Description

It's back - the incomparable overdrive pedal that's been described as the Holy Grail of Tube screamers. The TS808 reissue features the same famous standout square footswitch of the original and the even more famous warm tones of the JRC4558 chip used in most of the original TS808's. Ignore any over-the-counter lookalikes. If your tone is suffering from a lack of real warmth, the TS808 is the real, non-generic prescription.

  • The Classic
Style: TS808
What else is there to say? The classic Ibanez TS808 is great for any musician wanting a boost. I use mine essentially as a clean boost with tone/dist on zero and level on max in front of my high gain 6505 and triple rec. It amazingly tightens up the tone and boosts the signal in this config. Price is what it is, these things never really change cost. I honestly feel naked without one of these or a ts9 in front of my rig. ... show more

  • Nothing better than the original!
Style: TS808
I know this is a nearly identical circuit, but it just has a little more 'something' than the TS9. Love the retro look and it's built like a tank and delivers that mid hump we all need on our board.

  • I love this
Style: TS808
Ok - buyer beware - if you don’t play through a tube amp you don’t need this pedal. But if you dooooo it’s the nicest distortion pedal you’ll ever buy. Lots of famous players use two - one for some distortion and another to bring it up another level. It totally replaces the need for your amps distortion 100%. The tone is unbeatable. If you want to dual use your rig for acoustic playing and you play through the PA - it sounds like poop. It’s meant for electric guitar through a tube amp. It heats the signal to the tube and thus distorts the guitar (that’s why it sounds so warm and wholesome). ... show more

  • Sounds great!
Style: TS808
It actually sounds nearly identical to my Analogman TS9 with 808 mod. A lot cheaper too ...

  • Phenomenal pedal..despite what's said
Style: TS808
There's one rule you must consider when considering a purchase audio products. The rule is this: It's impossible to get people to agree on an opinion for anything audio related. WIth that said, I spent a lot of time reading reviews from people who knock and praise this pedal. This pedal deliver phenomenal overdrive (think of overdriving a tube amp with tube rectifier). it's style of clipping gives a more vintage and warm feel of OD, especially compared to a boss sd-1 When compared to a boss bd-2 it may sound less warm but not to fear but pedal is plenty warm and the "less warmth" is an illusion. I've found that this "less warm" feeling is not really the warm of the pedal rather the EQ. Just twist into the "+" mode and your problem is solved. Overall, this is a nice, sturdy, warm overdrive. I am personally glad i purchased over a TS9 or bd-2. I naturally chose it over a ts-808 because of price but i also because i'm not a huge fan of the sound of a ts-808. hope this helps. ... show more

  • Legendary Sound. Absolutely Crap Construction. Miserable Customer Service.
Style: TS808
My wife got me a TS808 for our anniversary (Yep, she's a keeper). It worked for a couple of weeks, then the power started flickering. I switched out the battery to no avail. After some research, I discovered that the "Smooth Switch" is faulty. I checked online and with a personal friend. Apparently Ibanez cut corners with the on/off switch, which gives out almost immediately. These switches are faulty across the board. Even my TS7 gave out after 10 years. The TS808 gave out after a month. I have a gig next weekend and I have to go back to my TS7 because my brand-new TS808 won't work. Look for a vintage one because the new ones suck! ... show more

  • Really nice tone
Style: TS808
I'm using it with a Fender Deluxe Reverb.. I don't often crank the amp, so at first I thought "where'd the bass frequencies go?" If you turn up, they're there, but actually even if you don't turn it up, it creates a pretty complex and pleasing overdrive. I bout the TC Electronics MojMojo at the same time...It's got the BASS no matter what volume, and I like it too! Still, this unit just sounds a bit more pleasing to the ear and to my taste it all seems to depend on the "tone" knob. I keep that near 11:00 or less and I really like it, although I can see why people would like to crank it over to 3o'clock; but that sound just doesn't appeal to me that much. So far, worthwhile pedal for the Amp I'm using it with. ... show more
