BOSS BP-1W Booster/Preamp Pedal

The BOSS BP-1W: Authentic Vintage Tones and Versatile Boost in One Powerful Pedal

Classic Preamp Sounds with Modern Versatility

The BOSS BP-1W brings legendary vintage preamp tones to your pedalboard with the reliability and innovation BOSS is known for. Featuring authentic recreations of the Roland RE-201 and BOSS CE-1 preamp circuits, along with a natural-sounding clean boost, the BP-1W offers a world of sonic texture in one compact pedal. Designed with an all-analog signal path and Waza Craft precision, this pedal provides studio-quality tones ideal for a wide range of playing styles.

Multiple Mode Options for Creative Flexibility

Whether you're chasing warm, fat tones or aggressive drive, the BP-1W has you covered. The Mode switch allows you to select between "RE" for the lush distortion of the RE-201 preamp, "NAT" for a wide-range natural boost, and "CE" for the biting edge of the CE-1 preamp. Each mode offers distinct character, letting you tailor your sound for lead boosts, rich rhythm textures, or full-spectrum tone shaping.

Tailor Your Tone with Buffer Settings

The BP-1W features a [BUFFER] switch that allows you to choose between Standard (STD) and Vintage (VTG) buffer types. The STD setting provides a pure, uncolored buffer, while the VTG setting imparts the sweet, musical character of a vintage preamp. These options make it easy to match the pedal to different guitars and rigs, ensuring that you maintain tone integrity whether you're pushing long cable runs or seeking vintage coloration.

Intuitive Controls for Effortless Operation

Simplicity meets versatility with the BP-1W’s streamlined control layout. The [GAIN] knob adjusts the intensity of distortion, while the [LEVEL] knob sets the output volume. The [MODE] and [BUFFER] switches offer quick access to different tonal flavors and input characteristics. With its pedal switch and clear CHECK indicator light, the BP-1W ensures smooth transitions and easy monitoring on any stage.

Rugged Design with Flexible Power Options

Built to BOSS’s legendary standards, the BP-1W is designed for years of reliable use, whether in the studio or on tour. It runs on a single 9V battery or an optional PSA-series AC adapter, providing flexibility for any performance situation. With its buffered bypass and high-quality components, the BP-1W preserves your signal path and stands up to the demands of professional use.
