Looper

Description
The Keeley Looper! aka JAPANESE APARTMENT!

Make any effect True-Bypass! Keep your effect pedal board commodious!

This is an incredibly small true-bypass looper box from Keeley Electronics! This little wonder is only 1 inch wide and 3 inches long. This will fit in the tightest of pedal boards and offer you a dramatic improvement in tone. Connect any effect to this unit that is "old school" and not true-bypass. In particular Vintage wahs, echos, phasers, fuzz face type pedals, etc. or even new effects that might have a weak bypass system. These elderly effects rob tone when they are off. You can make them truly bypassed when off now with this little box. Works with or without power. When you add a DC supply to this unit the two LED let you know if the loop is active or not. BLUE LED indicates your signal is passing through the vintage effect, RED LED indicates true-bypass. STOP TONE DRAIN!

Use it as a multiple effects switcher!

Add several effects in a chain and then switch them all on at once.

Use it as a tuner mute switch. Plug a tuner in this box and not only prevent the tuner from draining away your tone, but tune in silence!

Time Machine Boost

The Legendary Tones
Time Machine BoostTM has a wide range of uses. Use the Time Machine Boost to further overdrive your tube amplifier into more harmonically rich distortion or as a preamp to strengthen the output signal of your guitar's pickups. Its two footswitchable channels with independent volume levels provide further dynamics, tone shaping, and versatility.

* This is a 2 channel, 3 mode pre-amplifier (booster) for driving your amplifiers into overdrive or saturation.

* The 2 channels are labeled VINTAGE and MODERN.

* The Vintage side is inspired by rare germanium boosts like the Dallas Rangemaster.

* The Modern side a new +23dB gain dual JFET, very transparent, guitar signal amplifier.

* Our design uses a Maxim MAX1044 voltage doubling IC to get additional headroom.

* If 6 were 9 ? How about if 9 volts became 18 volts!

* As with all Keeley built electronics it incorporates top of the line audiophile style parts including metal film caps, resistors, silver solder!, etc...

* Teflon-coated wiring leaves this unit breath-taking on the inside. Open one up for yourself!

* Use the Buy Now button above or from Legendary Tones.

* Legendary Tones (www.timemachineboost.com)has a wonderfully complete description and sound clips of many sorts. Please give it a listen. This could be what you've missing in a live setting.

Katana

The Keeley Katana is a cutting pre-amp. It delivers a wealth of tone and clean boosting. Want to keep your original tone with just a dash of sparkle and shimmer added, then have the control to boost it to any volume? This is it. The Katana is a fat, harmonically rich boost. Use it all the time to push your amp harder, or as an occasional boost to cut through the mix.

Two modes, Pure Clean and High Gain

* With the Speedo knob pushed in, think of it as a volume control that goes to 20.

** With the Speedo knob pulled out, it's a cutting boost with a bit of gain. Not quite an overdrive, just some grit and edge to the tone. In this mode you get a cutting shimmer added to your tone. Perfect for Humbucker Guitars!

Features

* 9 volt DC jack or Battery operation. DC jack at top of unit like Boss or Ibanez effects.

* Internal Power Supply Boost - turns your 9 volts into 18!!! The power supply's high voltage is what leads to this super clean headroom pre-amp.

* JFET design - clean tones, tube like when they overdrive or clip.

* Push-Pull Speedo Knob. Gain controled by side mount knob so it can be adjust with your feet. Pull out the Speedo Knob for higher gain and crisper tones

* All Metal Film Resistors and Caps. Low noise Design.

* Blue LED, a Keeley Trademark!

* True-Bypass

* 5 Year Warranty

Fuzz Head

Designed to work like Fuzz Face pedals that many players use as a LEAD BOOST. A Fuzz Face can be muddy, lacking note definition, too bassy, and lacking sustain. An overdrive can be not enough or too smooth. In contrast our design is transparent, has a better frequency response, and gives you that cutting edge for lead breaks.

