Boss VB-2W Waza Craft Vibrato Guitar Pedal

Ahead of its time when it debuted in 1982, the BOSS 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.

BOSS VB-2W Includes:

• Owner's Manual
• Leaflet ("USING THE UNIT SAFELY," "IMPORTANT NOTE," and "Information")
• Alkaline battery (9V, 6LR61)
