All user reviews of 5/5 for the Boss DS-2 TURBO Distortion

Well it's a Boss pedals, this is simple ... distortion with boost switch in ... clear sound.
Note that it is indestructible, has to do well 15 years I use it, and I had purchase dj!

UTILIZATION

For use, ditto, it's easy ... I would say even that it is even easier to use than other distortion pedals as it is shuffled well with other effects depending on its position on them.
A lil footswitch lets you use the boost.
It's easy to find the sound we are looking for volume, tone and distortion ragissent really well without being brand. The tone knob is a simple (not double as some of Boss).

SOUND QUALITY

The effect is excellent and Adpater is my game .. ing a friend's love it in normal use (that is, a clear sound) but I never use it as a. .. I always shuffled the average distortion pedals with this amp and it is all the original sound!
When I buy, I test all distos the store and I flash it because it fully supports the distortion of the amp, no sound pter is to say without making the sound state of the crachouillis unusable (something that most are in the distos shuffled).
Then it sounds like a espce Boost standard, all knobs bottom, a little lamp Manir an amp hot ... on the other hand, you need to know to get away with it ... then its people trying get scared because his fate alone to scratch and if you loose the ropes for a moment, a runaway, a screaming, saturation, feedback and company ... that's exactly what I wanted. You can put that sound in the live sounds CATEGORY boosts most of Hendrix (gain huge, you play a hand in everything from testicle kind of Wild Thing at the Monterey Pop Festival) and also in those actually Nirvana, Sonic Youth especially ... I say as a Sonic Youth is one of my REFERENCE Contents in its ... pedals and this offers the particularity of a perfectly matrisable feedback (with Entran) is to say that a nickel rpond Floyd ... What great feedback! Finally, the trainer can scratch the floor, step on it and have sounds crazy to come out (not just two three CRRR CRRR CRRR) ... ten years ago, I ripped off my strings fun (crazy youth ...).

So I use it with an old house not scratch REFERENCE (my Premire, the best always!), Plugs into a Morley Wha, a Hyper Fuzz (used in the position gain boost, not only fuzz) on the bottom while DS2, a flanger and a stereo amp with distortion medium / low (a work with most amps, but sounds better than on the Peavey Marshall) ... it works even on a POD amp according MODEL chosen, without saturating the input of the POD (unlike the gain of the Hyper Fuzz, for example).

Finally, I would say just that on a clear sound, it sounds too clean, a little trashy, but all in all plutt acute trash like old 80's' ... also there is a way to have the grunge sound, in fact, is the link to the good stuff. In any case, it sounds good on the clean or clear on other instruments, as something for my friend who is ing its electro ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost 15 years I would say ... Premire is my pedals (400 FF secondhand achetedj the era!) so I use every day ... as you say I worships ... it is clear that one should not dclencher all the time in my configuration, but most of my components using it.
Its particularity is that I love what I have extensively dcrire above ...
I have chosen all the distos Submitted era in the store.
The report price is great quality, cheap (even less used), at its perfectly stable and strong (she arsist all), it has since that time and fills me!

If she failed, I would buy it back within a minute, without her I am nothing, it makes all of my original sound.

That's why I put the maximum, because it fits me perfectly and I did not get any better after all this time (pretty amazing).
