Description
While the vintage Boss CE-1 and RE-201 are renowned for their gorgeous modulation effects, they're also loved for their incredible analog preamp circuitry. Now, Boss packs those same rich, analog tones into the Waza Craft BP-1W Booster Preamp. If you've been searching for a top-notch preamp pedal with a classic, saturated character and a clean boost on board, you can't beat the BP-1W.
Once you power on the BP-1W, you'll have access to three unique voices: CE, RE, and NAT. With CE selected, this pedal emulates the CE-1's bright, chiming highs and tight low-end response. In RE mode, the BP-1W delivers the fatness and warmth of the RE-201, even at lower gain settings. Flip the switch to NAT, and this pedal will dish out a punchy, transparent tone that works great as a clean boost.
Aside from the mode switch, the BP-1W features Gain and Level knobs that help balance and fine-tune your preamp sound. The Gain control adds saturation and richness as it's increased, giving each voice a distinctive sound. The Level knob has plenty of volume on tap, allowing users to push other pedals and amps into hot, driven territories.
The Waza Craft BP-1W also boasts premium buffer circuitry with two different voices. Choose STD for a pure, clean sound or VTG for a warmer, vintage-inspired tone with a smooth dynamic response.
A stellar addition to the esteemed Boss Waza Craft line, the BP-1W Booster Preamp is excellent for guitarists seeking a killer analog preamp and boost pedal with an incredible old-school sound.
