Unlike its predecessor, the D&S (which was a Big Muff clone), the D&S II features a unique circuit often described as a hybrid between a Tube Screamer and an MXR Distortion+. Key Technical Specifications (1979 Model)Circuit Design: Uses a dual op-amp design with germanium clipping diodes (distinct from earlier silicon versions), providing a warmer, more natural "tube-like" response.Controls:Distortion: Adjusts the amount of gain/saturation.Tone: Controls the frequency response.Balance: Functions as a volume/level control.Chassis: Housed in a small, narrow die-cast aluminum case.Power: Typically runs on a 9V battery or a 9V DC power adapter (note: 1979 models often featured the "narrow" box style with an LED and power jack). Sonic CharacteristicsHybrid Tone: It sits between a standard overdrive and a fuzzy distortion, offering more low-end heft and "grunt" than a typical Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer.Compression & Sustain: Known for its "silky" sustain and gritty breakup, mimicking a low-wattage vintage amp being pushed to its limits.Transparency: Unlike the "mid-hump" associated with later overdrives, it is praised for retaining the original character of the guitar and amp. Historical ContextMaxon was the original OEM manufacturer for Ibanez. The D&S II (model OD-802) was a precursor to the famous 80-series pedals and is highly sought after by collectors for its specific 1970s analog "mojo".
