An Effects Power User Dives Deep with Advanced BOSS Gear

BOSS ES-8 effects switcher

Sef, the lead guitarist for the Canadian alternative band Your Favorite Enemies, is a pedal fanatic. His board is loaded with a massive selection of stompboxes, which he blends together in highly creative ways to craft his diverse guitar textures. Sef recently replaced a simpler effects switcher with the BOSS ES-8, and he’s blown away by all the amazing things he can do with it. In a four-part video series, the guitarist takes an in-depth walkthrough of how he uses the ES-8, complete with step-by-step parameter settings and real-world playing examples. Along the way, he also talks about the advanced capabilities of another new fave, the BOSS DD-500 Digital Delay.

Read on to check out the video series and learn about all the cool things you can do with this advanced BOSS gear.
