The BOSS VB-2w WAZA Craft Vibrato Pedal is now in stock . You will find it with fast UK delivery online for £219 with P+P. This excellent piece of kit is manufactured by Boss This product comes with a great warranty.

Boss have been making an incredible pedals for a few decades now. The downside of having such a long career as a pedal builder is that some pedals have come and gone with no sign of coming back. Now with the Waza all analogue series of pedals a lot of your favourite Boss pedals now have a way of coming. That is exactly what has happened with the VB-2W Vibrato which was originally available back in the 1980's!

100% Analogue

The VB-2W is an interesting pedal as the original used a BBD-driven circuit which gave your whole sound this warm undertone that sounded amazing. Now pedals have moved on to the point where transparency is key. With this pedal BOSS wanted to give you both of those sounds so inside there are two modes, Standard and Custom.

In standard mode you are replicating that warm tone that the orignal was known for. Chuck it in to Custom mode and you open the pedal up with a low pass filter that moves with the effect and wider controls that let you dial in more extreme settings.

A Rare Replica

When we say the original VB-2 is rare we really do mean it. It was produced for just 4 years between 1982 and 1986 never to be seen again. This means that these are worth a tonne on the used market if you can ever find one that is. At the time of writing we can find ones going for upwards of £350! So when we say rare we really mean it.

Here's what BOSS say about the VB-2w

True Vibrato Expression, Reborn With Waza Innovation

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.

Waza Craft: The Art of Superior Tone

Since the beginning, the engineers at BOSS have been committed to achieving the finest guitar tones using any technology necessary, from old-school analog circuits to high-tech DSP. Continuing this enthusiastic spirit, we are pleased to introduce the Waza Craft series. In Japan, “Waza” is the term for art and technique, and these special edition pedals proudly carry the Waza symbol to represent the pinnacle of BOSS design and craftsmanship. With final sound approval carried out by BOSS in Japan, the Waza Craft series brings you exceptional tone and touch response through carefully selected analog components, refined circuitry, and meticulous attention to detail.

pedal

A pedal is a compact device that guitarists use to alter their instrument’s sound by shaping effects such as distortion, delay, reverb, and modulation. Typically housed in a rugged enclosure and controlled by footswitches, pedals are designed to be placed on the floor for hands-free operation during playing. They can be analogue or digital, true bypass or buffered, and come in countless varieties to suit different styles and preferences. Pedals are essential tools for creating signature tones and adding colour and texture to a guitarist’s sound.

Vibrato

Vibrato is a musical effect that adds depth and expression by subtly varying the pitch of a note. In guitar playing, this can be achieved by bending the string back and forth, using a vibrato bar (whammy bar), or with a dedicated vibrato pedal. Unlike tremolo, which modulates volume, vibrato modulates pitch—creating a shimmering, vocal-like quality that brings notes to life. Whether used gently for soulful bends or more dramatically for psychedelic textures, vibrato is a powerful tool that adds emotion, movement, and personality to your sound.

waza

Waza is a Japanese word meaning “art” or “technique,” and in the guitar world, it’s best known from Fender’s Waza Craft series. These are premium, handcrafted guitars and amps made in Japan, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation.

Waza models are praised for their exceptional tone, playability, and attention to detail, often featuring custom pickups, unique woods, and special finishes. The Waza name signals Fender’s highest level of quality and artistry, appealing to players who want professional-grade instruments with a refined touch.

About Boss

BOSS has its roots in MEG Electronics, a dedicated guitar effects R&D division founded within Roland Corporation in 1973. The company was recast with the now-famous BOSS name and logo and introduced to the public the following year. Along with products that carry the BOSS brand, the BOSS engineering team has been involved with developing key Roland-branded guitar products since the beginning.
