Boss 50th Anniversary SD-1 Super Overdrive Pedal

In celebration of 50th anniversary, BOSS has unveiled a trio of collectible, limited-edition versions of our most popular and influential compact pedals. The DS-1 Distortion (DS-1-B50A), SD-1 Super Overdrive (SD-1-B50A), and BD-2 Blues Driver (BD-2-B50A) offer a host of unique commemorative features and have been produced in strictly limited numbers, with just 7,000 units available worldwide.

BOSS’s Legendary Super Overdrive Sound

Since its release in 1981, the workhorse SD-1 Super Overdrive has been the core gain pedal for generations of players across every musical genre. Based around the revolutionary asymmetrical clipping circuit from the OD-1 Overdrive—one of the three original BOSS compact pedals from 1977—the SD-1 delivers rich, smooth, and highly musical overdrive tones that continue to inspire guitarists everywhere.

FEATURES

• Genre-defining BOSS overdrive sound
• Unique asymmetrical clipping circuit produces tube-like overdrive characteristics
• Mild-to-moderate drive tones with focused midrange and tight low end
• Ideal for use with clean and slightly driven amps
• Also works great for bringing tightness and definition to high-gain amp tones
• Stacks well with boost, overdrive, and distortion pedals
