Modified Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer

This Mod was created in response to numerous people contacting me and asking for a vintage TS9 for about $150, but there was no way I could provide one.  So I've come up with the True Vintage Mod.  Beginning with an early TS9 reissue with the Maxon Board, the following parts are changed to achieve the vintage tone:

  • Replace the TA7558P with an early 80's True Vintage JRC4558D Chip
  • Replace the 470 Carbon Film with 100 Ohm Carbon Film Resistor  
  • Replace the 100k Carbom Film with 10k Ohm Carbon Film Resistor

Here's what it sounds like: 


 
The Parts
This is NOT an NOS (new old stock) chip!  I personally removed this chip from a Vintage Ibanez unit and can attest to it's authenticity.  This chip sounds great ~ must play to fully appreciate.  As for the resistors, they are an exact match to the original Carbon Film resistors used in the legendary TS808.
 
Conclusion
A sound check was done on a tube amp set clean and the sound was just outstanding!  A Vintage TS9 ranges from $200 to $400 and a Vintage TS808 ranges from $400 to $700 right here on eBay.  This pedal has the TONE, and for mush less.  As these are 90's reissues, they have some cosmetic imperfections, but it makes them seem all the more retro.  It is well packed and ready to ship FREE USPS PRIORITY 3 Day Mail the same day payment is received.  International shipping is $25
to ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!
