Boss HM-2W Waza Craft Heavy Metal Distortion Pedal ( HM2W )

The Japanese word "waza" means art and technique, an appropriate name for BOSS's premium line of redesigned guitar effects pedals. You see, the pedal collectors here at Sweetwater have seen more than enough special-edition stompboxes that are only a paint job away from the originals, which is why we're so blown away by what BOSS has done with the Waza Craft series. Even in their Standard modes, Waza Craft pedals sound like idealized versions of the originals, offering the same sonic character that made them iconic but with less noise and a more consistent tone. And when you A/B the Standard mode with the Custom, the contrast is nothing short of astonishing.

• Updated version of the BOSS HM-2 Heavy Metal distortion pedal
• Top-shelf all-analog circuitry elevates the classic high-gain tone of its predecessor
• Standard mode conjures the classic sound of Swedish death metal
• Custom mode yields a wider range, increased high gain, and thicker mids and lows
• Powerful onboard controls for Low and High Color Mixing shape your sound with impressive results at all settings
• Premium buffer for ultra-clean tone when bypassed
