IBANEZ TS-808 TUBE SCREAMERIbanez Tube Screamer pedal for sale serviced and in excellent working order.Serial: 172192 - most likely from around '81. Contains JRC4558D chip.It's in scruffy overall condition with quite a lot of chips/scratches to paintwork - see photos for details. This is entirely cosmetic and the tone is absolutely as you'd expect.Everything works as it should - no scratchy pots or dodgy jack sockets (it's 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 reissues are good, but the original vintage pedals sound really great - creamy & warm - especially when driving a valve amp.
