MGR/Anonymous « Boss DS-1 Distortion Pedal »
Published on 03/04/04 at 15:00Local music store for $42. I bought it because I needed a good distortion to play solos. Also, I bought it because it works great with my wah pedals and other effect pedals.
The distortion isn't too heavey or too trebly like most other distortion pedals. It is a really good musical distortion pedal. Even though there aren't too many nobs to get the setting you might want, the nobs it has are better than having a lot. Mainly, it sounds great. The way you know that the ds-1 is the best distortion pedal, is that all of the best guitarists use them, like Satriani and Vai.
I think it is an awesome distortion pedal,there isn't anything I don't like about it. This isn't a pedal for people who want a huge distortion, like the metal zone pedal, which is also an insane pedal.
Built a lot better than DOD or Ibanez pedals. It'll last forever, unless you throw it a huge building. Boss makes probably the best pedals, and the DS-1 is probably at the top of the list for the best distortion pedal.
If you aren't lookin for a heavey metal pedal, than buy the DS-1, it is the best and used by the best.
