808 silver mod! |

I love the sound of this pedal with the silver mod! I have the Ibanez 808 mod pedal and like that too, but wanted something with less midrange and the silver does the trick. I play mostly jazz and this pedal for the modern jazz repetoire adds a great texture, nice distortion while maintaining a round tone,ie less effected as advertised. It's also a great bang for the buck. You won't be dissapointed. It's also one of two pedals recommended by Mike when you get on the KOT waiting list and I can see why. I should have bought this one first!:)

Boss SD-1/808/Silver/PP Level. |

This thing sounds and reacts like nothing I've heard or used before! Very smooth sounding and extremely versatile. Clarity at whisper volumes, of the pedal or amp, and same for full-out settings!! I've used it with different amps, different guitars (P-90s and 'single-coils' only), different effects settings (slight dirt, pseudo-fuzz, and the clean-boost - WHOA!!!) The tone control has a nice wide, smooth USABLE range (a result of the Silver Option, I guess?). The gain control is toneful and I don't lose the lows. My main amp is a Vibrolux Reverb which is known for it's upper-bass/lower-mid 'hump' and the amp's character stays very true. All this with the level control in or out. I also like the BOSS pedals over the others. . . easy battery swap, more durable & those switches rarely 'fry'.

Boss SD-1/808 Silver |

great sounding pedal, just blows regular tube screamers out of the water in terms of tone and transparency. sounds great on the clean channel and it really tidies up my V32's lead channel (with the analogman logo, sunface symbol, and a kickin' green LED, it looks pretty cool too). As the other review said it doesn't have a lot of gain, but that's exactly what i was looking for. If your looking for a sweet more transparent tube screamer then look no further (Go for the Silver Mod!), and 125 bucks is a sweet deal for such a great pedal.

Boss SD-1/808/Silver |

I had previously owned the SD-1/808/Brown and really enjoyed it for a while. Then The midrange "hump" started to get on my nerves.... just to pronounced for anything other than leads. So I sold it and bought a stock SD-1. I enjoyed the flater response of the stock pedal, but it really had no character or mojo. So when I saw the Silver mod option and push pull option, I gave it another try.
Let me tell you this pedal is what I was looking for! It does leads great, and I use it for my rhythm overdrive religiously. It has really become part of my sound. It's clean and transparent, and the midrange hump has been taken care of by the silver mod. I will never be parted with this pedal, and would buy another in a heart beat if was stolen. I love the Green LED too. the only thing is that I wish it had a little more volume/gain to get just a little louder.
