Andy is my favorite pedal demo guy. He can make anything sound good, and he routinely makes good things sounds amazing. Thanks for doing another great demo.
Eh, forget the regular Boss pedals and the Sonicake pedals you cheapies! I just got the V1 Kraken pedal by Victory Amplification for only $200 (Sweetwater gave me a $50 certificate). Pedal is so worth the money and doesn't sound like it's in a tin can like Boss or Sonicake pedals.
I swear, every time I see an Andy Demo video come out, it's an immediate click and like. Great tones and competent explanations without being condescending.
It’s the first brand new Boss pedal I bought in February 1990 and I still have it. I’ve had a MIJ too and sold it, and I own the 40th Black model just for my collection. A Waza edition doesn’t appeal to me at all as I haven’t used the DS-1 since 1994. It’s a very predictable sound that’s a bit too fizzy for me, but when you’re a kid it makes a crap amp sound fantastic!
Two of the first pedals I ever got were a Boss OD-1X and a DS-1 and those have always been my go-tos for my dirty tones, definitely two of the best drive pedals I’ve ever played
@@savyur66 that’s actually more pronounced mids which can sound like a volume increase to the untrained ear. It also sounds a bit less fizzy and more full.
Well, Andy has done it again, hasn't he? Have you ever heard a DS-1 sound this good? Ive had about 3 stock DS-1s amd 2 modded. And of course Andy sounds better through the DS-1 than me.
I’ve always been a fan of the classic ds-1 and knew the waza version would eventually come, I was excited to see what they would do since the waza line has been very impressive, however I have to say I find the custom mode fairly underwhelming and a bit disappointing. Nonetheless, great demo as always Andy!
What's the best Waza pedal to get if you have a DS-1? I was curious because I like their chorus and the dimension pedal, but some of the pricing discrepancies seem to be lackluster compared to ease of entry of most their lineup. I have been wanting to purchase, but I am hesitant and try out gear when I can (my local shop has nothing and box stores are stingy). If you answer back, thank you! If it helps, I play bass (PJ) and am learning guitar (Strat).
My first pedal was a Boss OS-2 Overdrive/Distortion (you could blend between the 2 with a knob), which seems to be a forgotten pedal, so I don’t expect an OS-2w
The SD-1W is $149.99... so it's kind of funny that people are mad or surprised the DS-1W is the same price. Not like you can't still buy the regular version 😅 Killer demo as always Andy
The DS-1 is one of my old Hiwatt's favourite pedals, I was pleasantly surprised. Custom mode opens it right up, sounds nice and lively. I'll have to grab one of these if I end up keeping it, but it's way too much amp for me these days.
Standard mode sucks , talk about a wet blanket of a tone, Ive always felt this, I own dozens of great pedal creations but never bought a DS 1...my Favorite Boss pedals are OC3 and DD8...However the Custom mode on this Ds 1w is Awesome, its way right, wow! Just great , lively and just the perfect amout of brightness..Ive ordered one $99 on sale from perfect circuit in California.Great Deals..Mr. Martin floors me as Always , A Favorite of ours.
You have just inspired higher prices for Vantage guitars in the open market! My VS-690 (Super Witch) was my first real electric guitar in 1980. I pulled it out for a show in 2009 and is on my list for me to do a full set up. Is yours a new acquisition? Great demo as always! I do miss the "65 Soho" :)
Hey Christopher! Yes the Vantage Entertainer is fairly new to me, I don’t think I’d worry much on price because I haven’t found many for sale on the whole internet. I really want the set neck but this one plays very nice! I miss the Soho too, it was sold in 2009, so only used it for about a year. 👍🏻
@@AndyDemos I always enjoyed hearing you say, "into a 65 amp Soho" lol. It became a signature for you. My Vantage is not a set neck either, but it plays well and the stock pickups are fabulous in it. Definitely a trip back in time. In fact this is the first "Entertainer" I have ever seen. Thanks again :)
@@ChristopherClause Apparently, set neck Entertainers are really rare… I got mine for about €650, but I’m pretty sure its real value is well over a grand and will go even higher over time. The bolt-on neck ones are good as well though, wish you the best of luck finding one, they are true sleepers!
if i didn't already get a DS2, which i think fixed my complaints about the DS1, then i'd consider this....adding more output is a brilliant move! (i instead also yanked out a clipping diode from my ds1, and it lost some distortion of course but gained a shit load of volume! yeah!)
My opinion may change in a band context, but I preferred the scooped standard sound for riffs and chords and the extra mids of the custom mode sounded better for single notes and leads. Wondering if the running a standard DS1 into my SD1 would work just as well. I have tried and SD1 into the DS1 and didn’t care much for it. Also - the custom mode sounded better for chords and riffs once the tone went above 12 o’clock
Yea when I saw they did the DS-1 I was like....um....why not "X" instead 😂 . Hyper Fuzz woulda be a great one, could name a few others too... including the Slow Gear SG-1.
@@ballgaininc.5471 Nah, never said they have the same circuit - I don't know enough about the engineering behind them - but the concept looks the exact same to me (Tone, Level, Distortion, Mid boost switch) and I don't really hear a notable difference. For me, distortion is distortion, mid boosts are mid boosts and imo I don't think this warrants the $150 price tag when you can get the DS-2 that does the same thing but for $30 cheaper. But that's just my opinion.
@@ballgaininc.5471 I mean the DS-2 has the same functionality. A switch that provides a mid range boost and slightly more output in the turbo setting. I never thought the issue with the DS-1 was it’s EQ Curve; I always thought the problem was how fucking unusable it was past 11 o’clock on the tone knob.
@@davisgwynn4295 Note he doesn't even go past 1 o clock in this vid, and even there it starts to sound harshly trebly. On the other hand, I do find some use in diming the treble and drive to get into basically harsh fuzz territory.
@@jamiebibo4287 oh absolutely you can get some harsh sounds out of it, and it’s a lot of fun! I guess at this point Boss just sees it as a feature of the pedal lmao
