Product Overview
The collaborative effort of EVH and BOSS introduces the SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay, an authentic replication of Eddie Van Halen's renowned stereo delays that shaped his iconic live guitar sound. This pedal combines two fully equipped SDE-3000 units in a compact format, mirroring the capabilities of the vintage Roland SDE-3000 rackmount delay. It offers extensive connectivity options to create a wet/dry/wet rig similar to Eddie's setup. Additionally, the pedal includes eight EVH-curated presets featuring the exact settings from Eddie's personal delay units, enabling you to achieve his expansive spatial delay tone in your own rig.
