Pedal Boss SD 1 Super Overdrive
The SD-1 produces the slight distortions of a valve amplifier, keeping the nuances of the picking of each guitarist and acting according to the dynamics. The unique asymmetrical circuits of the BOSS produce genuine Overdrive effect. The "TONE" function provides a perfect pitch adjustment.
The BOSS SUPER OverDrive SD-1 is a super pedal for guitarists looking for a genuine sound for their technique.
When you need a little more dirt and support but don't want to depend on your amplifier for that, the BOSS SUPER OverDrive SD-1 provides the best sound on demand.
The BOSS SUPER OverDrive SD-1 is a compact pedal that simulates the tone of the tube amplifiers when stimulated beyond the limit, resulting in a smooth and warm distortion. The best part is that the distortion responds to all the dynamics and intensities applied by the guitarist, so that he can apply all his expressiveness and obtain the exact amount of distortion he needs with just a touch of the reed.
Its responsiveness and subtlety have made the SD-1 very popular with rock and blues guitarists, as well as other genres who need to highlight guitar lines without having to increase the volume of the amplifiers.
The BOSS SUPER OverDrive SD-1 is a simple to use pedal. Just turn on the guitar and set the volume level on the Level control. The Drive potentiometer is used to take the signal beyond the breaking point and as far as they deem necessary, and the Tone gives it shape and warmth, adjusting the timbre with all precision.
The end result is a genuine and quality sound, which has already proved itself at the feet of the greatest guitarists of the last decades. It is one of the most important pedals ever and one that should be part of any guitarist's arsenal.
Both in sound and appearance, it is a BOSS pedal: resistant and compact, the SUPER OverDrive SD-1 is capable of withstanding all the natural demands of life on stage, with great longevity even under intensive use.
The SD-1 works with either an adapter or a 9V battery, which provides power for up to 60 hours, depending on the quality of the battery and the conditions of use.