As a 14 year old just starting to play guitar, this was my first distortion pedal oh it sounded great because I didn't know any better. But 40 years later I got a DS1 from somebody and I thought the thing sounded like crap. I just didn't like it and it totally pushed me towards the mxr stuff. I eventually got to where I was using a Peavey valve king that was highly modified while I was playing out. I love the tone of that thing the problem was when I went to play leads the sustain wasn't where I would like it to be. That's the same issue I find with a lot of distortion and overdrive pedals they sound great playing rhythm but when I wanted to start screaming to play leads and cut through I had to use something else added to the distortion or overdrive pedal. So now that I don't play out any longer and had to sell all my stuff , I use a little 10 watt Peavey amp, I'm pretty satisfied with using an mxr distortion 3 for a classic rock sound/overdrive and I just recently acquired a super badass distortion which I use for more metal stuff and it has a midrange control on it that lets the leads cut through and it has a lot more sustain. Top dollar stuff, no but it's all I can afford and my little apartment rig finally sounds usable. I would love to be able to afford one of these little mini soldanos or one of the bogners and try that out and just get rid of most of my distortion and overdrive pedals but I just don't have the budget for it. Now that I've rambled about a bunch of crap let's just say I still don't like the sound of the DS1 even though they've done something to it and jacked the price up.
The MIJ DS-1 of the 80's is a bit better but they are still bad pedals. The Waza is the MIJ version with an extra mode but the market right now has so many better sounding pedals so, can't really see this doing as well as they think it will.
Custom mode is a boost in other words- that's a bit disappointing to be honest. Not sure what I was expecting but- not that. I'm sure it will be just what the doctor ordered for DS-1 fans, but it doesn't make a convert of me. Never cared for the DS-1, still don't. I don't like fizz- I like growl- my favorite distortion is Deizel and/or Friedman- they both sound amazing. Sometimes I like the 5150 to but, other times- not so much, depends on how it's setup and who is playing it, I guess. Eddie made it sound amazing. Oh- and I should mention the Alairex HALO j.r.- I bought one on a whim, never heard of it before- this thing is shockingly good. I've never seen a pedal that reacts like an amp like this pedal does- it cleans up when you turn down, responds to pick attack, and stacks with other effects exactly like an amp. They're not cheap nor easy to find, they're no longer made but I'm telling you- if you want that Marshal JCM900 sound from an analogue pedal and you want it to respond like an amp- the HALO j.r. is that pedal. Why Alairex is no longer around after making such a great drive, no idea. This is the only pedal they released, that I can find. I've A/B'ed this thing against 300-400$ drives that don't sound as convincing nor respond as well. I don't know if the Marshal JCM900 was even what they were going for but- that's what it sounds like to me- maybe not quite as crunchy.
Hey Paolo, I still think the standard mode has some great applications. For this vid, I revisited my old DS-1 demo on PGS and there were some great sweet spots (I think). Thanks for watching!
I always hated how there was no change in the volume when engaged. I’m curious, on the custom mode is there actually a significant volume boost that is noticeable when I engage it at 100%? Should I sell my Ds1 and get this new one? Thanks in advance if anyone responds.
Andy is my favorite pedal demo guy. He can make anything sound good, and he routinely makes good things sounds amazing. Thanks for doing another great demo.
I really appreciate it! I think Boss did an amazing job with the custom mode, I’m glad the differences came through in the demo. Thanks! 🙏
Agreed, been watching him since the ole guitar pro shop days
Agreed. Glad to see he's still making videos. I was addicted to pro guitar shop's videos back in the day.
@@purplestuff Yup! Andy’s vids were the first I watched back in the late 00’s. 😎👍
Andy is just an outstanding player!!! Love to watch his videos!!
I would love to see the custom mode in a shootout with some of the popular DS-1 mods out there.
Part of the joy associated with the DS-1 is the low price.
Right. Waza prob jacked it $150.
I'm digging the sonicake pedals on The affordaboard
Eh, forget the regular Boss pedals and the Sonicake pedals you cheapies! I just got the V1 Kraken pedal by Victory Amplification for only $200 (Sweetwater gave me a $50 certificate). Pedal is so worth the money and doesn't sound like it's in a tin can like Boss or Sonicake pedals.
Even the regular ones are more expensive now because of all the inflation bullshit.
I must have struck a nerve, the comment which was a reply to mine was marked as spam, never saw it and still can't see it 😂
...which you can still find if the price of this version bothers you 😅
I hear Breed cleverly snuck in there, Andy! Great job as always, this pedal sounds killer
Haha, it's a 90s mashup for sure - thanks very much!!
I swear, every time I see an Andy Demo video come out, it's an immediate click and like. Great tones and competent explanations without being condescending.
Man, your riffs are always so inspiring.. And that DS1W, yes yes yes.
The custom mode completely transforms the pedal. Much better IMO. I might have to get this one.
Great demo, Andy!
The boss ds1 was my first pedal purchase almost 16 years ago. Still use it. I definitely need this Waza version
I'll wait for the OD-3 Waza. Thanks.
but od-3 is already perfect
@@liamjenkins244 Yeah eh? haha. I'd still like a Japanese made version. I would add a bass control to tighten up that bottom.
@@endezeichengrimm bass control would be handy. it's supposedly pretty easy to mod for less bass but then obviously you don't get a knob
Fantastic! I have a stock one, 2 keeleys, and one Analogman. DS-1 is a cool pedal. Definitely going to pick one of these up. 😎
While every channel is getting mad about Duke of tone MXR ..... Andy demos this new old gem. 👍
Always great demos! Your video really shows off how much difference there is in the "Custom" mode.

