    Were you a DS-1 or an MT-2 kid?

      One really followed t'other. DReams of being Joe Satch replaced by the desire to shred ear drums with a 6 string-ed Dimebag chainsaw took over. C'mon old Valvestate... lets go!

      DS-1.... 'cause I'm so old BOSS hadn't made any others yet, lol. Had 3 pedals in the entire band: Bass: Chorus. Rhythm: OD-1. Lead: DS-1. May you R.I.P. simpler times, you're missed...

      In 1978, when the DS-1 came out, I stopped using the MXR Distortion+. Into the Marshall JMP's of that era, you could really dial in a great sound with the DS-1. Eventually, I would run the DS-1 into an MXR 10 Band EQ, and was able to dial in whatever I needed.

    I haven't been 14 in a long time. Back then, we were slumming it with DOD pedals, Crate amps, and low end Peavey.
    Also, this gentleman does not play like he is 14.

    DS-1 was my first pedal when it and the SD-1 were $30 USD new online. Back when a MIM Strat or Tele was $399 and 65 DRRI was 799 USD.

    To be fair, if you're 14 and playing a DS-1 for the first time you're gonna crank the tone control all the way up and then throw it in the bin.

    I think I had that shirt when I was 14, my first boss pedal was a mt-2, I always wanted a ds-1 because I read Joe Satriani used one, but I think his was modded? Back in the day?

    Back in my day, no 14 y/o could play like that. But we could all build our own BMX bikes and jump them pretty good unless you were a wuss. Teen guitar players were also poor. Played mostly Gorilla and Peavey amps, plastic distortion pedals. I had a Washburn AD2 - black with red/orange knobs. Ran it into a Fender Sidekick 10.

    This is so historically inaccurate. No one played this pedal at 14yo with the gain at less than 3 o'clock.
