Re: asking for a TS808 PCB

R.G. | Re: asking for a TS808 PCB The circuitry on the Screamer board is an exact duplicate of the audio path of the TS-9/TS808 (which differ only in a couple of resistor values.) I intentionally left off the "bypass" switching, which did not give "true bypass". I did keep the input and output buffers in place for the sake of originality, in case the emitter followers change the sound. Jack Orman went ahead and abandoned the input and output buffer transistors in his "Son of Screamer" to cut it down further. If you want to make an exact duplicate of the 808, you have two and possibly three ways to proceed. (1)You can construct the "bypass" circuitry on a perfboard and hook that into the effects board you already have. This will then duplicate the 808 circuitry exactly. (2)You can find a TS9 and mod it - they used the same circuit board. (3)You can dig for someplace that offers an exact replica circuit board. I am not aware of any such item, and I think I would be if it existed. |
