Pepe - BOSS OD-2R Turbo OverDrive Demo

A small demonstration to show the sound spectrum of the BOSS OD-2R. I conciously played the distortion pedal without an amplifier to get the unaltered output sound. Of course I know that any distortion pedal sounds better when it is played through an amp!

In order to guard against simple questions concerning the operation of this pedal, I refer to the manual that you can officially download as a PDF document here:

Eine kleine Demo, um das Klangspektrum des BOSS OD-2R zu präsentieren. Ich habe den Verzerrer mit voller Absicht nicht über einen Verstärker gespielt, um das Ausgangssignal des Effekts nicht zu verfälschen. Natürlich bin ich mir bewusst, dass jeder Verzerrer noch viel besser klingt, wenn man ihn vor einen guten Amp schaltet!

Um simplen Fragen bezüglich der Bedienung des Pedals vorzubeugen, verweise ich auf die Bedienungsanleitung, die ihr hier offiziell als PDF-Dokument herunterladen könnt:

I'd be more interested in the guitar it is being played on.

@epiloguer

It is a late 80's Fender Stratocaster, Made in Japan. Black with white three-layered pickguard, maple neck, single coil pickups. Up to now it's my only electric guitar. I played lots of guitars in the last 11 years (I used to work daily in a music shop), but this Stratocaster is among the 10 best electric guitars that I have ever laid my hands on.

i have this pedal but it hums alot. does anyone know the reason?

[wwwPepeMusicDE]

@haryomirsandi

Maybe the pedal is faulty, but it can have several other reasons:

- How do you power the pedal? (Batteries or power supply? Which power supply?)

- What guitar do you use? (Single coil pick-ups or humbucker?)

- Do you use quality cables? (Never ever save money in the wrong place!)

- Do other overdrive/distortion pedals hum as well? (If you HAVE other pedals of this kind)

- Is an old PC monitor (CRT display) or other electronic devices in the near of your guitar?

@bondmaxbondrock

The answer is simple: the OD-2R! It's one of the finest overdrive pedals I have ever come across and it is my favourite BOSS overdrive! I work in a music shop for 11 years now and I have tested several drive pedals of many brands (not the boutique stuff, though), the Dyna Drive as well. The DN-2 gets a very bad reputation in various forums (also in the bossarea forum). And justifiably so! This is an example of how bad COSM can be! There are a lot better COSM pedals (RT-20)!

[bondmaxbondrock]

whats better- the dyna drive or this?
