The TubeScreamer is one of the most used overdrive pedals since its introduction in the late ’70. It’s name has it’s origin in the fact that it emulates the sound produced by an overdriven tube amplifier, getting a warmer and softer distortion than with silicon transistors. It can be used in lots of different ways: as a booster in front of the amp to make it overdrive in a warm and natural way pushing it harder into saturation, as a distortion turning the gain on… No one like Stevie Ray Vaughan to give an idea of all the sound possibilities this pedal will give you!
TubeScreamer TS-808 Features:
- Vintage Overdrive effect pedal with True Bypass footswitch to keep your tone unaltered
- Controls: Volume, Overdrive, Tone
- Power: 9V Battery and DC negative (“Boss”) adapter
Pictures are only illustrative; this TubeScreamer ts808 overdrive kit contains everything you need to build your overdrive effect pedal (high quality parts, potentiometers…) as well as your custom knobs and led. If selected, you’ll get an enclosure with your chosen options (natural, polished…).