  • The Heart of this pedal is a NPN Germanium Transistor.
  • Additional Gain Stage, a Darlington Pair of high gain silicon transistors for tons of volume output. This is great for overdriving tube amps or other overdrive pedals.
  • Buffered output so that it can drive pedals or amps with a nice high current and low impedance signal.
  • True-Bypass, offers you a clean true signal when the pedal is off.
  • Large Blue LED, a Killer Keeley Trademark!
  • Silicon/Germanium Toggle switch, this is like a gain Style switch. The "SI" mode inserts two diodes (one silicon and one germanium in parallel) in the distortion circuit so you can have a modern twist on a vintage sound, increases the gain and compression a bit for more sustain. This is more of an overdrive mode.
  • The "GE" mode is just raw and open sounding!
  • Very Transparent and Dynamic. Taking the best qualities of the germainum designs and the overdrives. Roll back the volume on your guitar for clean sounds, a variety of Tones, Textures, and Natural Fuzz/Overdrive!
  • Internal Drive-Range Control. Let's you set up the Range of the Exteral drive control (FUZZ), perfect for fine tuning light overdrive tones, to raging Fuzz

Java Boost

Yup, ANOTHER Rangemaster clone. What makes this one even begin to raise an eyebrow is that it has the REAL DEAL, no joke Mullard OC44. Yup, Made in Holland. Got tons of them, and tons more of the even higher grade (?) CV7003 version by Mullard as well. So this isn't a limited edition...should be able to make at least 1500 or so even after the bad ones get tossed. Looking for the Ultimate in Overdrive pedal? The Last Pedal to buy? From Surf to FUZZ. No better, more natural tone in a pedal. Check out www.javaboost.com for web site dedicated to this tone master

* Modern Dallas Rangemaster Circuit
* 3 way treble-booster, Stock Vintage Rangemaster, Mid-boost, and Full Range!!!
* The switch is a very expensive locking 3 way switch so your setting is not moved.
* Metal film parts for low noise.
* BEST PART, The ULTRA RARE MULLARD OC44 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the transistor used in the mid 60's and only the best survive our critical testing. Low leakage of 150uA or less and Hfe of 80-110 are minimum requirements for the transistor to be used in our circuit.

* Second best part, DC jack and Negative ground system so it will work with your other supplies and effects and no smoking!
* Blue LED.
* Each unit is perfectly dialed in...internal potentiometers let us fine tune each of the tested and passed OC44's for optimum operation.
* Tone Control!!! Yes ours has a second way to control the frequencies of the boost made, plus the Standard Level Control.
* True-Bypass, Switchcraft jacks.
* Powder Coated case just like the Keeley Compressor
* Stamped serial number.

Ibanez TS9

Description
The Legendary TS9, THE Tube Screamer! A History making pedal! How can it be better?!?!? Well, in may ways folks! Read on.... See just how far we can take it to the limit of tone nirvana!

You might ask, "How fully natural, warm, and sweet does our regular TS9 sound?" Peter Frampton had me modify his TS808 to my specs. I felt wild doing it but heck, he loved it so much he is sending me his other ones! Thanks again Peter, nice working with you. Jon Herington of Steely Dan uses this deluxe mod, Ike Willis of Frank Zappa uses this mod! Dude, come on...this is THE Mod To Have!

THIS IS NOT YOUR BASIC CLASSIC 808 Mod, It's much more, read on Tube Screamer fans!

Well, LARRY CRANE is using one as his main pedal! Yep, Guitarist for John Mellencamp for 15 years, he defined heartland rock and a guitar tone for it. Larry earned his elite sideman status by working with such artists as Steve Earle, Rosanne Cash, Bonnie Raitt, Lou Reed, John Prine, William Golden, John Fogerty, and legendary producer Bob Johnston, among others. Please do yourself a favor and visit his site! LARRY CRANE

Keeley Effects use the TI RC4558P like the old TS808 and they all come with a BLUE LED.

* I have the TI RC4558P integrated circuit for your Ibanez Ts-9. This is what came in some early TS808 pedals. This will give your pedal TRUE TS808 sound. Many collectors agree that the TS808 with the TI4558P chip are some of the finest sounding pedals in the production. See photo of a TS808 circuit below. This is the same type pedal SRV used.

* We START with the TS808 mods. They include the change of IC to a really nice sounding one, better than the JRC in my opinion and that of most regular users. We also change the output resistors, but don't use noisy carbon comp resistors. They don't add tone! They add noise and they are not within a close tolerance. It is an engineering/physics fact that these types of parts will add noise to your system. We use metal film resistors, only wire wound resistors (which won't fit in your pedal) would have a chance of being quieter!

* PLUS, we increase the bass response so that it it is not cut off. A TS9 with full bass response, how sweet and full sounding! We increase the overdrive range. Players stated they wanted to have either more gain on the TS9 or the ability for it to clean up better when the drive was set at zero. We did that. You now have the best of both worlds! CLEANER when turned down and TWICE THE GAIN AND DRIVE when turned up with all of the stock TS808 sounds in the middle. Beautiful vocal sweet woman tone in the mid-section!

