The Boss EH-2 is a foot pedal designed for electric guitar to 'enhance' your tone. It gives you a brighter tone and cuts through a mix or a room quite well. The pedal has a 1/4 inch input and output and like all Boss pedals can be powered by either a nine volt battery or power supply. It isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a stomp box.
UTILIZATION
The make up of the Boss EH-2 is quite simple to follow as it only has three parameters - it has knobs mix, frequency, and sensitivity - with an LED light to show the rate of sensitivity. That is all of the parameters that this has to offer although this doesn't mean that you can't get a good amount of varying tones between the parameters given. I think that just about anybody could figure out how to use this pretty quickly without a manual and regardless of experience...
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality of the Boss EH-2 is pretty good overall even if you only use it subtly. It is similar to other enhancers, exciters, and tone boosters, but it has its own sound and its own capabilities. I use the pedal with a Fender Strat and a '76 Fender Twin Reverb or '65 Deluxe Reverb amp most of the time for recording and live shows, so I think I've definitely been getting an accurate read on what this pedal actually sounds like and I definitely like what I'm hearing. While it isn't a pedal that I tend to use all that often, I like having it around because you never know when a unique enhancer like this will come in handy...
OVERALL OPINION
The Boss EH-2 is an older pedal in the Boss collection and is no longer made, but if you are interested in getting one you should be able to find a used one for a reasonable price. While I do think that there are some better options if you are just looking for a tone booster, this will definitely have the same effects and does have a very nice sound. I'm a big fan of the older Boss pedals as I not only think that they are great collector's items but generally enjoy the sounds they have to offer. All in all, the Boss EH-2 is definitely worth a look if you want a unique enhancer/exciter.
