What do you mean by "Tubescreamer type" pedals? If you mean pedals that were in the same series and shared the same case design, there were several. Ibanez started distributing pedals with their name on them in '72. They had a couple of different Japanese companies make them for worldwide distribution. The original "narrow" series was made from 1974-1979 and had the first TS-808 Tubescreamer. In '79, they changed over from a round footswitch to a square one, which is more common.
The "808" series consisted of:
-TS-808 TubeScreamer
-OD-808 Overdrive (the only one I don't have) (also the OD-855)
-AD-80 Analog Delay
-CS-505 Stereo Chorus
-GE-601 Graphic EQ
-AF-201 Auto Filter (VERY cool!)
-CP-835 Compressor II
-FL-301 Flanger
-PQ-401 Parametric EQ
-PT-909 Phase Tone
The TS-9 series, which is a little more common, was made from 1982-1985.
-TS-9 Tubescreamer (the one they've since reissued) (light green)
-AD-9 Analog Delay
-AF-9 Auto Filter
-BC-9 Bi-mode Chorus
-CP-9 Compressor/Limiter
-CS-9 Stereo Chorus
-FL-9 Flanger
-GE-9 Graphic EQ
-OD-9 Overdrive
-PQ-9 Parametric EQ
-PT-9 Phaser
-SD-9 Sonic Distortion (bright yellow/green)
-SM-9 Super Metal (metallic blue)
-ST-9 Super Tube Screamer (MEGA rare! I don't have this one either)
-Blubber Wah
They reissued the TS-9 in 1993, and came out with the Turbo Tube Screamer in 1998.
The Master Series came out in 1985. Personally, I hate them. But..there are people who swear by them. The only thing that's really worth mentioning is that Ibanez started to use some digital technology in the Master series (chorus, delay & flanger).
Then came the Soundtanks, which are little more than toys with their cheesy "potato bug" plastic cases.
After that, Ibanez came out with the Classic Series. These were analog pedals in larger metal casings. Great pedals!
-AD99 Analog Delay
-FL99 Flanger
-PH99 Phaser
-RC99 Rotary chorus
-TK999 & TK999US Tube King Overdrive (uses a 12AX7 tube)
Now there are the Tone Lok pedals, which are a little better than the Soundtanks, both in construction and sound.
