Boss Product Overview
The Boss BD2 is the king of blues overdrive. Whether you're looking for a gently overdriven vintage warmth to colour your sound or explosive distortion you can dial the blues tone that's right for you.
Part of the compact and tough BD2's beauty lies in its simplicity, with just 3 knobs for LEVEL, TONE and GAIN and power from a 9v battery/mains adaptor. This means you can spend less time adjusting the pedal and more time playing.
