Boss DS-1 40th Anniversary, AD-2 Acoustic Preamp

The timeless classic DS-1 Boss Distortion pedal celebrated in a limited edition Black finish.

In 1978, BOSS engineers developed a unique distortion circuit for the DS-1 that produces tight, hard-edged gain with rich harmonics while retaining the unique characteristics of different guitars and playing techniques. Hard rock, metal, and punk styles began to flourish in the ‘70s and ‘80s, and the DS-1’s tone had a defining influence on these genres. That trend has endured through multiple generations, and players around the world continue to seek out the classic DS-1 sound.
