fuzz section

 Similar to the Ibanez No 59 Standard Fuzz but with a different tone section and a few extra resistors. If you want a bit more overall output level, 47k resistor connecting to Balance 3 could be can be replaced with a small value or a jumper. Another useful mod is to sub the germanium diodes with silicons for more crunch and tighter, louder fuzz.

Ibanez ST-9 Super Tube Screamer w. Aion "Cirrus mod"

Unverified
One of the better TS variants according most TS lovers. Original had a 20kC dual gang pot for the Mid Boost control and since these are nearly impossible to source this layout has Mid Boost section modified (lifted from Aion Electronics Cirrus project) to use a 100kC dual gang pot which is readily avaiable. 
But if you happen to sit on a 20kC dual gang pot you can swap both 7,5 resistors to 1,5k, 5,6nF cap to 27nF and 12nF cap to 68nF.
