Ibanez AD9 questions

[Le Daniele]

Hi, a few questions for Ibanez AD9 users, as I'm thinking about buying one (brand new):

1. Does it self-oscillate? Some people say it does, some people say it doesn't.
2. If it doesn't self oscillate with factory settings, could I get it to oscillate playing with the trimpots without any danger for the pedal?
3. How does it compare to a Vintage AD9, a DM2 or a Maxon reissue?

Thanks for your comments.

I know keeley does a mod that adds true bypass and uses the existing footswitch for self-oscillation.

So that means it does not self-oscillate without mods?

There is one for oscillation, and you can get it just to your liking where it will oscillate at the exact spot on the feedback dial you like.
