The SD-1 Super OverDrive pedal produces the warm, natural distortion of an overdriven tube amplifier while maintaining the subtle nuances of a player's picking technique. This is one of BOSS' more subtle and smooth overdrive pedals, perfect for blues and rock.Input Impedance: 470 k ohmsOutput Impedance: 10 k ohms or greaterConnectors: INPUT Jack, OUTPUT Jack, AC Adaptor Jack (DC 9 V)Power Supply: DC 9 V: Dry Battery 9 V type (6F22/9 V), AC AdaptorCurrent Draw: 6 mA (DC 9 V)Accessories: Dry Battery 9 V type (6F22/9 V)Option: AC Adaptor (PSA-Series)Input Impedance: 470 k ohmsOutput Impedance: 10 k ohms or greaterConnectors: INPUT Jack, OUTPUT Jack, AC Adaptor Jack (DC 9 V)Power Supply: DC 9 V: Dry Battery 9 V type (6F22/9 V), AC AdaptorCurrent Draw: 6 mA (DC 9 V)Accessories: Dry Battery 9 V type (6F22/9 V)Option: AC Adaptor (PSA-Series)
