The Orange Distortion is a kit that allows you to build a clone of the Boss DS-1 pedal. The DS-1 currently in production is not the same as the original DS-1 from the 80’s, so if you want the original sound, building a clone is the way to go. The kit includes all the necessary parts to build the pedal to original DS-1 specs, as well as extra components for popular DS-1 modifications. It also includes some new mods that can only be done when building a pedal from scratch. The kit comes with extra parts for various mods such as increased gain, reduced shrill highs, and different clipping options. The kit also features the replacement of aluminum electrolytic capacitors with superior metal film capacitors in the signal path. Additionally, the kit includes true mechanical bypass for no tone loss when the pedal is not in use.
