Modding the Screamer

The Ibanez Tube Screamer has always been a classic distortion pedal. Especially when modded back to the TS808 sound. I applied the Monte Allum modification for the TS9.


Here's the TS9 prior to any modifications.





Removing the battery cover provides access to the four screws that hold in the bottom plate of the pedal.




I followed the instructions and tested the pedal after each part was changed.





Two toggle switches are added to the pedal for this mod. Here is the pedal with the new holes drilled for the new toggle switches. These two holes could have been a scootch lower in the pedal, nearer to the crease.




Finished pedal! Monte Allum provides mods for several common pedals.
