TS808 : Much more than SRV sound

I bought the pedal mainly for blues played through single coils without knowing the versatility of the sounds coming out of this box.

I am running the TS808 into a modified Blackface Twin (I had a master volume added so that I can get the tubes cooking without blowing my head off).

My application:

Tele: - neck pickup makes that blues sound everyone is chasing and does it effortlessly, just plug and play.

- bridge pickup does rock is you dime the drive and and 60's clean break-up at the other end.

LP: - it just turns it into a dream rock machine.

PRS CE24: - the higher output 8515 PUPs sound awesome with this pedal. I am using the coil tap more than ever as the TS808 just makes the differences more noticeable (in a good way).

Cons: - on/bypass switch doesn't "click" when pressed

- the LED is barely visible when the pedal is ON

It stacks very well with other overdrive pedals. I have a Klon type pedal in front of it and when I have both on they create a very pleasing distortion sound.

My final thought: it makes me play differently in a positive way. It helped me come up with new ideas, encourages me to hit the guitar harder and just gives me an overall satisfactory feeling. GET ONE!
