Description: BOSS / WAZA CRAFT Distortion DS-1W Effect Pedals Description DS-1 Distortion, the origin of distortion revisited by a skilled engineer. The DS-1W employs a newly designed two-stage gain circuit with a discerning full-analog discrete design by skilled engineers. In addition to the standard mode that gives you the sound that symbolizes distortion, there is also a custom mode that has been tuned to further bring out its potential.In addition to the standard mode that gives you the sound that symbolizes distortion, there is also a custom mode that has been tuned to further bring out its potential. 1. Special WAZA CRAFT series that produces the ultimate tone2. Newly designed 2-stage gain circuit with discerning full analog discrete3. Standard mode for the sound of the original DS-14. Custom mode with powerful midrange and fast attack response5. TONE knobs are individually tuned for optimum sound shaping in each mode6. In custom mode, the maximum output is increased to +6dB, demonstrating its potential as a booster7. Equipped with a premium buffer that preserves the pure signal of the guitar body The common belief that orange = distortion pedals is that the DS-1 is a symbol of distortion, and also represents the high degree of perfection as an instrument.The distortion sound, which had both crispness and sustain that was different from previous characters, enabled tight backing and relaxed solo performances.For over 40 years since its debut in 1978, this legendary pedal has been loved by all genres, including hard rock, metal, fusion, and grunge, as a guitarist's best partner. DS-1W is equipped with two modes, standard and custom. Both modes employ a fully analog discrete 2-stage gain circuit designed from the ground up by experienced engineers.Standard mode is useful when you want to play tight and clear backing play while distorting violently.Custom mode demonstrates its potential in scenes that require a thicker sound, such as modern riffs and guitar solos.You get a powerful sound with a rich midrange while maintaining the iconic sharp distortion and sustain.By using the two modes properly, you can play with the ideal distortion sound according to the scene. In Standard mode, you can play with the original DS-1 sound.The crisp yet relaxed and smooth distortion is exactly the sound that many guitarists love.You can of course use it alone, but if you connect it to a distorted amp as a gain booster, you can get a dynamic and beautiful distortion sound with the essence of the DS-1.By adjusting the balance of the range with the unique TONE knob that simultaneously controls the low and high frequencies, you can flexibly create sounds that match the band ensemble and the amplifier you are using. The DS-1W's custom mode maintains the DS-1's signature sharp distortion and sustain, while offering new sound character and response.The midrange is pushed out more strongly, giving off a strong presence even in a band ensemble.In addition, the response during picking is quick and the nuances are reflected more faithfully.Even with the same settings, a wide variety of expressions are possible, from crunch to deep distortion, depending on the strength of your picking.The effect of the TONE knob has also been specially tuned so that you can make adjustments that take advantage of the character of the custom mode.In addition, the LEVEL knob has a maximum value of +6dB compared to the standard mode, expanding the control range.It also works as a booster that strongly pushes amplifiers and distortion effectors. ■ Main specifications● Rated input level INPUT: -20dBu● Input impedance INPUT: 1MΩ● Rated output level OUTPUT: -20dBu● Output impedance OUTPUT: 1k Ω●Recommended load impedance OUTPUT: 10kΩ or moreBypass: buffered bypassControls: Pedal switch, mode switch, DIST knob, LEVEL knob, TONE knob● Indicator: CHECK indicator (also used for battery check)● Connection terminal INPUT terminal: standard type, OUTPUT terminal: standard type, DC IN terminalPower supply: Alkaline battery (9V type) or manganese battery (9V type), AC adapter●Current consumption: 15mA● Battery life during continuous use (depending on usage conditions) Alkaline battery: about 50 hours, manganese battery: about 25 hoursDimensions: 73 (width) x 129 (depth) x 59 (height) mm●Weight (including batteries): 430g- Accessories: Alkaline battery (9V type, already connected to the main unit)●Optional AC adapter: PSA-100*0dBu = 0.775VrmsShippingShipping Method : FedEx (EMS in some countries) Usually The item will be dispatched within 3~5 business days after your payment is confirmed.We always send the item with a tracking number.
