Just can’t beat Boss pedals. Incredible performance !

[@misterknightowlandco]

Boss pedals are the perfect balance of quality and price. They last forever, sound great, and reasonably priced.

[@filip_petric]

As soon as this pedal was announced, i thought what’s Dave gonna say about it.

[@lilSchmoob]

Even as a casual viewer I thought the same thing 😂

[@harribergman2020]

I am always blown away by your skill as a guitarist 🎶😃

[@RoadhouseMike]

Its Friday and the best way to start the weekend is with Mr Simpson. Great video Dave and cool pedal too.

[@luisvolpon1598]

What an amazing performance Dave! 👏👏👏👏👏 You are very talented and melodic. It is a pleasure to watch you playing.

[@Drew-B365]

Hey brother! Very nice sounding boost. Course the boost didn't sing just then, you did! Great playing as always my friend!

[@CrippleHandz]

My oh my, I loved your playing on this one, truly inspired. Thank you !

[@GRBAquatics]

Very Cool, Thankyou. Sounds Amazing. I have added "Booster" Pedals to each of my Pedal Boards, so awesome, brings everything to another Level. All the Best, Cheers

[@Innerspace100]

In the context of your rig, that Boss booster made a lot of sense. It made your lead tone cut through the mix better than I've heard it do before. The caveat is, of course, that I'm hearing this through the internet, with all that that entails... Wether or not it'll make sense with Carina and John in the room with you... I've no idea.

[@rod9050]

Hi dave just watched your first gig with charlie man what party that was a magic. Moment in time captured for eternity

[@angusorvid8840]

I love the tone of this pedal. Great playing too BTW. This pedal is superb for single coils. They react totally different than humbuckers. This really helps them come into their own at different levels of gain.

[@peterszakal]

Mega! Concert and masterclass in one. 🙂

[@jamesnortonofficial1566]

Just enough dirt Boss is onto something here

[@johnnorth9355]

Who's the Boss now ? Mr Simpson is in the room !

[@markinthemix6055]

I bought this and it simply works great on electric as well as acoustic guitars.

[@paulbeharrell]

Now that is how to make a Strat sing! Great stuff Dave 👍😎🎸

[@Nils_Martin]

I have to say i so happy i came across Cicci and Dave. The two most interesting musicians i've heard for the last twenty years for sure! And your weird sense of humor really appeals to me! ᥫ᭡

[@MTBTexasBikeRider]

Hi 👋 Dave I hope you have a great weekend Sounds amazing 🤩

[@Dwightpower88]

I don't think they do Thanksgiving around his parts 😉

[@gregrsvr3947]

I'd love a cd of all these intros

[@nikolaubtopou]

That intro jam was amazing

[@vintagetone22]

Great pedal .nice playing bro.👍⚘⚘🙏❤

[@Ronskie66]

I see what you did there with the title, I'm giving her all she's got, Captain! She cannae take anymore. The hulls been breached and I don't ken wit tay day, big man!

[@suleymancetinkaya2755]

I thought I am alone, nice to hear from other people who max their boost pedals.

[@nicolasmaurin182]

Great playing as always 🎉🎉🎉

[@denomdemon]

When you forget you're watching a demo 'cause the jams are so good.

[@stevegroves]

Boss gear is definitely damn good and for a lot of their pedals aand gear not crazy expensive. Great demo Dave and man your playing is awesome! Thanks for another good one mate.

[@gamer2812]

Hey Dave I’ve been watching for years and would love some more John Frusciante vids on his solo stuff

[@lukesteverything627]

Magical! Keep shining Dave.

[@karenfernley6280]

Is that Mr white he sounds great

[@TatoCuervo]

You make any pedal sound great bro!

[@paulnealgrove5016]

great playing jeez!! amazing man

[@davidsillars3181]

It is a distinctive sound. I like it a lot!

[@biffabacon1203]

Love it when you let rip yi basdad..all best from the toon.

[@jeffreymorreale7223]

Sounds really good but we all know you could plug those cables into both ends of a turd and your tone would still sound great. Love your work.

[@user-jz6to8md3c]

Your a legend dave simpson.🎸

[@joshuataft5541]

I haven't got a few new vids.. I'll re check love ya dave❤

[@alfie.godfrey]

Great stuff Dave! I know boost don’t normally have a tone control but I think this would benefit from one personally, too much treble in my opinion. Great video as always though!

[@thedavesimpson]

I agree.

[@rod9050]

On my strat I have the bridge pup wired to tone control so I pedal is to toppy I roll back said control pot

[@bluessumlin...7067]

Another beauty from Boss!🙂

[@rod9050]

Very nice playing dave

[@JasonWharton82]

Sounds great paired with my wampler pantheon which is a bluesbreaker style pedal, I made a review vid and a vid trying to get the John Frusciante tone on my channel but the way I’m using it is to boost my overdrive pedal for an in between gain stage. Really cool pedal, here’s hoping a for a full reissue of the CE-1!

[@marquisdecarabas1312]

I would realy like to visite mr. Simpson some day just to try out all his cool stuff 😂

[@mojobag01]

I use a Laney boost - it sort of adds 'spotlight'.

[@rogerYT69]

cool video thx ...have the pedal and it sounds awesome ...like the ce mode but the other 2 are also cool ...and the ds-2 love the pedal😊

[@TheSekpong]

Nice sound and nice playing

[@benallmark9671]

Great review Dave !

[@ggar9623]

this pedal looks interesting, but i have my mxr cae 404 line driver for this, it also pushes my rat to fuzz if i need it mid performance, also being short on money is a great way to kill GAS xD, anyway great review Dave, explaining how it would be useful live or recording and its good and bad things, thanks!

[@glennwoods2462]

There's nothing a good cup of tea won't fix... 🎸🤙🇳🇿🙂

[@chaseparker9]

Dave’s the man!!

