Since 1973, BOSS has pioneered the development of unique and innovative guitar gear for players of all styles. From heavy distortion to subtle crunch, BOSS compact pedals remain the go-to for gain. And for those guitarists seeking a delicate, nuanced tone that allows technique to shine through, it’s hard to beat the popular BD-2 Blues Driver. Introduced in 1995, this acclaimed drive pedal is revered for its broad palette of sounds, touch sensitivity and articulate, tube amp-like response.
Marking the celebration of BOSS’s 50th anniversary, the limited-edition BD-2-B50A Blues Driver sports a metallic finish, silver thumb screw, and commemorative 50-year anniversary emblem. Appearing in exclusive livery with a dedicated 4-digit serial number and bespoke packaging, the BD-2-B50A features the same beloved circuitry as the standard production BD-2 Blues Driver. This collectible version is available in strictly limited numbers of no more than 7,000 units worldwide.
