Customers like the performance of the guitar effect device.

I need a little push on the front of the amp. This can boost your pickups with no gain added (just using level).

However, crank the gain to about 3 o'clock and you'll be pleasantly surprised.

So far I'm really liking the BD.

I wasted my time and bough a joyo then return it the same day, this is the real deal, quality in both build and sound, joyo sounded decent but they use the cheapest components, inputs were so cheap and the switch was hard and grinding. You get what you pay for.

I like bluesy overdrive pedals and this one is one of the must haves. I have a Tube Screamer, A Bad Monkey and this one in my pedal string. All three are my favorites. I have a TS9, and a Blues Driver II and a Mojo tone but the Boss is first among almost equals.

Reviewed in Mexico on March 17, 2024
Style: StandardPattern Name: PedalVerified Purchase
Reemplace un overdrive 'transparente' (estilo Klon Centaur) con este BD-2. Me encanta que este overdrive llegué a tener sonido de fuzz muy leve. Suena como a un tube screamer hasta que el gain pasa de las 12 en punto. Después de ese punto empieza a sonar a una mezcla de distortion y fuzz.
Excelente para tocar rock clásico, puedes obtener tonos de Clapton o Page sin problemas.

La calidad de construcción es buenísima. Yo creo que esté pedal seguiría funcionando aún después de ser atropellado por un camión.

Awesome pedal, great sound, and adjust-ability. Too bad the price on Amazon was significantly higher than in the local stores, and that is the reason for 3 stars value for money. Check local store prices before buying, I've got burned and that is not nice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional range of pure tone
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 25, 2023
Style: WAZA CraftPattern Name: PedalVerified Purchase
I can't compare this to the non-Waza version since haven't tried that one.

For reference: I'm using this with various guitars and pickups, going into the clean channel of a valve amp I'm very familiar with.

First, the tone and musicality of this pedal is remarkable - in a very good way - ranging from almost creamy to super biting, as you change the settings. There is a huge range of gain. At low levels it can act as a tone enhancing boost. Right though to smooth searing blues lead.

The volume had all the range you could need, so great for a solo volume increase if that's useful for you.

At reasonable gain levels there's no discernible added noise or hum, and the dynamic sensitivity of this creature is so responsive to touch, finger or plectrum intensity, and guitar volume knob that I spent hours with the pedal set to on, and just vibing out using my guitar controls and pickups and having a magical vibe out.

Yet to really explore the custom setting switch tones, but initially, that introduces another spectrum of slightly different options.

I am over the moon with this pedal and highly encourage you to try it if looking for this type of pedal. I've owned the closely competing green pedal by another brand, which is also phenomenal, so I don't see it as better or worse, just different. This one suits my preferences better, but that's entirely subjective.

A final word: I'm finding this great as both a viable extra amp channel, as well as something I can keep on whilst using the clean channel (set to really clean) and breaking up the sound purely by rotating the guitar's volume knob.
