New old pedal day! Found a Boss DD3 made in Japan version from 1990 in a local used gear shop. I swear it looks barely played for something 30+ years old. Was excited to hook it up and play it side by side against a newer 2008 Taiwan version I have.
Wow it was very different, warmer, more musical, more analog sounding. Had the mojo for sure in whatever chips they were using back then.
Now I’m eager to find a MIJ SD-1 to compare against my Waza SD-1. But I don’t know if I want to deal with those older ACA powered pedals. This DD3 was a PSA thankfully. I know there’s ways around it but not sure it’s worth the hassle. And the Waza SD-1 is already MIJ
