The VOX Tone Garage V8 Distortion (V8DS) is a high-gain distortion pedal designed to deliver awe-inspiring tones suitable for heavy riffs, soloing, and cutting high-gain lead sounds.

The pedal is built with a tough die-cast body for durability and features true bypass design for tonal confidence even when the effect is off. It utilizes newly developed Hi-Volt technology on the tube stomp models, allowing the tube to operate at 200V. The pedal's internal structure contains all-discrete circuitry, with no integrated circuits such as op-amp ICs, and uses rigorously refined discrete circuits. The true bypass design ensures that the sound of the guitar will not be compromised or colored when the effect is bypassed.
