OS-2 Overdrive / Distortion
BOSS OS-2 OVERDRIVE / DISTORTION What We Say: An interesting idea from Boss, blending an overdrive with a distortion. It could work well. I’d be interested in checking this one out. What They Say: ”…The OS-2 gives players a choice of overdrive or distortion or lets them combine both–all in...
OD-3 Overdrive
BOSS OD-3 OVERDRIVE What We Say: A surprisingly good pedal! The OD-3 is a surprisingly smooth Overdrive. It isn’t transparent by any means but it does add some musical EQ into your tone. It has a decent amount of gain on tap and the tone knob is reassuringly responsive. If your struggling...
MT-2 Metal Zone
BOSS MT-2 METAL ZONE What We Say: The title of the pedal doesn’t fill me with much hope, but I am yet to try it out. This ‘Metal,’ over the top distortion is not really my thing. If it is your thing then it may well be worth checking out....

FZ-5 Fuzz
BOSS FZ-5 FUZZ What We Say: The FZ-5 Fuzz pedal makes use of Boss’ ’state-of-the-art’ COSM modelling technology. I am not a fan of modelling and this pedal does nothing to convert me. I think I will stick to the classic EHX Big Muff! That said, if you wish to...
FDR-1 Fender ’65 Deluxe Reverb
BOSS FDR-1 FENDER ‘65 DELUXE REVERB What We Say: This Boss pedal is designed to emulate the sound of that classic amp, the ‘65 Deluxe Reverb. It is designed to give your amp the characters and tones of the old Fender classic. I have never tried it, and to be...
FBM-1 Fender ’59 Bassman
BOSS FBM-1 FENDER ‘59 BASSMAN What We Say: This Boss pedal is designed to emulate the sound of that classic amp, the ‘59 Bassman. It is designed to give your amp the characters and tones of the old Fender classic. I have never tried it, and to be honest I...
