It's back - the incomparable overdrive pedal that's been described as the Holy Grail of Tube screamers. The TS808 reissue features the same famous standout square footswitch of the original and the even more famous warm tones of the JRC4558 chip used in most of the original TS808's. Ignore any over-the-counter lookalikes. If your tone is suffering from a lack of real warmth, the TS808 is the real, non-generic prescription.

What I'm curious about is the chip. It doesn't say the original chip is being replicated or reproduced, just the sound is. For decades custom pedal makers were ripping apart various other pedals for that chip. When digital took over the sound could be replicated but never fully realized due to how analog and digital produce that sound.

From the Ibanez website. "The reissue includes the same JRC4558D IC chip and analog circuitry as the original, and features traditional overdrive, level, and tone controls."
