Best value:
Poor
Replica of an Ibanez Tube Screamer TS808, with the chipset that everyone wants. An advantage cons compared to the good old Tube Screamer: quality workmanship (artisanal) and True Bypass. For the rest, see the previous review.
UTILIZATION
RAS. In three minutes, there is the sound.
SOUND QUALITY
Silence of the overdrive is awesome! It fulfills its role perfectly. A hot probe, always very nice even tone pushed forward. Of great crunch.
For my part, I use my amp at the input of Mr. Hector Laboga to boost the front entrance to attack the distortion of the amp. It's magic: the sustain is incredible, tight grain, the audio is compressed without being the least compressed.
OVERALL OPINION
I just bought this marvel. I especially appreciate his lack of breath. Overdrive pedals often have the bad taste to blow like bison asthma. Here, none of this. The true bypass is a valuable improvement over the original model. The value for money is very good, especially if one judges by the fact that vintage TS808 is often prohibitively expensive on the market opportunity. Less well finished and louder!
