In this video, I am taking a look at the Maxon OD808 Overdrive pedal, which boasts to offer up *the* authentic warm tube overdrive sound we all know and love.

The Maxon OD808 probably isn't a pedal that needs an introduction to some of you, most of you are looking at this right now and thinking, "hey, that looks kind of familiar."
I fall into that camp of people that know of Maxon, but have never really had any experience with them. Maxon has some historical significance in the market from the early days. Given that the most popular overdrive pedal is the Ibanez Tube Screamer, which goes back to my earlier point about why it looks familiar, it is important to know that Maxon actually designed and was ghost building the Tube Screamer for Ibanez. The two significant tube screamers are the 808 (the original) and then the OD9 which is the Ibanez TS9 circuit and they offer both of these circuits in their Maxon branded line of pedals because of the success that they had building it for Ibanez. There is a reason that this pedal and the ones from Ibanez that use the same circuits are pretty much the gold standard of overdrives.
