Electric Guitar Effects
Can a pedal be considered a clone if it's made by the same company that made the original? Maxon designed the original OD808 overdrive circuit in the late 1970s, renamed the TS808 Tubescreamer for Ibanez, the rest is history ... The OD808 Reissue offers all the warm, creamy, organic overdrive of the original and more. Never one to rest on their laurels, Maxon has tweaked the current version slightly to reduce noise levels while retaining the legendary 808 sound.

Presentation
After 40 years, the 808 is still being used to reinvent the guitar sound as we know it.
In recent years, the OD808 has been adopted as the overdrive of choice by a generation of guitarists in the most unlikely of musical genres - metal.
As it turns out, the OD808's light compression and bass cut are perfect for boosting high-gain amps, allowing fast notes to stand out with clarity while making rhythms tight and punchy.
Aside from the fact that the Maxon OD808 Reissue sounds richer, warmer and better than the Ibanez TS808 Reissue, there are also these few points to consider:
- Lower noise floor than the TS808
- Smaller, lighter cabinet
- More reliable switch with soft-click tactile feel
