Boss can always be relied on to produce (at least) competent effects at a reasonable price. The SD-1 is just such a pedal, with the added bonus of being extremely simple to use, as it only has three knobs (volume, tone and drive).

I'd recommend it to effects-novices who are buying their first few pedals, and aren't particularly clued-up on good brands or models. The SD-1 isn't a pedal you'll hang on to forever but it's a good start.
