Boss guitar effect distortion DS-1W Waza Craft

The orange-colored DS-1 was introduced in 1978 as one of the first models in the Boss Compact series and defined what distortion should sound like. To this day, the pedal has lost none of its influence. With its sharp attack and smooth sustain, the DS-1 has become the best-selling Compact effect to date. Its unmistakable sound has influenced countless rock and alternative music classics. With the DS-1W, the legendary pedal joins other Boss classics in the Waza Craft series.
