Boss SY-1 Synthesizer Guitar Pedal
Guaranteed Safe Checkout:
The Boss SY-1 brings BOSS's guitar synth technology into a compact pedal, offering 121 responsive sounds without requiring any synth-programming background - it operates as simply as a standard stompbox. Built on technology first developed for the SY-300, it transforms any guitar or bass into a synthesiser via a standard 1/4-inch cable, and all sounds are polyphonic, supporting single notes and chords alike. Custom DSP delivers latency-free performance, so playing feels like a natural extension of the instrument without altering normal technique.
Highlights
- 121 total synth sounds across 11 categories, all polyphonic for single notes and chords
- No special pickup required - works with any standard guitar or bass via a 1/4-inch cable
- Latency-free performance built on custom DSP and technology derived from the SY-300
- Hold function sustains the last synth sound so you can play normal guitar over the top
- Parallel send/return loop with independent mix controls for blending with other pedals
- Mode switch optimises the synth engine for guitar or bass, with support for an external footswitch or expression pedal
