It offers wet and dry outputs for flexible signal routing and can run on a 9V battery for up to 15 hours. Made in Japan, it combines vintage warmth with modern versatility, making it a must-have for guitarists seeking authentic analog delay tones with professional-grade reliability. ## Description Ever since being discontinued way back in 1984, the BOSS DM-2 Delay pedal has remained highly sought after by players everywhere for its warm, “bucket brigade” analog delay tone. Now, the DM is back! With the Waza Craft DM-2W, the coveted stomp has been reborn with switchable sound modes and greater versatility for today’s music styles. Using 100-percent analog circuitry, the DM-2W’s Standard mode nails the lush sound and 20-300 ms delay range of the original DM-2. Flipping into Custom mode instantly changes the sound character to a cleaner analog tone with over twice the available delay time. Review: Great reissue of a classic analog delay with some modern improvements - The Waza Craft pedal line has been among the most successful initiatives from Roland/BOSS in the past 10 years. Whereas some of the Waza pedals include "boutique-style" modifications to existing products (like the DS-1 or SD-1), others represent pedals wholly resurrected from the dead. The DM-2 has not been produced by BOSS since the mid-1980's, though BOSS has included digitally modeled versions of the DM-2 in many other products, and there are many similar analog delays currently available. The original DM-2 was a "bucket brigade" delay (BBD) that used analog capacitance chips to delay and repeat the guitar signal. Compared to modern/digital delays, the DM-2 warm, lo-fi, and almost crunchy character to its decaying repeats. In a technical sense, this was a drawback and a limitation on what the circuitry available in the 1970's was capable of doing. However, like so many things related to the guitar, this vintage "character" became viewed as musical and desirable. Today, there are many options for analog and digital delays, but the DM-2's character holds a special place in the heart of many players, even if the only option for playing an actual DM-2 was to buy a 30+ year old piece of gear. That was...until the release of the Waza Craft DM-2W. The DM-2W is made in Japan and promises a few modern improvements. For example, the original chip set could only delay up to 300 milliseconds. To be honest, I ignored a lot of vintage delays for this reason alone. Most of my delay settings and dotted-eighth note patterns used a delay time between 350-400ms, so why would I look at an analog delay incapable of those times. Well, the DM-2 excels at shorter, slapback delays and a lot of other styles I am increasingly appreciating. Plus, the DM-2W Waza adds a "Custom" mode, which more than doubles the delay time to 800ms. That Custom mode also features a delay tone that BOSS describes as "cleaner" and slightly brighter. If I'm being honest, I like the sound of the Standard/Vintage delay better. However, the option to have a the additional delay time and to make it jump out more in a mix significantly adds to the versatility of the DM-2W. Some of the mods on the Waza pedals offer only subtle or incremental improvements on the original that are barely noticeable. I was impressed how much this additional functionality added in the DM-2W. A couple quick notes/disclaimers. First, the time knob on a DM-2 works backwards from most delay pedals. Instead of increasing the delay time, you turn the Repeat Rate knob clockwise to DECREASE the delay time. It's an easy adjustment to make, but probably confuses a new user or too. The other two knobs control the mix or repeat volume (ECHO) and the feedback or number of repeats (INTENSITY). Delay pedals are inherently simple effects, but I find the DM-2W to be very inspiring to play in different styles. It's also cool that it can be powered on 9V battery for up to 15 hours (according to BOSS anyway) - that's something you can't with a digital delay, and makes it great for grab-and-go play. This is a great reissue of a classic pedal, and given BOSS' durability track record, it should offer decades of enjoyment. Review: The best - I’ve owned a couple of these over the years, reluctantly offloading them and then re-buying later after trying other options. Boss is always the best in terms of reliability, size, and sound IMHO. This one has a modern, cleaner setting as well as the original shorter delay setting, so it does more than a lot of bucket brigades in terms of versatility. It’s not a digital emulation but an actual analog circuit, which may sound snobby but does matter in this instance. Really it’s like two delay pedals, and the Waza Craft line never disappoints. The dry output also allows for more creative options, like splitting the signal chain into two paths (one with the delay which can feed other effects too, and another that is clean split across two amps or DAW inputs, for example). Overall, an excellent pedal at a good price. ## Features - Reissue All-analog Delay Pedal with Bucket Brigade Circuitry and Two Operation Modes - Expression Pedal Delay Time Control - Wet and Dry Outputs - Premium all-analog circuit with BBD (bucket brigade) delay line ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07N6PBBQR | | Batteries | 1 9V batteries required.

It does an excellent slapback. **Q: Does this pedal have "tap tempo"? It sounds like it does from the description but, it isn't 100% clear.** A: no its a recreation of the DM2 from the 70s before tap tempto was around...you can put a volume pedal in the side and control time length...but not tap **Q: Made in japan ?** A: Yes Waza craft pedals are made in Japan **Q: did it come with a metal switch/button screw ?** A: Yes mine did and it said Made In Japan instead of Inspected In Japan ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reissue of a classic analog delay with some modern improvements *by S***1 on December 17, 2024* The Waza Craft pedal line has been among the most successful initiatives from Roland/BOSS in the past 10 years.
