PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Original vintage Ibanez Tube Screamer pedal in excellent working order and superb cosmetic condition (see detailed photos).
This particular pedal dates from c1981 and it sounds every bit as good as a vintage Tube Screamer should. It’s in great condition with minor chips/scratches to paintwork and completely original internally. The chip is an RC4558P on a Maxon ‘B’ board; it has the ®logo and dash in the TS-808, and is a low serial number #127***.
Everything works as it should – no scratchy pots or dodgy jack sockets (it is always possible that some crackle may develop over time when not used – this should disappear with a couple of turns of the pot – this pedal is currently crackle-free).
These pedals are legendary for their great tone, and were famously used by Stevie Ray Vaughan as part of his signature sound – also by Joe Bonamassa amongst many others. The reissue pedals are ok, but the original vintage pedals sound really great – creamy & warm – especially when driving a valve amp.
