Description: * DescriptionThe DS-1 Distortion is a re-examination of the origins of distortion by skilled engineers. The DS-1W uses a newly designed two-stage gain circuit with full analog discrete components, created by skilled engineers.In addition to the standard mode, which produces the iconic distortion sound, it also has a custom mode that has been tuned to further enhance its potential. 1. Specially designed “WAZA CRAFT” series for creating the ultimate tone2. Newly designed 2-stage gain circuit with full analog discrete components3. Standard mode for the original DS-1 sound4. Custom mode with powerful mid-range and fast response5. The TONE knob is specially adjusted for each mode to allow optimal sound shaping6. In Custom mode, the maximum output is boosted by up to +6dB, making it a potential booster7. Equipped with a premium buffer that preserves the pure signal of the guitar itself The common perception that orange = distortion is represented by the DS-1, which is a symbol of distortion and also shows the high degree of perfection as an instrument.The distortion sound, which combines a crispness and sustain that is different from the character of previous models, makes it possible to play tight backing and expansive solo performances.This legendary pedal has been a guitarist's best partner for over 40 years since its debut in 1978, and is loved in all genres, including hard rock, metal, fusion, and grunge. The DS-1W has two modes: Standard and Custom. Both modes use a newly designed, fully analog, discrete two-stage gain circuit designed by expert engineers.The Standard mode is useful for playing tight, clear backing while heavily distorting.The Custom mode is ideal for modern riffs and guitar solos, where you need a thicker sound.You can get a powerful sound with a rich mid-range, while maintaining the iconic sharp distortion and sustain.By using the two modes, you can play with the ideal distortion sound for the scene. In Standard mode, you can play with the original DS-1 sound.The crisp, yet smooth and expansive distortion is a sound that many guitarists love.Of course, you can use it on its own, but if you connect it to a distorted amp as a gain booster, you can get a dynamic and beautiful distortion sound that has the essence of the DS-1.By adjusting the balance of the frequency range using the unique TONE knob, which controls the low and high frequencies simultaneously, you can create a flexible sound that suits the band ensemble and amp you are using. The DS-1W's Custom mode maintains the sharp distortion and sustain that are the hallmarks of the DS-1, while also achieving a new sound character and response.The mid-range is pushed forward more strongly, giving it a strong presence even in a band ensemble.In addition, the response when picking is quicker, and nuances are reflected more faithfully.Even with the same settings, a wide range of expression is possible, from crunch to deep distortion, depending on the strength of the picking.The TONE knob has also been specially tuned to allow you to make adjustments that make the most of the character of the Custom mode.In addition, the LEVEL knob has a wider control range than in Standard mode, with a maximum value of +6dB.It can also be used as a booster to powerfully push amps and distortion effectors. ■Main Specifications●Nominal input level: INPUT: -20dBu●Input impedance: INPUT: 1M Ω●Nominal output level: OUTPUT: -20dBu●Output impedance: OUTPUT: 1k Ω●Recommended load impedance: OUTPUT: 10k Ω or more●Bypass: Buffered bypassControls: Pedal switch, mode switch, DIST knob, LEVEL knob, TONE knobIndicators: CHECK indicator (also used for battery check)Connector: INPUT jack: standard type, OUTPUT jack: standard type, DC IN jack●Power supply: Alkaline batteries (9V type) or manganese batteries (9V type), AC adapter●Current consumption: 15mA●Battery life during continuous use (varies depending on usage conditions) Alkaline batteries: approx. 50 hours, manganese batteries: approx. 25 hours●External dimensions: 73 (W) x 129 (D) x 59 (H) mm●Weight (including dry batteries): 430g●Accessories: Warranty card, leaflet (safety precautions, usage precautions, contact information), alkaline batteries (9V type, already connected to the main unit)●Optional AC adapter: PSA-100* 0dBu = 0.775Vrms * ShippingWe ship using FedEx, DHL and Japan Post. * PaymentWe usually ship within 5〜10 business days of receiving cleared payment. * International Buyers - Please Note:Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges.These charges are the buyer’s responsibility.Please check with your country’s customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
