Tradition Deluxe
Everything that you love about the original Tradition, now with an additional boost setting. The right footswitch is for the overdrive circuit and the left footswitch is for the JFET boost circuit. The clarity of the boost is adjustable via an internal bias control, so you can set it up to be a completely clean boost or a saturated dirty boost. This pedal has a completely independent boost section which means that even with the overdrive turned off, the boost can be activated and used to boost other pedals or push your amp (with over 20db of boost!). A mini toggle switch allows you to change the order of the overdrive and boost circuits within the signal path. Use the boost before the overdrive for more gain, or place it after the overdrive circuit for more volume.

Tradition Overdrive
Pedals become classics for a reason. The Ibanez Tubescreamer TS808 is probably the most popular pedal of all time, and it is also the framework for several other well-loved pedals. With the Tradition, I’m passing on the story with some of my favorite plot twists. A lot of players like to leave the gain super low on a TS, so I extended the gain range to allow cleaner drive settings than a stock TS808 while also adding some extra gain to the end of the dial. I’ve done the popular “amp-like” mod that changes the standard symmetrical diode arrangement to give more volume and make the clipping less compressed and also some adjustments to decrease the noise floor. A FAT knob allows you to subtlety cut, retain, or boost the low end fullness to fit your needs and the linear TONE knob offers a wider span of adjustment. No TS style pedal would be complete without the famous 4558 chip. The 4558 is mounted in a socket, meaning no soldering is necessary if you want to experiment with your favorite op-amp chip. This pedal is also handwired for true bypass switching, meaning the pedal will not alter your bypassed tone.
