Obviously Ibanez makes a Mini 808. But what is the best non-Ibanez version? Mooer, Donner, what? Anyone with thoughts or experience???

See if anyone has a Lil Modified Overdrive in stock. It is a really great TS-based OD, better than Ibanez.Administrator of the SDUGF

You may want to consider the Wampler Belle Transparent Overdrive Pedal.
The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

I liked the Cusack Scream mainly because it doesn't have a footswitch (it's designed to be used in a loop) so the knobs are bigger. It also has a lot of gain and has different modes.
Honestly, the Ibanez mini is great and that's what I would use in a normal pedalboard.

While we are on the subject of mini pedals, what's the appeal? Any time I've needed to save space on my board, I just look at it and realize I don't actually use half the stuff that's on there.You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright
Whilst you can only wonder why

If I need a board, bigger board, different board, I can make one in an hour with a few boards, a saw, some screws and spray paint + Velcoro.Originally posted by Bad City

I must pose the question.... Is there really a bad Tube Screamer?
I mean, you can dial in something nice with any of the chipset versions and it's a super easy circuit to copy.
