You Need to Check Out These Boss Pedals

[@michaelgreer4790]

Boss pedals were good enough for Prince, which makes them good enough for us mere mortals.

[@ExtremelyRightWing]

I bought a used boss rc2 from ebay in 2011 for $100. I bet i stomped on that pedal 100k times. I gave it to a friend a few years back and he still uses it. They are still around $75 on ebay today. Definately got my moneys worth outta that pedal. Boss pedals are pretty much indestructible

[@tomaslopez2940]

Boss is always my top choice for guitar pedals. My uncle dug out an old, beat up SD-1 that wouldn't turn on from an old yard sale and gave it to me once. I found a place that repairs pedals and they got it working for dirt cheap! It goes well with my shiny new DS-1 and DD-8!!! By the way, what do you think of their new Waza craft pedals?

[@coryburns13]

I'm also a big fan of the noise suppressor, but hands down my FAV Boss pedal is also the blues driver. I bought one in the early 2000's and that pedal has literally NEVER left my board. I play fender amps almost exclusively and it just always is the one I go back to. Cheers man!

[@snuffelsuf]

the ce2 , to me, sounded like the Smiths

[@stephenhenion8304]

I had a Flanger back in the day. I loved it!!

[@ToddTheJoker]

Blues Driver /BD2 as the most under-rated? Are you kidding me? There are a lot of players that use AND love the Blues Driver, it is a classic! Andy Timmons and a ton of other players have the Keeley Modded Blues Driver on their boards!

[@michaellund9139]

I love The BOSS SD2 Dual Overdrive

[@Adamantiummonke]

I got one and its great.

[@TheBotsra]

I knew there was a reason I liked you. BD2 since 95. I finally wore out my original BD2, bought a new one in 2021. Sounds exactly the same. No need to buy an old one

[@farber2]

EQ is good.

[@thejuggernaut5327]

I’m with you, Bluesdriver for President!

[@foreverboyeternal]

clean ass riffs man

[@Adamantiummonke]

I would love to see and hear your thoughts on the Boss MZ2 digital metalizer, if you get the chance check it out. I also love combining my TR2 Tremlo with my AC2 acoustic simulator together with a clean tone always sounds great.

[@1969Donovan]

I used the blues driver pedal for years.

[@todd8109]

Just got my BD-2 today in the mail

[@scozz6139]

Is that a Gibson Les Paul Studio Premium Plus on the wall behind you? Assuming it is one of those, Gibson made those, Studios Premium Plus LP models, with AAA tops and gold hardware from 2006 to 2008. Before that, in 2004 and 2005, Gibson had the LP Studio Plus line in, with AA tops and also gold hardware, I think. The guitar behind you looks like the "Natural" finish color,... that color was only available in the Premium Plus line, not the Plus.

[@trevordoolan5011]

And, Robert Smith and The Cure predominately used Boss Pedals too... .

[@crave809]

I feel like a noob! I had no idea Boss is made by Roland?! But it makes sense though.

[@darrellkelly7614]

That tuner has saved my ass at gigs. Don't forget the super chorus..that's also cool.

[@punkermd73]

10:58, I hear some Against The Current! Noice!

[@brianmiller3287]

The tr2 is just unbeatable for a tremolo....

[@glaucosouza1971]

The enhancer can be compared to BBE's sonic maximizer?? And yes, Blues Driver all the way, one of the very few pedals that never leaves my board.

[@SHENDOH]

My Sonic stomp does.a similar thing

[@CyberneticArgumentCreator]

The Enhancer over the PS-6?!

[@farber2]

Peterson stroboclip, love it.

[@TheLordcasio]

Slow Gear!

[@DanielBobke]

Totally agree on a tuner pedal...everyone should have one. Not every guitarist needs a chorus or a Blues Driver, but every guitarist needs to be in tune.

[@aflashfloodofgear]

Yess absolutely!!!

[@kellyswoodyard]

My BD2 is going into my Vox AC15 C1, that has a Celestion Creamback in it, and it works exceptionally well. To be honest Tube Screamers leave me cold. I'm pushing the BD2 with a Custom Shop reissue '58 dc Junior, a Yamano made Fender Strat, and a custom built Esquire clone. The Junior doesn't really need anything, it's a nasty beast, but why not make it nastier? The other 2 just 'open up' a bit more.

[@balmain2496]

I belong to the Church of the Blues Driver as well Alex, couldn’t agree more.

[@aflashfloodofgear]

Ayee nice!!

[@SHENDOH]

I used a CE3 for years, mainly to split my signal to 2 seperate amps. That and a SD1 were all I used for a long time

[@BattleshipHughes]

Surprised when you spoke about the tu2 and the ns3 that you didn’t mention the daisy chain power function

[@aflashfloodofgear]

It can get a little noisy when you do that, so going iso power is usually best in my opinion!

[@BattleshipHughes]

@@aflashfloodofgear I concur but you’ve got to admit that adding that function to the tuner( that everyone should have) was a solid move on the part of Boss

[@kentdaigle]

>>>Give that Lady her shoes back!!!!

[@georgesingley3746]

great to hear your great technique and tone !

[@kimL93]

Tuner tuner tuner i will always look at gig of the guitarist got a tuner or not and if he dont he doesnt care much tbh

[@PNWJEEPER01]

Lol; I don't use any pedals at all. I must be the most careless guitarist ever... Or maybe I use a different type of tuner and just actually know what all those knobs and switches on the guitar and amp are for and how to use them.

[@GROCK619]

Smiths !!! Chorus

[@bradleyfurer7847]

Xtortion

[@kurtniederstadt97]
