Just like I remember

I had one of these in the early 2000's that I'm pretty sure my brother ran off with and destroyed. I'd forgotten all about it until recently while I was checking out the other Boss Waza pedals. Thanks to my sweetwater card, my nostalgia was sated just 2 days later. The pedal is exactly the same as I remember it. It still sounds great in front of, or in the effects loop of my old SVT1000. The blend knob is key as you can really get carried away with the distortion pretty quickly. The handy low eq will make sure you don't loose too much low end with all the distortion. Overall I'm just as happy with it as I was back in the day.

Beast Overdrive

Needed to overdrive the bass tone in lieu of 2nd guitarist. If you're on bass, get this pedal as it offers more than the Boss Overdrive pedal will. You can boost enough low end where other ODs can't. You really can't go wrong with Boss.

The King of Bass Overdrive and Distortion!

I've had this pedal for years and I use it to deliver bone-crushing distortion and I use it to add some subtle top-end clarity and articulation on a fretless jazz bass strung with flatwounds and it sounds great at either extreme and anywhere in between. This is a very well balanced pedal that puts out clear strong signals no matter how it's dialed in and the sheer power it delivers has to be heard to be believed!
I've used this pedal since the mid-nineties and nothing to my knowledge has come along yet that matches it.

Awesome Overdrive

Great Unit, after five years, the battery lock opens when i push hard the pedal.

Great Pedal

This pedal is great. Take the time to read the manual, try out the different suggested settings, and then tweak them to your needs. It can warm up your sound, make you fuzzy, grindy, or just straight distortion. It also sounds great on the low B.

What Do Our In-house Gear Experts Think?

Jared Kalish

When it comes to bass effects, sometimes less is more. In the case of a bass overdrive, some pedals tend to just give you one really bold setting which can be too much in some situations. The ODB-3 Bass Overdrive allows me to dial in just the right amount of fuzz or crunch to my sound to really cut through the mix on a grinding solo or go full out and create a HUGE overdrive sound to compliment those 7 string guitars rocking right beside me.
