Boss Blues Driver BD-2 - Important Notes; Additional Precautions; Changing Battery

Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of BOSS BD-2 Blues Driver.
To ensure proper operation, and years of trouble-free service, please take the time to read
through this Owner's Manual before starting out.
FEATURES
The BD-2 is the overdrive that has been specifically designed for crunch distortion.
It can faithfully express the tone change caused by moving the knobs on the guitar.
It can create distortion that can faithfully reproduce the picking nuance of the player.
It can create wide varieties of distortions from crunch to hard distortion, by adjusting the
Gain Knob.
Even if the Gain Knob is raised, a clean and natural sound can be produced by turning the
volume of the guitar.
A natural-sounding overdrive continues to be produced without any loss in its quality,
even if you turn down the volume on your guitar.
