Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive Pedal with Power Supply Overview
The Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive Pedal with Power Supply is the essential overdrive for pros and beginners alike. Earning itself legendary status, based on 40 years of peerless performance - this is easily the most unique overdrive pedal on the market. All thanks to clever asymmetrical clipping. Most overdrive pedals clip symmetrically, giving a slightly thinner sound - that's because asymmetrical clipping creates more harmonic overtones. This gives a richer, thicker sound overall. It's a design feature which is patented by Boss (Roland) meaning the SD-1 is the only overdrive pedal that can offer this incredible tonal secret. And all this iconic tone comes included with a Boss PSA-230 too. So you not only receive a pedal with serious sonic attitude and versatility, but an official Boss Power Supply with almost 10 feet of cable length, giving you immense performing freedom both tonally and physically.
