JAM Pedals releases Tubedreamer Screamer MK2 with second footswitch
May 14, 2026 · 2 sources
JAM Pedals has released the Tubedreamer Screamer MK2, an update to its Tube Screamer-style overdrive that moves the High Gain option from a toggle-switch to a second footswitch and adds a No-Diode clipping mode1. Guitar Pedal X reported the pedal on May 14, 2026, and Gearnews followed on May 1512.
The MK2 keeps three controls, labeled L for level, G for gain and T for tone2. A mini-switch selects between two clipping modes: an asymmetrical clipping stage with three diodes, which Gearnews describes as more compressed and dense with less reaction to dynamics, and the diode-less mode, which it describes as more open and dynamic with greater headroom and clarity2. Guitar Pedal X lists the controls as Level, Gain, Tone, Clipping (Asymmetrical / No-Diode), High Gain Footswitch and Engage/Bypass Footswitch1. The second footswitch activates high gain, and an internal trimmer sets the high gain volume2. Gearnews reports the pedal uses the JRC4558D chip, and that JAM Pedals says it has improved headroom and reactivity to dynamics2.
"So the JAM Pedals TS808 take gets another spin around - moving the High Gain option from toggle-switch to Second Footswitch, while we also get a new potent 'No-Diode' clipping mode"
The Standard "bulb" edition and a limited "Glowing Sunset" Custom Shop edition are available through the JAM Pedals webstore for order or pre-order1. Gearnews gives a price of $243.002.
