Boss DS-1W

Boss DS-1W - Effect pedal distortion for electric guitar.

Introduced in 1978 among the oldest models in the compact BOSS series, the orange DS-1 redefined the sound of distortion and remains just as influential today. Its strong attack and smooth sustain have made it the best-selling compact effect to date, and its distinctive tone is behind the characteristic sounds of a long list of rock and alternative icons. With the DS-1W, this legendary stomp joins other BOSS classics from the Waza Craft series, combining the look and character of the original with a completely revised discrete analog circuit for an expanded range and versatility.
