Members eflatminor Posted April 22, 2014 Members Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you want a TS, why not get a TS? http://www.prymaxevintage.com/keeley-electronics-ibanez-ts-9-tube-screamer-mod-plus/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Telemike2 Posted April 22, 2014 Author Members Share Posted April 22, 2014 I am keeping my eye on the East River drive. I was kind of liking the twin pedal GFS for having two TS pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members WRGKMC Posted April 22, 2014 Members Share Posted April 22, 2014 Those Behringer aren't the sturdiest builds but they do copy the circuit and capture the tone very well.I've owned the Original Ibanez, and the newer Green silver version and to tell you the truth, I sure canttell the difference running them side by side. Maybe the Behringer allows a tad more clean tone throughwhich I actually prefer. All you do is save a good $75 on the cost difference. The chip and diodes are the same. The only fault is the pots are PC mount so they are a bit cheesy to turn. I beefed mine up by using somerubber washers under the knobs. That way the knobs stay where I set them and don't move if bumped. Other than that they work fine. I actually bought two so My recording buddy could get the same tones Ido when recording certain songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members WWW Posted May 1, 2014 Members Share Posted May 1, 2014 iStomp if you have a i device. I play a CL30 and did a quick demo of the TS9 and 808 reissues along side the "screamer" pedal from the istomp and I preferred the istomp. You can also look for a used TS9, or a visual sound 808 or Rt66. They are very good sounding TS's. Barber LTD is also another great option.

Members WWW Posted May 1, 2014 Members Share Posted May 1, 2014 Gotcha. Didn't realize your quest had ended. No idea how I skipped over that post up there^^^. Guess I just skimmed over since it just looked like a YT vid posted. I need to have my eyes checked out. I actually read all of the recommendations in this thread and agreed with all of them.

Members Wei_Shen Posted May 6, 2014 Members Share Posted May 6, 2014 The Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive is pretty much the same as a TS and it cost like $40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vegetablejoe Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 The Classic 30 already has a lot of mids going for it. As muchas I love my C30 and 808 clone, I would probably look for a pedal which can dial out the mids. Sorry I don't have an example of what pedal can do that. Or perpahps a pedal that can blend in a clean boost would work, like the Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive and Visual Sound VS-XO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
