808-40


Ibanez isn't the only one marking an anniversary event this year with a commemorative pedal. Maxon has its OD808 40th anniversary model (unfortunately limited to 400 units) to remind the world where the Tube Screamer is coming from. For those of us who gets on with a strict embrace of one pedal over the other, we need to stop & re-visit this history. The Maxon & Ibanez camps collaborated to give us some of the most enjoyable over drive manifestation in history. They subsequently disembarked on a separate journey once the collaboration was over & we note that this wasn't detrimental to either camps. 

Am I looking forward to this one? If it gets here then it's worth checking out. Otherwise, Maxon has a formidable range of over drive in its current catalog to serve our needs.
