NAMM 2016: Boss Waza Craft VB-2W Vibrato

The VB-2W is the latest addition to the highly regarded Boss Wasa Craft series. Following suit with the rest of the Wasa Craft pedals, the VB-2W is an adapted incarnation of the original Boss VN-2 which circulated between 1982 and 1986 and is now a rare and highly sort after pedal.

Pedalsandeffects.com owner; Juan Alderete went as far as to sight the pedal as one of his all time favourite effects, and despite the original pedal's high resale value, went as far as to buy a 2nd VB-2 should his ever break.

The VB-2W offers players the ability to achieve consistent and controlled vibrato effects without the need to bend a string and in more extreme settings offers otherworldly warble that has been embraced by ambient and prog musicians everywhere.

The VB-2W boasts and enhanced custom mode that offers more extreme settings to suit the needs of a modern player along with a jack input for expressive playing allowing the effect depth to be controlled by an exterior expression pedal.
