Still looking to replace my original early 80's ts9 with a modern equivalent.
I've tried a maxon od9 but it didn't quite have the output and grit of my original one.
Any ideas??

His build quality is amazing and it sounds absolutely exact to the original.
So you can get all the classic tubescreamer sounds, but it basically has 'more'. Sadly, my switches are starting to go - get a v2 pedal with the big soft switch and it should last forever. Apparently.
I use a TS made by @juansolo . I dunno what version it's based on or any of that mallarky but it's great. It has a JRC4558 which may be either really important or really not that important
No need to spend the earth on a TS.
Recommend anybody check him out
Wah.
It might be worth opening yours up to see what op-amp chip is in it. It might be different from the Maxon version.
Changing the chip can make a difference. It definitely made a difference to my reissue when I changed the chip to a JRC 4558.
It's not a vintage accurate one. It has a few tweaks here and there. Ostensibly though, it's a Tubescreamer.
I use an EHX East River Drive.
It sounds great, cost £45.
