You don’t see these too often! The original Tubescreamer! I have gone over this vintage pedal and made sure it is working perfectly. It has been tested with a battery and with an ac adapter., both work as intended. The pots have been sprayed and cleaned with DeOxit contact cleaner to make sure they work scratch fee. I cleaned the input and output jacks as well. The original angled footswitch works perfectly. I’ve replaced the battery foam in the battery compartment and also added new foam to the inside of the back cover, with some yellow foam to keep the vintage look. The outside is in great shape and has been cleaned. However, the black foam pad on the bottom is a bit brittle.This pedal is the original narrow box style 808 before Maxon rebranded them for Ibanez. They are the same circuit so this is the real deal. It has the MC1458p chips in it. It sounds great you won’t be disappointed!
MAXON OVERDRIVE (OD808)The Original Overdrive
- The world’s first tube-amp overdrive simulator – circa 1979
- Warm, creamy, organic overdrive with singing sustain
- Rebranded for Ibanez as the TS808 Tubescreamer
- The tone that made Stevie Ray Vaughan famous
Can a pedal be considered a clone if it’s made by the company that made the original?!? Maxon designed the original OD808 overdrive circuit in the late 1970’s – they then rebranded this pedal for Ibanez as the TS808 Tubescreamer, and the rest is history…
