Boss SD-1-B50A 50th Anniversary Overdrive Pedal (Limited)
Guaranteed Safe Checkout:
Since 1973, BOSS has developed guitar gear for players of all styles. Its compact pedal design debuted in 1977 with the OD-1 OverDrive, and in 1981 BOSS released the SD-1 Super OverDrive with the added benefit of a tone control - a pedal that has remained in continuous production ever since. Marking BOSS's 50th anniversary, the limited-edition SD-1-B50A Super OverDrive uses the same circuitry as the standard-production SD-1 but is finished in a metallic livery with a silver thumb screw, gold-capped knobs, and a commemorative 50-year anniversary emblem. Each unit carries a dedicated 4-digit serial number and comes in bespoke packaging, with worldwide production limited to no more than 7,000 units.
