BOSS SDE-3000D Dual Digital Delay
BOSS and EVH Unite to Bring You the Legendary Eddie Van Halen Dual Delay Sound
BOSS and EVH have teamed up to create the SDE-3000EVH Dual Digital Delay – an authentic recreation of the stereo delays that powered Eddie Van Halen’s iconic three-cabinet live stage guitar sound.
Inspired by the legendary Roland SDE-3000 rackmount delay unit, this powerful pedal combines two fully featured SDE-3000s in one floor-based design. With extensive connectivity, you can build a wet/dry/wet rig just like Eddie’s, allowing you to capture the expansive and immersive spatial delay tones that defined his legendary sound.
The unit includes eight presets curated by EVH, using the exact settings from Eddie’s personal delay setup. These presets are locked internally but allow for output level adjustment, giving you direct access to the precise tonal character used on stage by the master himself.
