Scream 808 (Ibanez® TS808 Tube Screamer®)

Scream 808, the Helix model of a Ibanez® TS808 Tube Screamer®

The pedal has a characteristic mid-boosted tone popular with blues and rock players. The "legendary" Tube Screamer has been used by countless guitarists to create their signature sound, and is one of the most successful, widely copied, and "modded" overdrive pedals in the history of the electric guitar.

The Tube Screamer has a drive knob, a tone knob, and a level knob. The drive knob adjusts gain, the tone knob adjusts treble and the level knob adjusts the output volume of the pedal. The pedal is used to try to mimic the sound of a vintage tube amplifier. The classic Tube Screamer sound includes a "mid-hump", which means that the circuit accentuates frequencies between the bass and treble ranges (mid-frequencies). Some guitarists prefer this sort of equalization, as it helps to keep their sound from getting lost in the overall mix of the band.

Mary Jane's Last Dance

This is a lightly edited mod of johnnyrauker's patch on CustomTone, found while looking for good uses of the Alpaca Rouge overdrive. Terrific sounding patch, nails the tones of Tom Petty and Mike Campbell. Experiment with different guitars for alternate tones.

Extra Power Cable for your HX Stomp

I've been using one of these power supplies permanently zip-tied to my pedalboard, and it's been very handy to keep the original power supply around for off-board usage. Plus it's cheap and works well.
