Analogman King Of Tone vs Ibanez TS808

Verdict

The Analogman King Of Tone is highly sought after for its exceptional overdrive, tube screaming, classic rock, and blues tones. Its production numbers are intentionally kept low, making it difficult to come by. It is often compared to the original Marshall Bluesbreaker and its derivatives, but with a more transparent sound. Those who have been lucky enough to acquire one praise its sound and consider it the best overdrive pedal. However, alternatives such as the Blues Driver or a clone of the King Of Tone can also provide similar tones. Overall, the Analogman King Of Tone is a highly recommended overdrive pedal for those seeking exceptional tone.

Verdict

The Ibanez TS808 is a highly regarded and legendary pedal that is known for its crunchy and smooth sound. It is often used as an overdrive with a subtle tremolo effect, but can also produce Uni-Vibe sounds. While it is expensive, many players believe it is worth the investment. However, some reviewers have noted flaws such as background noise and radio interference. Overall, the TS808 is a classic pedal that is a must-have for any pedal board, especially for those playing through a tube amp.
