In 2023, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the BOSS brand, we will release a special model DS-1-B50A with a metallic-painted housing decorated with silver screws, gold knob caps, and a commemorative emblem.

He was given a special 4-digit serial number and is housed in a box with a commemorative emblem.

This collector's item with the distortion sound that has been loved for many years is limited to 7,000 units worldwide.

Unlike regular tone controls that simply cut the highs, the DS-1 allows for a very wide range of control with just one TONE knob.

Turning it clockwise will raise the highs and at the same time reduce the lows, and turning it counterclockwise will raise the lows and at the same time reduce the highs.

This unique design allows you to create everything from sharp-edged rhythm sounds to fat lead sounds with a single knob.

Amplifiers that feature a vintage sound tend to have their low frequencies saturated when distorted with a pedal, but by using the DS-1 as a booster and cutting the low range appropriately, you can eliminate the edge. It is possible to create sharp and tight distortion sounds.

●Wide range of distortion sounds from mild to heavy

The simple three-knob controls that form the basis of compact pedals allow you to create an extremely wide range of sounds.

The wild low-frequency distortion created by the step-amplification circuit of transistors and operational amplifiers is strongly supported by musicians of intense music genres.

The DIST knob allows you to freely control anything from mild distortion for amp boost to intense distortion for extreme rock riffs.
