Description

Ibanez produced the TRMINI as part of its Mini pedal family — a compact, 100% analogue tremolo unit manufactured in Japan. It sat within a line designed to deliver traditional tremolo functionality in a reduced footprint suitable for space-conscious pedalboards.

The TRMINI was built around fully analogue circuitry and offered three front-panel controls: Wave, Speed, and Depth. An internal level trim pot allowed the output level of the effected signal to be adjusted independently — useful for compensating for any perceived volume drop when the effect was engaged. A true bypass switching arrangement provided a direct, unbuffered signal path when the pedal was disengaged. Power was drawn from an external DC 9V AC adapter at 13mA.

Owners seeking to troubleshoot, service, or integrate this unit into a larger rig — particularly regarding internal trim pot adjustment or power supply compatibility — should consult a qualified guitar technician or electronics technician experienced with effects pedals.

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

What do you know about this one?

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
