TS808 Tube Screamer Guitar Pedal Kit

This kit is based on the most iconic overdrive pedal ever, the Tube Screamer TS-808. Our version comes with a true-bypass 3PDT footswitch & daughterboard so your signal passes straight through the pedal when it is not engaged in order to preserve your tone. Using high-quality components, this pedal is less noisy and more reliable than the original (when assembled correctly).

As with the original, the three knobs allow you to control the Overdrive amount, output Level and the Tone. The Tone knob changes the peak frequency from ~220Hz (at 0%) to 1.1kHZ (at 100%) with approx. 6db/octave roll-off. In order to save battery life, the input jack is wired so the pedal turns off if the jack is unplugged while the pedal is powered by battery only. 

This PCB will fit nicely in a 1590B (G150) enclosure without the battery, or in a 1550D (G111) with a battery.

Please note: this kit comes with a Texas Instruments NE5532AP opamp; let us know if you want us to send a RC4558 opamp instead.
