Overview

 

The BOSS PW-2 Power Driver is a now-discontinued, Japan-made overdrive/distortion pedal that was part of BOSS’s “Power Series” in the mid-1990s. Designed for guitarists who wanted thick, low-end-heavy distortion tones, the PW-2 focused on delivering fat, muscular sounds perfect for grunge, alternative rock, and heavy rhythm playing. Though it was overshadowed by more famous BOSS pedals like the DS-1 and MT-2, it has since gained cult status among collectors and tone enthusiasts.

Product Description

 

The PW-2 Power Driver delivers a thick, saturated distortion tone with enhanced low and midrange presence, setting it apart from typical BOSS distortion pedals of its era. It features a unique tone-shaping section with FAT and MUSCLE knobs, letting players sculpt the low and mid frequencies to fit heavy, chunky riffing styles. This makes it ideal for genres that demand a warm, dense tone without losing note clarity.

Housed in BOSS’s iconic compact metal chassis, the PW-2 is built for durability and performance, offering easy onstage use with its large footswitch and intuitive control layout.

Key Features

 

  • Bold, powerful distortion with strong low and midrange focus

  • Drive, Level, Muscle, and Fat controls for extensive tone shaping

  • Buffered bypass with BOSS reliability

  • Solid build quality with a classic stompbox form factor

  • Now discontinued — rare and sought after by collectors

 

Best For

 

  • Grunge and alternative rock tones

  • Players who want more body and warmth in their distortion

  • Rhythm guitarists who prefer a full, thick sound

  • Collectors looking for vintage BOSS pedals