[@gregmock6808]

I use a Boss GE7 EQ to do basically the same thing

[@TedVoltolina]

Thanks for showing this one! Could you pair it with the Boss CE-2W and show us that setup vs the PastFX CE-1 clone for achieving John's tone? I have the PastFX and I'm wondering if I should sell it and get that pair of Boss Waza pedals.

[@thedavesimpson]

Sadly not as I don’t have a boss chorus pedal.

[@TedVoltolina]

@@thedavesimpson How about just a comparison to the PastFX's preamp?

[@NytronX]

@@thedavesimpson How do you not have a Boss chorus pedal? It is literally the most important pedal on Frusciante's board. PastFX makes one, plz order it and compare!

[@TedVoltolina]

@@NytronX He has the PastFX (or at least he had one and did a video on it already). I was asking him to compare the PastFX CE-1 clone to the CE-2W + BP-1W combo to see which is better at replicating the actual CE-1 for John's tone.

[@secretdaisy6484]

Sounded great. 👍☮️🌞🎸💖

[@kalamazoousa4412]

KILLER!

[@alexhuevera939]

Does Playing Boss BP-1W make anyone else really happy? Boss BP-1W is quickly becoming my favorite pedal. It's just so beautiful and sexy. Practically free and the second you drop her on the board that chill ass mofo gives you a Rich Dark Gushing Robust tone.. And you also get this cute little 1/1 feedback response usually too harmless to be forgotten. But more than that, the Boss BP-1 is just so positively alluring. It comes on the board like "do you want to cast a spell?" and I'm like "yeah BP-1W i do want to cast a spell let's do this shit" and when she attacks she's like "SPELLS ARE FUN" and I'm like "yeah they are SO FUN." She doesn't say some bullshit macho shit like "I will destroy you" she's just like "nah spells are fun and voodoo spooky.” And she looks so happy. I mean this is an inanimate object that literally brought my guitar to life by magic. It understands it's life is a temporary magical gift and the dude is just fucking loving it. I mean just look at her face she’s just so happy and cute as a button. I am literally never sad when Boss BP-1W is on board. IDK if she's gonna ever make it into the pedal HOF or not, but for now she a super dope chill pedal.

[@NytronX]

So what's the best route to go? PastFX Chorus Ensemble or BP-1w + CE-1w? The latter is more expensive.

If you still have your PastFX CE-1 preamp, can you do a comparison with that and the BP-1w for John's tone? You got really close with his tone when the BP-1w was used on its own!

[@ieuanjordan575]

the second i saw it release i thought of you 😆

[@Mr75044]

Bit of Villanova junction going on there. Cool... Boss eq pedal blew me away.... Infinity. Great vid Sustain is the name of the game. Is it ok on a solid state Amp.

[@thedavesimpson]

I’m using a solid state amp. So yes. :)

[@Mr75044]

@@thedavesimpson cheers that's a winner then.

[@GazHogan]

Hi Dave and I hope all is well in YOUR world. Yet another great review for "the people of the tube" to relish,. I recently picked up a Golden Plexi on your recommendation and must admit it's an awesome pedal. What are your thoughts on the DS1 compared to the DS2 and also have you ever reviewed OR used any Sonicake pedals ?.

[@thedavesimpson]

I much prefer the ds2 personally. I haven’t tried any of those pedals yet no.

[@monkfish3099]

youre an absolute monster

[@AndyNyle]

hey Dave. Can it produce a clean boost into overdrive/distortion without having too much effect on overall levels. For example if I want to have more saturation and sustain during the solos but not necessarily sounding louder compared to the rhythm tone

[@thedavesimpson]

It can yeps.

[@seancassidy8114]

SWEET!!

[@BLUESKY-zt1nv]

i once had a boss pedal many years ago ..was in the 80s but i forgot what the effect was , i only had an amp .little , not much else really ,and i thought maybe the boss will give me a better noise ,after all my guitar was very cheap ,an old £40 electric guitar from argos , so i thought that the boss would be the answer to all of my problems , however The threadbare equipment can't twist with the promise...it was still a noise , feedback i could not control .neighbours complaining ,,screaming and banging on my door , windows and walls ,there was nothing , absolutely nothing i could do !! It was then the ill guitar met the zany equipment.

[@TheFISHknows-ez8tv]

I’m basic AF explain the signal chain to me again. You are going Amp > BP1W > DS2 > Golden Plexi > Guitar. Amirite ?

[@thedavesimpson]

Amp boost plexi ds2

[@UkuleleNews]

I wondered when you’d do this

[@jsnowdendavies]

Instant diddlydums!

[@heeerka]

Thanks Dave, I appreciate it. I’ve been considering buying this preamp, but does it differentiate a lot from jackhammer set to dirty clean? Thanks

[@thedavesimpson]

It does yes.

[@UkuleleNews]

Have you tried it with the waza chorus yet?

[@thedavesimpson]

Not yet no.

[@Paul-D]

Ive had a hammering of covid last 7 days and its left my ears shot to bits, everything sounds totally wrong so ive no idea what to think 😅

[@user-md6tx7vz2h]

Great review! Will this pedal work well with vox ac15VR?

[@thedavesimpson]

Oh yes.

[@markstephenson9280]

Is the pastfx boost redundant now?

[@thedavesimpson]

Not even slightly.

[@ishancooper]

@@thedavesimpson I just ordered from Past FX .. sounds so good!

[@martindonnan1039]

Hi, do you prefer this or the past fx ensemble crunch?

[@thedavesimpson]

Probably the past fx.

[@richardlynch5632]

😎👍 😎✌👍❤🖖

Do you think this boss ,Is better then the mxr preamp ?😊...

For me yes.
