Godlyke’s Maxon APEX808 Overdrive Pedal

Godlyke’s Maxon APEX808 Overdrive pedal was designed by TubeScreamer creator and former Maxon head engineer Susumu Tamura. It was developed from meticulous analysis of more than 100 vintage and current-production TubeScreamer/OD808 variants over a period of three years. The APEX808’s hand-selected IC offers the unique benefit of changing the overtone components of the signal based on input level. At low levels, the APEX808 generates primarily even-order harmonics. When the input level is increased, the APEX808 generates a blend of even- and odd-order harmonics, creating an overtone series that imitates the preamp and power sections of a tube amp with remarkable accuracy. Street price: $300.
