Boss DS-1 Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal Silver Screw Japan Made #100

This might in fact be one of the first Boss DS-1 pedals ever made. This unit is more distortion on tap than a Keeley Ultra DS-1 or SEM modded units. Real smooth distortion and yet it allows you to play fast and all the notes can be heard. A fun unit for the bedroom wanker and/or a great collectors piece. Anyone would be happy with this DS-1, you rock stars.



This is truly a classic distortion pedal. It produces a distortion sound with a hard edge and is known to have a very low noise level compared to other distortion pedals. Many people swear that the older MAD IN JAPAN models sounds better than the newer MADE IN TAIWAN models. The DS-1 has over the years been used by a lot of the great guitar players. Steve Vai and Joe Satriani are among two players who have voiced their praise over this pedal. The DS-1 is also a favorite among modifiers. Robert Keeley Electronics and Analogmann all provide their own versions of this icon among distortion makers.



Boss Distortion Pedal Serial Number 100

The earliest versions had the silver thumb screw and the Din DS-1 placed directly underneath the t in Distortion and the famous sought after Toshiba TA7136AP opamp. This unit has it all. The Black Label lets you know it was made in JAPAN and the low serial number dates this first production unit around June of 1978.
