Only 1500 box sets will be produced, and each comes in a deluxe presentation box with the BOSS 40th Anniversary logo and a numbered message card.In 1977, BOSS introduced the now-famous compact series with the OD-1 Over Drive, PH-1 Phaser, and SP-1 Spectrum. Often referred to by collectors as the “traffic light series” because of their red, yellow, and green colors, these three pedals launched an effects revolution that continues to this day. With over 15 million units sold and counting, the iconic BOSS compact design remains as vital as ever, and continues to influence music makers all over the world. Now, dedicated BOSS fans everywhere can enjoy the classic sounds that started it all with this one-of-a-kind, hand-wired reissue set

The reissue OD-1, PH-1, and SP-1 pedals are produced exactly as the originals were, with wiring and circuit adjustment performed by hand on a special production line in Japan. All electronic components are carefully selected, ensuring fully accurate reproduction of the original pedals’ sound and response. Each pedal also features useful modern performance improvements that have absolutely no effect on the tone. With its expressive touch, subtle mid boost, and tight bass response, the OD-1 is well-loved by guitarists as a standalone pedal for all types of music styles, and as a front-end booster for amps and distortion stomps. The OD-1 reissue features a circuit with four op-amps, just like the earliest versions of the pedal. In addition, the diodes have been carefully selected to accurately reproduce the original OD-1 response characteristics.
