Critic Reviews

Analog Man Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer 808 Mod review on pedal-of-the-day.com

pedal-of-the-day.com

Analog Man's modded Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer, the Silver Mod, breathes new life into a classic. By tweaking the circuit to a TS808 configuration, it offers a more transparent sound with less mid-range and added bottom end. The result? A fuller, richer tone with enhanced note articulation and picking attack, without the mushiness. While some may miss the warmth at higher voltages, others will appreciate the extra output and headroom. This mod is a hit for those seeking clarity and depth in their overdrive, making it a standout choice for serious tone chasers.
