Elevate Your Sound with Waza Craft

BOSS Waza Craft: Boutique Tone with Legendary Pedigree

BOSS has long been a name synonymous with durability, dependability, and iconic tone in the guitar world. With the Waza Craft series, BOSS takes its most beloved stompboxes and reimagines them with premium components, refined circuits, and all-analog signal paths—offering the ultimate versions of their classic designs. “Waza” is the Japanese word for “art and technique,” and each Waza Craft pedal reflects the culmination of decades of pedal-building expertise combined with meticulous craftsmanship from BOSS’s engineers in Japan. Whether you're a vintage tone purist or a modern player craving exceptional clarity and response, the Waza line delivers next-level sound and feel.

BOSS CE-2W Waza Craft Chorus
The CE-2W combines the lush, bucket-brigade analog chorus of the legendary CE-2 with the stereo swirl of the CE-1, BOSS’s first-ever pedal. You get three selectable modes: CE-2 standard, CE-1 Chorus, and CE-1 Vibrato—all housed in one rugged stompbox. The CE-2W is the definitive analog chorus experience, with rich dimensionality and warmth that’s perfect for everything from clean shimmer to modulated grit.

Boss BP-1W Waza Craft Booster/Preamp
The BP-1W is a versatile tone-sculpting tool that functions as both a booster and a high-headroom preamp. Choose between Vintage, Clean, and Mid Boost modes to tailor your gain structure, enhance your solos, or push your amp into dynamic overdrive. It shines on pedalboards for both shaping core tone and adding that special sparkle or punch on demand.

Boss DS-1W Waza Craft Distortion
The DS-1W reimagines the iconic orange box with enhanced range, clarity, and power. In Standard mode, it captures the classic DS-1 bite with upgraded fidelity. Flip to Custom mode and you’re met with a fatter, fuller distortion ideal for solos and big chords. Whether you're chasing ‘80s rock tones or a more modern crunch, this pedal keeps your tone articulate and aggressive.

Boss SD-1W Waza Craft Super Overdrive
This refined take on the legendary SD-1 offers added depth and gain without sacrificing its signature mid-hump clarity. The SD-1W features Standard and Custom modes: one retaining the original overdrive sound beloved for stacking, and the other offering a smoother, more transparent voicing. It’s the perfect drive to complement any amp or pedalboard setup.

BOSS TU-3W Waza Craft Tuner
More than just a tuner, the TU-3W delivers true bypass or buffered operation with ultra-high tuning accuracy. It retains the bulletproof build and reliable display of the original TU-3 while offering enhanced signal integrity. For tone purists who want flawless tuning without any signal compromise, this is the ultimate stage-ready tuning solution.

BOSS BD-2W Waza Craft Blues Driver
The BD-2W elevates the touch-sensitive dynamics and amp-like feel of the original BD-2. Standard mode gives you the transparent overdrive blues players love, while Custom mode fattens up the low end and sweetens the top for a more modern edge. It’s incredibly responsive to picking nuances, making it a favorite for expressive players.

BOSS DM-2W Waza Craft Analog Delay
A true revival of the revered DM-2, the DM-2W offers authentic bucket-brigade delay with the added flexibility of a Custom mode that doubles the delay time and adds more clarity. With rich repeats and vintage modulation, this pedal is a go-to for ambient, rockabilly, and classic analog delay fans alike.

Boss FZ-1W Waza Craft Fuzz
The FZ-1W is an original Waza design inspired by the raw energy of early fuzz circuits. It's not a clone—it's a reinvention. With two modes (Vintage and Modern), it delivers everything from spitty, gated fuzz to smoother, more defined saturation. Highly touch-responsive and surprisingly versatile, it's a fresh take on a beloved classic effect.

BOSS HM-2W Waza Craft Heavy Metal
The “chainsaw” tone is back and badder than ever. The HM-2W resurrects the cult-favorite heavy metal distortion pedal with its unmistakable mid-scooped growl. Standard mode keeps things true to the original, while Custom mode tightens the low end and adds gain, giving metal players even more sonic destruction at their feet.

BOSS MT-2W Waza Craft Metal Zone
The most misunderstood distortion pedal gets a complete Waza makeover. The MT-2W tames the original’s scooped chaos into something more nuanced and usable across styles. You still get the aggressive EQ shaping, but Custom mode adds more natural mids and a smoother gain structure, making it great for lead tones and heavy rhythms alike.

BOSS VB-2W Waza Craft Vibrato
The VB-2W revives one of BOSS’s most sought-after and rarest modulation pedals. It provides true pitch-shifting vibrato with standard and custom voicings, along with a unique latch mode for momentary vibrato bursts. Its lush detune effect is a secret weapon for alt-rock textures, synth-like pads, and otherworldly modulation.
