How to turn a $30 overdrive pedal into a $180 pedal -- The Boss SD-1 turned into a TS808

Ajouté le mer. 10 janv. 2018 Musique Rectangular HD

Good morning, good afternoon, or good evening, depending on where you are and when you watch this. Today I'd like to show you something a bit more with the honorable Tubescreamer (™) circuit. As most know, the ts808 (™) is a decently expensive pedal (and a great one). While outlining some mods for my new book coming out, this is one of them that will be in the book: Turning the Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive into a Ibanez Tubescreamer TS808 (™) type circuit, with about $5-10 in parts, a soldering iron, some patience, and the will to break the warranty on the Boss pedal.
