The classic stompbox has now been brought back to life 30 years later in a special Waza Craft edition – the HM-2W — thanks to Boss. The Boss HM-2W Heavy Metal retains the original's scorching all-analogue voice while receiving some modern adjustments for improved performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HM-2W's Custom mode provides a comparable auditory experience to the Standard mode, but with somewhat more of everything. The drive stage adds more gain and more of the fundamental guitar sound for more attack and sharpness. Furthermore, the low and high-mid qualities have been modified to create greater fullness and definition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe original Boss HM-2 was one of the first \"amp-in-a-box\" pedals released, meant to imitate the sound of early '80s British amp stacks pushed to their extremes. Surprisingly, the HM-2's popularity peaked near the end of its manufacture cycle, when legendary Swedish death metal bands commonly used the device to create the mid-focused and saturated guitar tones that aggressively cut through in their recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bulleted-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaza Craft Edition — Supercharged version of the HM-2, made in Japan for the ultimate Boss tone experience.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic HM-2 Aesthetic — Iconic orange-on-black livery evokes plenty of high-octane nostalgia!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard Mode — Delivers the original HM-2 sound with lower noise and maximized level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom Mode — Offers a more aggressive tone variation with special Waza Craft tuning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium Buffer — Ensures a clean and clear guitar signal when the unit is bypassed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRenowned Boss Build Quality — Boss pedals have a reputation for being built like tanks, and the HM-2W is no exception!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-Year Warranty — As standard, all Boss compacts receive a five-year manufacturer warranty.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Boss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55768360714620,"sku":"Boss HM-2W NN","price":169.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0441\/6457\/9484\/products\/hm-2w_top_gal.jpg?v=1656587199","url":"https:\/\/www.fairdealmusic.co.uk\/products\/boss-hm-2w-heavy-metal-waza-craft-distortion-pedal-nearly-new","provider":"Fair Deal Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
