Great Distortion Pedal
This one i am using with Yamaha Pacifica for playing in our Church. I am combining this with another pedal Boss G1on. This pedal is very nice pedal for playing interludes in the songs, sound clarity is also very great. I have not purchased the chord but i am using with 9v rechargeable battery _ working well. This is my genuine review after using around 1 year.

Great sounding pedal for the price!
I should say this is a “moody” pedal. If you dial in the right settings depending on your guitar and amp, it is possible to get some excellent hard rock sounds with this pedal. The tone knob is tricky, works best if kept below 10 o’ clock position for me. If you turn the tone knob higher than that, the tonal characteristics complete change and start sounding extremely trebly and thin. Otherwise this is a great pedal, just look up some YouTube videos on how best to use this pedal.

Works perfectly and really good gain.
El Classico.. If you are looking for a decent Distoration Tone, this is the guy. Works perfectly and really good gain... Sounds gets really eliminated when using humbucking guitars. There is great tone and SUSTAIN.. Just make sure you have decent pickup and amp.. Am quite sure that the tone really depend upon that. Recommended for beginners and intermediaries.. And trust me It stays with you for years with out issues....

Tenía otro pedal de distorsión y no conseguía hacerme con él. Demasiado ruido. Vi el DS-1 de toda la vida por debajo de los 100€ y no me lo pensé. Acierto total. Distorsión ajustada a tu deseo en cada momento. Con los controles justos para conseguir lo que quieres cada vez. Lo dicho, un clásico con casi cincuenta años de experiencia.

Il BOSS DS-1 è il pedale distorsione che ha definito generazioni di chitarristi: gain medio versatile dal crunch blues a saturazione punk/rock anni '80, con sustain naturale e risposta dinamica che segue ogni tocco. Suono e controlli semplici: Tre manopole essenziali: Distortion per passare da boost leggero a overdrive aggressivo, Tone per bilanciare medi caldi e alti definiti, Level per adattarsi a qualsiasi setup. Arancione iconico, metallo indistruttibile, vero tank Boss che dura decenni senza battere ciglio. Perfetto su Fender o ampli vintage per quel suono "touch sensitive" che pulisce col volume chitarra. Ideale per riff taglienti senza diventare fangoso Manca il gain estremo per metal djent moderno; resta vintage, non high-gain serrato. Resta insuperato per rapporto qualità/prezzo e affidabilità assoluta. Un must per chi cerca il "suono distorsione" senza complicazioni.

I had one Ds1 decades ago. Now that I use it again I m amazed at how good it sounds. So simple yet so plenty of different ranges, from bluesy overdrive to overkill fuzz. All varying endlessly with the differents pickups, [pre] amps, personal settings, etc, you might you. Even if you re a sloppy player, the mere powerfull sustain of this pedal will carry you thru. Probably the best distortion unit ever created.
