The Behringer TO800 VINTAGE TUBE OVERDRIVE Vintage Tube-Sound Overdrive Effects Pedal. Screaming tube-like distortion, smooth sustain and super-fat tone.
The Behringer TO800 VINTAGE TUBE OVERDRIVE produces screaming tube-like distortion, smooth sustain and super-fat tone. In order to recreate the authentic vintage sound Behringer have used the original 4558 opamp and the legendary MA150 distortion diodes. Dedicated drive, tone and level controls are provided for awesome sound shaping. Noise-free operation is guaranteed with a first-class electronic On/Off switch, and there is a status LED for effect on/off and battery check for added comfort and ease of use. The TO800 runs on a 9 V battery or DC power supply (not included).
The main features of the Behringer TO800 VINTAGE TUBE OVERDRIVE include:
Cool! Its reasonable price and very useful. It also sounds great and can apply to studio use and live gigs. I especially like tweaking parameters on the fly and use it a lot on my synths. I chain it with other Behringer pedals and got interesting sound. Highly recommended.
Based on the classic Boss design, this distortion pedal sounds great, especially with a hum bucker pick-up. Even with low levels of distortion it provides some real grit to the sound. There are better distortion pedals available, but this is great for the price.
Bought for experimentation purposes, the cheapest overdrive pedal I could find. Turns out it's well made, reassuringly solid in operation, sounds pretty good and is low noise into the bargain. Great fun!
