Overview Ahead of its time when it debuted in 1982, the VB-2 Vibrato has been rediscovered by modern players looking to create unique guitar textures with stompbox effects. Thanks to its expressive, one-of-a-kind sound, this rare pedal has gone on to become one of the most valuable BOSS effects in the vintage market. Now, the progressive spirit of the VB-2 has been reborn as the Waza Craft VB-2W. Using all-analog circuitry, the VB-2W authentically reproduces the true pitch-shifted vibrato of the original pedal, and also adds an innovative new vibrato mode and real-time control function for enhanced expression. Premium edition Waza Craft pedal delivers the ultimate BOSS tone experience Custom mode features a totally new vibrato sound with unique filter wave Standard mode provides a true reproduction of the vintage VB-2 Vibrato sound All-analog circuit with BBD (bucket brigade) vibrato line Control the effect depth in real time with an optional expression pedal Rise Time knob to control the initial onset of the vibrato effect Unlatch mode activates the effect only while pressing the pedal, ideal for adding vibrato to specific notes and chords Bypass mode takes the BBD out of the signal path to eliminate latency when the effect is off BOSS five-year warranty
