Purchased at music store in Dallas, TX. I don't remember the store, but the cost was just under $100 (hey, these pedals are a must for BLUESMEN!!!!!!!!!!)

Simple. Direct. Pure.
This pedal gives the extra ooomph to my Fender rig when playing da Blues. It is the ultimate boost (except maybe a TS-808).

Could use a bit more gain, but that's why Ibanez made the TS-9DX.

Puh-leeeeeze. This thing is a tank. I gigged straight for over a year without a backup and it NEVER failed. Just make sure to use a pedal board or external power source. Replacing batteries for each gig is a bummer.

This pedal is a must for any blues freak. GO BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