It’s just a volume increase

@@ogrish76 I agree, definitely not my favourite boss pedal, but given how successful it's been I thought they would have made it before now.
I want an XT-2w. 😀
Great, probably the last pedal I would want Boss to Waza Craft lol, how about a Boss EH-2W Enhancer next.
i say they designed that DS-1 in front of a Marshall jcm 800!!! it's like midding that bright low hain amp in to a 80's monster high gain amp.

That custom mode sounds so good
That Vantage is sickkkkkkk
The scooped mids in stock mode still sound terrible to me after all these years. Flick it to custom and crazy glue the switch.
Custom Mode = Album Anniversary Remaster sound of all my favorite 90's grunge bands.
That intro jam was very Nirvana meets Satriani! Very cool!!
fantastic tune !
Very cool demo video, I really like the playing.
The pedal sounds really good. I may have to get one
Still waiting on the Hyper Fuzz reissue or waza variant.
Dayum, in previous demos I hadn't heard just how much better the custom mode sounded. This is amazing though!
They are like 25 years late with this. Keeley mod is unbeaten.
To be honest this is the most "meh" waza offering. Why not do the "Slow Gear" or "Hyper Fuzz" instead?
And yet people would rather play an MIJ DS-1 over a Keely modded one. Okay then 🤔 😂
I modded the shit out of my first gen DS-1 and nothing sounds close..
Didn't MXR already wazafy it with the custom badass '78? A comparison would be sweet
it was an exact copy of the boss ds 1 keeley mod
I never liked scooped gain pedals, the custom mode sounds so much better. If you scoop the mids you'll disappear on stage.
I wish I could see you live Andy 💯🙏🏻
A little Led Zep at the end there? Andy is so cool.
Long Live Andy & his invisible guitar pick. Amazing as usual!
Love that Vantage guitar!

So... same thing as the keeley modded and the MXR 78 badass?
So a DS-1 with a BD-2 setting. Cool.
Ummm... No. It's the MIJ DS-1 with an open sounding mode.
That custom mode is IT
does Andy uses just his fingers to play everything?
Real talk - is this not basically just the DS-2? Same tone, volume, and distortion knob with a switch that boosts mids.

This actually makes sense.
The custom mode is worth the pedal alone.
like the Waza Blues Driver, the standard setting is better than the custom setting.
Andy can even make a goddamn DS-1 sound good. That being said, waza craft pedals are such cash grabs. The waza tuner for example lol.

Sounds very Zep-like.
Should have started the video with “custom mode fixed the damn tone pot”.
Haha that's what I was thinking.
What amp are you using in this demo? I find the success of DS1 depends a lot on the amp
