Members Aaron SS Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 I just got a Boss SD-2 and I must say HOW DID I MISS THIS GEM??? This is easily the best boss dirt pedal I've ever used. Normal compact boss size, 2 channels, one that reminds me a bit of my Timmy and the other reminds me of the MI Audio Crunchbox. This pedal is a definite keeper. Anyone else rock one of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MakuseruSukotto Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Better than an OD3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aaron SS Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 Better than an OD3? I've not used that pedal so I can't comment but definitely better then any I've tried (I've tried most of the "standard" stuff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juice Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 I had one for a short while and just couldn't bond with it. The one I had seemed to almost have too much gain for my rig... there were no subtle settings to be able to use it as a boost or mid gain levels. It was just balls out from zero on.

Members Markymarc1979 Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 SD-2 is nice, but I love the OD-1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TritoneTerror Posted February 22, 2010 Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 I had one for a couple months, wasn't too impressed and sold it. I found a couple cool settings, it was OK but I wasn't in love with it. I'd rather use a Dirty Little Secret and an OCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm, that's weird. I think it has a lot of subtlety to it. I'm the red channel for a marshall/mesa mark type distortion that's not too over the top and the green for a light crunchy breakup/overdrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aaron SS Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 I was feeling a bit DIY'ish and decided to make my own footswitch for it. The enclosure is only temporary until I order a legit one from PPP (but cool in the meantime!). Thank you CDPHP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aaron SS Posted February 22, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 22, 2010 This videos also worth checking out because we have similar setups MIM tele > Sd-2 > delay (memory boy for me) > fender amp (super champ for me) [YOUTUBE]2xgS0DL-WV0[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Aaron SS Posted February 23, 2010 Author Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 it goes very well with clean/cleanish amps Ya, that's how I'm running it since it's essentially a distortion pedal on the second channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MakuseruSukotto Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I wouldn't mind getting one of those and putting a switch on the pedal just like the extra stomps on the RC2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RUExp? Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I have one and really like the high gain channel. I still prefer the OD-3 to the lower gain on the SD-2 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marchofflames Posted February 23, 2010 Members Share Posted February 23, 2010 I wish I saw these more around and I do wish they weren't discontinued, but oh well. One of the most underrated boxes IMO. Happy NPD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
