Published on 10/18/10 at 11:06Analog pedal, an on / off switch and 3 tone knobs.
No true-bypass
UTILIZATION
The pedal is intuitive, no need to record.
I modified mine to have a true-bypass and give him the characteristics of a vintage TS808. Without changes
SOUND QUALITY
TS808, TS9 reissue the already sounds terribly for those seeking a sound and relatively roots typed vintage blues (Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, Stones, ...). Ca crunch is creamy, it's hot (well over a tube amp ...) is blues / rock to perfection. This is an overdrive designed to reproduce the sound of old amps whose lamps are pushed to lower retrenchment. It speaks neither a distortion or a fuzz. Expect the sounds of Keith Richards.
OVERALL OPINION
I try a lot of overdrive pedals, distortion and fuzz, tube or analog technology (I'm not too digital) and this pedal is in my pedalboard since the beginning. The modification TS808 offers a real plus, but frankly the TS9 reissue is already very nice. A must for anyone looking for vintage crunch sound!
