Overdrive, distortion & fuzz effect pedal
Introduced in 1978 among the earliest models in the BOSS compact series, the DS-1 redefined the sound of distortion and remains as influential today as ever. Its hard-edged attack and smooth sustain have made it the best-selling compact effect, with over 1.5 million units sold to date. The iconic orange stomp is behind the signature sounds of a long list of rock, alternative, and fusion legends, and its aggressive tone can be heard on countless famous tracks. Filled with artful Waza Craft refinements, the Boss DS-1W expands the DS-1 experience for a broader range of styles and applications.
