Daisy chaining a TS808 (1 Viewer)

[Kermit McDermott]

Anyone use an Ibanez TS808 tubescreamer?

I'm trying to daisy chain it by powering it from a boss TU2 tuner but it has that (stupid) 3.5mm jack input on the back.

You can get a lead that is 3.5mm jack to boss input jack (don't know the tech term) which allows you to power just the TS808 with a boss 9 volt adapter.

Can you get a 3.5mm input to boss output lead?

In the long run just get moose; to change the power jack on your pedal, problem solved. He's a wizard at that type of thing and reasonably priced too.

I have that cable, but its probably better to upgrade it to a real one.

if your daisy chaining off the tu-2 you want the same lead that would connect it to a boss 9 volt adapter surely? this guy: http://www.thomann.de/ie/visual_sound_adapterkabel_miniklinke.htm

I have one of those, works perfectly. Gaffa it to the pedal and you'll never have to worry about losing it.

Yep Visual Sound lad does the job nicely, or if you don't mind drilling the hole a tad bigger I can put in a Boss style jack for a tenner.

Thanks Og, that will do the job nicely. I'd say they're hard enough to find, in a shops anyway.

Thanks also to moose, I'll go with the visual sound mini jack. Just in case I end up selling it.

I'd actually pay more for one with a boss adaptor.

I agree but It might affect the resale price if it were altered, no that it's a collectors item or anything. It's a reissue.
Having said that I did get an LED put in place of the standard piss poor buld. At certain angles it was hard to see, but it's easily changed back.
