So many opinions and I can't seem to find one that makes sense! Maybe I just haven't found the right site.
I'm trying to find the age of my old TS808 (serial number 0812095) cos I'm thinking of possibly trying to sell it.
Maybe the 0 at the beginning is for 80, as in 1980? Anyone know anything about it? Thanks

LOL, yup, Blake
I mainly use fuzz faces as overdrive anyways (volume and fuzz on the pedal maxed; guitar volume low).

Pretty much the same way I use a Fuzz Face too.
