Description

here at Just Pedals we love this Boss OS-2 Overdrive / Distortion Pedal.

If you find yourself needing both overdrive and distortion sounds, the OS-2 might be just the pedal for you. You can go from smooth rich drive to fuzzy saturated distortion through everything in between in the twist of a knob. Whether you need an inconspicuous rhythm sound or a look-at-me searing lead tone, the OS2 provides. Like most Boss distortions, it's simple to use, so once you've dialled in your sound, you can't really go wrong!

Built like a Tank

As you probably know, Boss pedals have a reputation for being built like brick outhouses! You can be pretty sure that however much you drop it, kick it, throw it and jump on it, it will still come back for more punishment! These pedals constantly survive the rigors of rock 'n' roll touring, and that's why they're seen at the feet of top touring pros everywhere. Reliability really can be affordable to all, and Boss are so sure that their compact stomps will last that they cover them with a full five year warranty.

Here's what Boss say about the OS-2

Distortion And Overdrive Together At Last!
