I recently bought an Ibanez tubescreamer. It is
a ts-9 model. I wanted to know how i can find out
if it is an original Tubescreamer. Can somebody tell me how to date it?
thanks

Check out www.analogman.com - he does mods for TS9/TS10s that makes them into TS808s, basically. Pretty cool for like $60. He installs the old op amp that was used in the good-sounding TS808s. |

I havent tried it but there's a mod availible at the Weber speaker web site. It's only 20 bucks
and you can get one for the TS5 too |

Don't spend too much bucks on these mods and all.
I've got an original TS-808 (yes!), and did side by side comparisons with the cheap TS7.
Results:
Ts7 nails almost(9/10) perfectly the 808. Plus it already contains the 4558 Opamp used for the mods.
BTW the TS7 is better sounding than the RI TS9. |

As noted above, analogman will do the mod, or sell you a new modified pedal. But this guy is worth checking out as well:
http://www.robertkeeley.com/
His modified pedals are a little cheaper, and from what I have read at Harmony Central, he does a great job and is a really good guy to do business with. I am planning on getting a modded pedal from him, either a TS-7 or a TS-9. He increases the range of the distortion level knob, in other words, you can get less distortion, or more distortion than an unmodded box. He puts a cool blue LED in his pedals too.
He also sells a copy of the the Ross compressor (which he builds himself) which I hear is really awesome.
JohnS,
the Webber site is:
http://www.webervst.com/
I don't know about their Tube Screamer mods though.
and http://www.jenkinssoundshop.com/index.html will build you a killer custom cabinet loaded with Weber speakers. |

Thanks for the information on weber speakers.
BTW, I bought a pedal from Robert (on ebay). He was great to deal with. I can't tell you how his pedal sounds compared with other modded TS9s, but can say I like it a lot. |

I have TWO of the KEELEY TS9 HIGH/LOW modded pedals...run side by side ala TREY from Phish... I LOVE e'm. I run the 1st (actually second in the side by side chain) with very little OD...then the other pedal run a BIT higher in the OD department...the result is a nice ton when I run only the 1st one...then a SICK OD if I run 'em both!!!! Different strokes I guess but I LOVE these pedals! |
