The making of the BOSS SDE-3000EVH | 5150 Studios LA

collapse expand iconDescription

The BOSS SDE-3000 EVH Digital Delay effects pedal is a faithful reproduction of the late Eddie Van Halen’s unique dual Roland SDE-3000 setup. The BOSS SDE-3000 EVH is complete with iconic EVH stripes and loaded with his presets. Features include one input and three outputs for a unique three-amp setup and selectable Return Impedance for adequate matching.

It also comes with all the features of the SDE-3000D, including two legendary stereo SDE-3000s in a compact floor pedal format. The BOSS SDE-3000 EVH also features widely adjustable delay time (0–3,000ms), characteristic modulation, and phase switches for Delay and Delay feedback sound. A stereo in/out configuration is also possible, plus TRS MIDI in/out. Additional features include switchable internal series, and parallel chains and 100 memories to save and quickly recall, plus a unique EVH button to recall the EVH memories. The CTL1 footswitch works as Tap Tempo, Hold, Momentary and more. You can also connect up to four footswitches, two Expression pedals or GA-FC foot controller (sold separately).

The SDE-3000 EVH digital delay includes an AC adapter (PSB-1U + AC Cord Set), startup guide, leaflet on how to use the unit safely and four rubber feet.

    I wonder if Eddie is spinning in his grave over things Fender is putting his name on that he would never have approved. Like the new line of "Frankenstein" guitars

  • If it's got Eddies name on it, it's gonna be stellar

    Ultimately, I returned this and kept the UA Del-Verb. This was WAY more than I would ever require and to tap its full potential, I have neither the time for deep diving or the inclination. I wanted immediate gratification and found that in the other pedal. If I had endless funds, I would have kept it.

    Can the EVH 3000 be powered by a voodoo lab plus 2? Is the pedal 9 volt? Or do I have to use included power supply?

    The SDE can be powered by the Voodoo Lab Pedal. You can't use a battery.
