Light differences , but I do prefer the El Cambo tones. The Steel Singer is to bright for my ears while the TS is little mushy to my ears. But I know each of us hears differently and have different preferences for hearing.

The first impression is to get off, but I don't hear that. Steel Singer and Tube Screamer stand out, as the Singer has a sharper tone with slightly less warm mids, the Tube Screamer mini is the same, but with warmer, more shaped mids (I had it). Both pedals sound good. TC is somehow drier, emptier.

I have all three of these pedals that I use with my Strats. Your assessment is spot-on imo. (Edit: I really like the "drier, emptier" sound of the El Cambo tho! My "go to" is the SS. TS Mini for "old school" vibes.)

I got it if you want that certain pedal to boost a little bit it’s great!!! Then it tends to be muddy at high gain but that’s also part of the flavor… it’s so cheap and it’s so good!!! I can’t believe it if you want better look for a very nice valve amp… or valve pedal

I own this pedal. It's a clone of the Maxon Ts9 Sonic distortion. And it's great. I'd totally agree. It's one of the best budget OD pedals out there. Just don't expect a "dumble style pedal".

Btw im doing an AB on steel singer and 808 right now. Thr steel singer sounds less altered or less distorted but requires a boise gate when the drive is anywhere above the lowest setting. The 808 also requires a gate but only when it is above 1/4 way. Stacked thry sound like a clean iron madian sound

Pretty much. I might give the El Cambo the _slightest_ edge but, not enough to matter.

Essentially, you're right they all do sound alike for the most part. And guitarists in recent years have gone completely insane splitting hairs over the tiniest, minute differences in tone due to different circuit designs among pedals. To that, I say: if one pedal sounds different from another, that is NORMAL. And if you want to get them to sound more alike, that's what the tone knob is there for. Virtually every overdrive pedal I hear being analyzed to death on KZitem is basically a $40 Boss SD, with varying degress of knob twiddling. The whole gear culture world right now is completely bonkers. It was never like this when I was coming up into guitar years ago. Most players back then, both amateur and pro, had Boss pedals. Very few pros had racks. There were about 6 different amp companies to choose from. You could still easily get a good, stage or studio ready sound out of that stuff if you knew how to handle your pick attack and adjust your guitar vol/tone knobs accordingly. Nowadays guitarists are expecting some friggin $350 pedal to create their "AHA!" moment. And not to mention the majority of the magic you hear from your favorite guitarist's tone comes from being captured using millions of dollars worth of studio equipment, and hundreds of hours of engineering and production skill. Back when I saw Rush in early 80s, Alex Lifeson was using a 50w Marshall combo and about 4 pedals, That's it. Now people are "stacking" overdrives and looing for complicated wet/dry/wet rigs. And without having written one album, or have any gigs booked. OK, That's great if that's what floats their boats, but are we hearing any great music out of it? Where are the epic songs, the short, sharp rocking jams? What with all these fancy pedals and their true bypass, tone preservation, uncolored and glassy sounds etc etc, where is the rock n roll? Is guitar now just a bunch of cork sniffing hacks playing the same pentatonic licks through overpriced gear? So much nostalgia fetishism in this community. Rock used to innovate, smash expectations and push the envelope. Now it's just another collector's club, like baseball cards, model trains; poring over each detail with painfully pedantic particularity. It's awful. It's boring now. It's just checklists. It certainly isnt about the music anymore. It's all product worship now. Sad.

I sold mine because it sounded too similar to my El Cambo. It is probably a tube screamer circuit.

That's because it is a ts pedal in essence with a couple of minor tweaks.

The Mini Screamer is the worst Ibanez TS actually you can buy, TS9 or TS808 are the real screamer tone that everyone need on his pedalboard. (Better than Ibanez, the Maxon OD808 is the best choise ever, the most pure Screamer tone)

You can just get a behringer to800 , exact same as the ts808 for about $36

Not true. The ts mini is the ts808 in miniature but cleaner. I feel that it worked great with a more bassy speaker, the jensen p10r-f. In my opinion, the maxon od808 is better than the ts808. But the maxon od808 sounds like a ts5. I actually have both of them and the difference is almost unnoticeable.

Had the ts9 for a while and sold it and got a tumnus. Years later got a TS mini and love it but always felt like the ts9 has a more smooth and over powering tone than the mini. I liked the mini more but thought it was in my head. A few weeks ago got a ts9 on a trade and put it side by side with the mini. My suspicions were true, the mini has a little more grain and doesn’t take over as much and I like it better. Yes, I adjusted the knobs all over didn’t matter.
