Boss DS-1 Distortion – Made in Japan – June 1984
Made in Japan in June 1984, this is an early MIJ Boss DS-1 featuring the sought-after Toshiba TA7136AP op amp.
The pedal is in excellent working order and sounds exactly as it should. Cosmetically it shows honest player wear, with paint chips and marks around the enclosure consistent with regular use over the last 40+ years (please refer to the photos).
Features:
- Original Toshiba TA7136AP (“long chip”) op amp
- Level, Tone and Distortion controls
- Classic Boss distortion circuit
- Battery or standard 9V DC centre-negative operation
A great example of an early MIJ DS-1 with the desirable TA7136AP chip and plenty of honest vintage character.
