The Boss DS-1 is a distortion pedal for guitar, manufactured by the Roland Corporation under the brand name Boss since 1978. The first distortion effects unit made by Boss,[1] it has become a classic effect, used by many notable guitar players.[2]
Boss released a successor, the DS-2.[3] The DS-2, "Turbo Distortion" was released in 1987, and is very similar to the DS-1 except that it features a "turbo" setting, which produces a sharper midrange tone.[4] Boss released a black limited edition 40th Anniversary model of the DS-1 in 2017.