* METAL FILM FOR HIGHER FIDELITY AND A MORE CONSISTANT SOUND FROM PEDAL TO PEDAL. As your guitar sound goes from one stage of your pedal to the next part (for example; Drive stage, to the Tone Control Stage, to the Buffer Stage), Ibanez used electrolytics to couple it. Well, there is a much less harsh sounding way of doing that. Use metal film caps! We also use metal film in the tone circuit for added fidelity. Is it a small difference, yes! Is it worth it? YES, every little section of your pedal is made up and these improvements don't just add up, they multiply!

* New Improvements to the Bypass circuitry! Yes, we make it sound better even when it's off!

* New Improvement to the Tone Control circuit! Took some hints from the Sparkle Drive and made our TS9 mods just a touch better

Ibanez TS808

Description
The new TS808 offers a vintage look and sound. Many people are wondering if it needs mods since it's the Holy Grail TS808 with JRC chip installed. Sure it does! If you look at the board, it's the exact same as the TS9 and has the same "faults" if you will. Limited bass reponse that cuts so much that it appears as a huge midrange hump in the sound. Limited Gain range...doesn't get clean enough or on the other side, doesn't get enough distortion. Also, the lack of transparency or muddiness becomes a problem for many users. All these things are fixed with our mods. Our approach is to give you the most out of this classic pedal.

IN STOCK! and going fast!!!

The TS808 needs mod work! It is really the same thing as the TS9 re-issue with just a new JRC chip in it. But the chip is not the main problem with the unit or the magic part needed to make it sound perfect. Keeley Electronics mods these pedals with 1000's of units worth of experience in making people happy.

The bass repsonse is improved to the point of perfection. It is nice and tight and not muddy at all. We upgrade that cap from a 0.047 to a 0.1uF and at the same time we increase the gain possible when the drive control is turned up. That resistor is dropped from a 4.7k to a 2.4k. We also make the pedla so it cleans up more We take the 51k and lower it to 20k. This is our More/Less mod. You get both more drive and less drive as well as all the sweet stock spots in the middle of the control. We also upgrade the 1uF electrolytic caps to high tolerance, great sounding, more consistant 1uF metal film caps. This type of thing is done in all HI-FI stereos and audio gear.

We also gold socket the chip so that you can experiment if you hear one chip is better than another etc...

We also uprgade the tone control circuit and take the .22uF Tantalum to a 0.18uF for better control and response from the tone control. This allows you to get a more full sound on the lower end of the tone control.

We also improve parts of the fet switching so that you have a better clearer tone, both on and off. We check all the factory solder joints so that you don't have power supply problems anytime soon! The resistors we use are metal film to reduce noise in the system as well. Obviously, This is not the kinda of MOJO many others talk about. So think twice before sending it off to a man that promises you very little substance.

Why is ours cheaper?!?! Because we're bad to the bone and efficient as hell! Plus! we're musicians that know expenses and a few bucks here and there mean a lot.

How do I know this is the right way to mod the pedals for the masses? Because we take feedback from customers and turn it into reality. This is where YOU GUYS have led us to the perfect Tube Screamer sound! Shoot, THANK YOU!!!

NEW TS808 with TRUE-BYPASS. Keeleytakes out the stock switch and convert the Pedal to True-Bypass, perform all the mods for bass and gain, etc. and the 1982 JRC chip! Fantastic Deal! Fantastic Tone!

Boss SD-1

Description
NEW as of January, 2005. Keeley Electronics has made the BOSS SD-1 effect pedal better! Now with a unique twist, the Diode Switch is a standard feature instead of an option. This allows players to get a really heavy sound for pushing a Marshall amp, etc., or to use it as a really fat sounding tube amp simulator! Perfect for both single coil and humbucker guitars!

NOTE, this is not just a switch to make it like a TS9 as some folks do. This makes it MUCH fatter, cleaner, and more defined, AS WELL AS gives it another mode to increase the gain beyond what a stock SD-1 offers!

This pedal is a key element to many heavy rocker's tone. It's like the TS9 with more transparency and more edge. If you are looking for something in the Tube Screamer vein, but with a little more hair on it, not as much midrange push, this is it! Plus, this mod has got a Germanium diode in the clipping section as a standard part of the mod! The Super Overdrive, GE***** 5 STAR MOD! You saw it here first! Complete with metal film capacitor and resistor upgrade. Increased Bass, Drive, and Fidelity.

You get the Burr Brown option below, so you get two chips! The Burr Brown chip, which has a higher frequency response and wider sound, comes installed. The TI chip that we also send (which has a more focused sound, classic sound) is installed in a socket inside the unit. The socket is fixed to the inside so you don't have to worry about losing the chip. Replacing a chip is easy with just a pair of needle nose pliers or even your fingers if you are very careful.
