Godlyke Ibanez TS9 Tamura-Mod
Godlyke · pedal
The Godlyke Ibanez TS9 Tamura Mod is a factory-modified version of the Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer overdrive, with modifications performed by legendary Japanese circuit modifier Kenji Tamura. Like the TS808 Tamura Mod, the TS9 version receives Tamura component enhancements that improve the dynamics, harmonic richness, and openness of the standard TS9 circuit. The TS9 delivers a slightly brighter, more forward midrange character than the TS808, and the Tamura modifications refine this character further for a more expressive, dynamic drive.
