PRELOVED JAM PEDALS TubeDreamer 88
Preloved condition.
The JAM Pedals TubeDreamer 88 is a dual-circuit overdrive that combines two of JAM's most respected drive voices in one enclosure: the transparent TubeDreamer 72 followed by the more mid-forward TubeDreamer 58. Each side can be used independently or stacked together, giving you three distinct gain stages and a lot of flexibility from a compact pedal.
Built in Greece with true-bypass switching and a strongly vintage-voiced approach, the TubeDreamer 88 is aimed at players who want touch-sensitive, amp-like overdrive rather than heavy compression or fizz.
TubeDreamer 72 Side
The right side is based on JAM's TubeDreamer 72, their more transparent overdrive circuit. It uses asymmetrical clipping and is designed to keep your core guitar and amp sound intact while adding gain, sustain and harmonic detail.
TubeDreamer 58 Side
The left side is based on the TubeDreamer 58, JAM's take on the classic 808-style overdrive. It adds a carefully voiced midrange push and uses three diodes for asymmetrical clipping, helping it stay responsive to picking dynamics and fretting nuance.
Stack Both Sides
One of the big strengths of the TubeDreamer 88 is how well the two sections stack. You can use either side by itself or engage both for a richer, more saturated lead sound with extra gain and sustain.
Selectable High Gain Mode
The TubeDreamer 58 section includes a High Gain toggle, giving you another level of output and drive when you want more push without needing an extra pedal.

Who Is It For?
This is a great fit for players who like expressive low-to-medium gain tones and want multiple overdrive flavours without filling a pedalboard. It works especially well for blues, rock, fusion and players who like stacking gain stages into an already-responsive amp.
Our Take
The TubeDreamer 88 is a smart design because the two sides genuinely complement each other. The TD72 gives you clarity and transparency, while the TD58 adds that familiar mid push and thicker drive feel. Stacked together, they cover a lot of ground without losing touch sensitivity.
