{"product_id":"855776","title":"BOSS USED HM-2W [Heavy Metal] (BOSS) Distortion Pedal","description":"A used BOSS HM-2W [Heavy Metal] has arrived!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Produced from 1983 to 1991, the HM-2 Heavy Metal is a legendary pedal that has left its mark on the history of distortion pedals.\u003cbr\u003e The chainsaw tone, achieved by turning all the knobs to their maximum, has firmly established itself as a core sound in Swedish death metal music. It has also garnered high praise from shoegaze guitarists who create thick walls of sound with distortion.\u003cbr\u003e Driven by the passionate requests from these enthusiastic fans, BOSS decided to revive the HM-2 as part of the WAZA CRAFT series. With an analog distortion sound that perfectly replicates the original, and a custom mode with special tuning, the HM-2W was created.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Standard Mode: Faithful to the original HM-2 sound]\u003cbr\u003e Standard mode perfectly replicates the tone and response of the original HM-2. Setting all knobs to their maximum values ​​unleashes that iconic chainsaw tone. Meanwhile, modern technology has been used to improve the design in several places. Ground noise has been reduced, and the maximum LEVEL value has been increased by 3dB. Furthermore, a premium buffer has been incorporated to ensure a pure guitar sound when bypassed. The HM-2W thoroughly refines the basic performance of the pedal without sacrificing the original's unique characteristics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Custom Mode: For even more aggressive distortion]\u003cbr\u003e In Custom Mode, you can achieve a more aggressive distortion while maintaining the character of Standard Mode. Special tuning of the gain circuit provides even stronger distortion while also emphasizing the sharpness and attack of the sound. The low-frequency and mid-high-frequency characteristics have also been readjusted, resulting in a sound that combines high density and clarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【What is WAZA CRAFT?】\u003cbr\u003e Since its founding, BOSS engineers have poured all their technology, accumulated know-how, and passionate spirit for sound into pursuing the best guitar sound, from analog circuit design to cutting-edge digital DSP technology. The compact pedal \"WAZA CRAFT\" is the culmination of that craftsmanship. Equipped with analog circuits meticulously assembled by skilled engineers, with every single part carefully selected, the refined, made-in-Japan \"WAZA CRAFT\" provides guitarists with the finest sound and exceptional playability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The exterior shows signs of use, such as scratches and dirt, but it is in good working order.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【accessories】\u003cbr\u003e Main unit only\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Used item warranty]\u003cbr\u003e 3 months\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e■Main Specifications ●Rated Input Level: -20dBu\u003cbr\u003e ●Input impedance: 1MΩ\u003cbr\u003e ●Rated output level: -20dBu\u003cbr\u003e ●Output impedance: 1kΩ\u003cbr\u003e ●Recommended load impedance: 10kΩ or higher ●Bypass: Buffered ●Controls: Pedal switch, mode switch, DIST. knob, COLOR MIX H knob, COLOR MIX L knob, LEVEL knob ●Indicator: CHECK indicator (also serves as battery check)\u003cbr\u003e ●Connection terminals: INPUT terminal: standard type, OUTPUT terminal: standard type, DC IN terminal ●Power supply: Alkaline battery (9V type) or manganese battery (9V type), AC adapter (sold separately)\u003cbr\u003e ●Current consumption: 30mA\u003cbr\u003e ●Battery life during continuous use (varies depending on usage conditions): Alkaline batteries: approx. 24 hours, Manganese batteries: approx. 8 hours ●External dimensions: 73 (width) x 129 (depth) x 59 (height) mm\u003cbr\u003e ●Weight (including batteries): 440g\u003cbr\u003e ●Optional AC adapter: PSA-100\u003cbr\u003e * 0 dBu = 0.775 Vrms\u003cbr\u003e *Specifications and design are subject to change without notice for improvement purposes.","brand":"BOSS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43152088465521,"sku":"855776","price":115.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/USED__HM-2W__Heavy_Metal___BOSS__Distortion_Pedal_01.jpg?v=1776422536","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/products\/855776","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
