BOSS DS-1 Distortion Blueprint

Designed to look like a premium framed print — not just a digital file.

The BOSS DS-1 is the world's best-selling distortion pedal — and for good reason. Introduced in 1978, its sharp attack, aggressive midrange, and unmistakable bright orange enclosure made it an instant classic. Kurt Cobain used one to record Smells Like Teen Spirit. Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Trey Anastasio have all had one on their boards at some point. It is the pedal that introduced a generation of guitarists to distortion — simple, reliable, and brutally effective. This blueprint print captures its iconic 3-knob layout and internal circuit detail in a refined technical format — part engineering drawing, part piece of guitar history. Part of the Pedals & Amps collection.
