About
The Boss DS-1 is one of the best-selling distortion pedals of all time, delivering a wide range of tones from mild crunch to all-out distortion. Used by Kurt Cobain, Joe Satriani, and Steve Vai, it has defined the sound of rock for over four decades.
History
Introduced in 1978, the DS-1 was one of Boss's earliest compact pedals. Its distinctive orange housing made it instantly recognizable. The simple three-knob layout hides a surprisingly versatile circuit that has been used on some of the most famous rock recordings ever made.
