Product highlights

BOSS HM-2W Waza Craft Heavy Metal Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal with Two Modes (Orange and Black)

The BOSS HM-2W Waza Craft Heavy Metal Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal in Black and Orange is a true legend in the history of distortion pedals. Its signature chainsaw tone with all knobs maxed is the defining voice of Swedish death metal, and the slightly milder sides of its personality can be heard on tracks from mainstream to shoegaze. The HM-2W delivers the authentic analog sound of the original in all its glory, coupled with lots of modern refinements for enhanced performance.

Standard Mode

When the HM-2W is in Standard mode, the tone and response of the original HM-2 pedal is reproduced with 100-percent authenticity. Some modern improvements are added which does not affect the sound, including reducing the noise floor and expanding the maximum level by 3 dB. With the premium Waza Craft buffer on board, the sound is improved when the pedal is bypassed. Cranking every knob all the way up is the sound of Swedish death metal, and you can conjure a wide range of tones for other styles with the sensitive distortion and color controls.

Get Even More Aggressive with Custom Mode

The HM-2W’s Custom mode offers a similar sound character to Standard mode, but with just a little more of everything. The drive stage has a bit more gain and includes more of the fundamental guitar sound for extra attack and sharpness. In addition, the low and high-mid characteristics have been tweaked to provide increased fullness and definition.

Orange and Black is Back

It boasts a distinctive orange and black appearance, right down to the size and position of lettering on the panel. This pedal features a mode switch for extended range, and it’s been moved to the top on the HM-2W to preserve the authentic control layout of the HM-2.
