Maxon is continuing its 40th Anniversary celebrations for the iconic OD808 overdrive pedal with the launch of an all-new Robert Keeley-modded OD808.
The OD808-40K boasts Keeley’s all-new ‘Max-Gain’ mod, which promises a hotter, stacked-gain sound while still delivering the classic 808 sound.
“The sleek and classic sounding Maxon OD808 has always been a favourite of mine. What I have always wanted to do is fully realize the mods in my head,” says Keeley.
“I wanted to change several aspects at once. For this 40th anniversary edition I put everything into making it a very hot, stacked gain sounding overdrive. It is everything a classic OD808 is, just maxed out!”
As per Maxon’s previously announced 40th Anniversary Tube Screamer, just 400 OD808-RK pedals will be produced - the first 40 will be hand-signed by Robert Keeley and feature a mini-toggle switch to go between original and Max-Gain modes.
Serial numbers #41-400 go for $199, while the first 40 Keeley-signed versions cost $400. Head over to Godlyke for more info.
