What guitarists use a Tube Screamer?
Ibanez's Tube Screamer Clones is possibly the most famous overdrive guitar pedal, and many players like it.
The Ibanez TS808 has been available for almost 40 years. Although Ibanez has
become recognized for it, the little green wonder pedal gets designed by the Japanese
Maxon.
Maxon had no way of
exporting products at the time, so it focused solely on the home market. As a
result, Maxon also produced pedals for other manufacturers. As a result, the
Maxon OD808's circuit was identical to the Ibanez TS808 from 1979. These pedals
have the same circuitry and characteristics.
Three knobs and a True
Bypass are available on the Tube Screamer. When the drive knob is down, the
signal gets a nice clean boost with a hint of grit. The Tube Screamer's famous
mid-bump is easily discernible.

Thousands of Ibanez
Tube Screamer clones get created over the years. Almost every music equipment
maker attempted to re-create this pedal with some tweak or alteration, but they
failed. Why do you think that is? Ibanez got it right. Three decades of
tinkering, tweaking, and failed attempts have proven that the original Tube
Screamer from 1981 is still great. It never gets old, and there's no way to
improve it.
