But they’re\nalso loved for their variable analog preamp circuitry, which instantly infuses\nany guitar tone with character, body, and richness. With the Boss BP-1W, you\ncan now access these two classic preamp tones in a premium Waza Craft pedal,\nalong with a natural, clear voice that functions as a standard clean boost.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMagical Enhancement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFor generations, savvy guitarists have relied on key pieces of analog gear to\nenhance their core tone. Though discontinued over 30 years ago, the CE-1 and\nRE-201 remain widely used by many players for their characterful preamps as\nmuch as their famous analog effect sounds. These ‘secret weapons’ make the\nsound richer, fuller, and more satisfying to play, even when their effect\nprocessing is bypassed. The BP-1W lets you integrate the magical tone-shaping\nproperties of these legends into your own rig - without having to seek out rare\nand expensive vintage originals.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eVersatile Analog Sound Shaping\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe BP-1W is one of the most flexible boost pedals available, offering three\nunique operation modes in a single compact stomp. Along with CE and RE vintage\nmodes, a third mode provides a pristine clean boost when you want to pump the\nvolume without added color. The Gain knob allows you to dial in a range of saturation\nand drive tones unique to each mode, while the Level knob lets you balance the\neffect or bypass sound or push downstream pedal and amp inputs for further\ntonal enhancement.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChoose Your Tone Color\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe CE mode reproduces the CE-1 preamp tone, known for its bright, bell-like\ncharacter and tight low-end response. Tweak the Gain knob to conjure an array\nof pleasing tones, from mild to aggressive. The RE mode reproduces the unique\ncolor and response of the RE-201 preamp circuitry. It adds fatness and warmth\neven at the lowest Gain settings, with increasing saturation as the knob is\nturned up. You can achieve powerful driven sounds with rich analog compression\ncharacteristics, providing foundational vintage color to feed pedals and amps. The\nNAT mode produces a punchy, natural voice with minimal coloration. The modern\nanalog Waza Craft circuitry provides a wide boost range, delivering top\nperformance for any standard clean boost application.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTwo Premium Buffers\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe BP-1W features high-quality buffer circuitry with two selectable types.\nSlide the rear panel switch to choose between the pure signal of a standard\nbuffer or a vintage buffer with lower input impedance. The vintage type\nproduces a warmer tone and a smooth dynamic response, with maximum benefits\nachieved by connecting a guitar with passive pickups directly to the BP-1W’s\ninput. The standard buffer is always engaged for signal conditioning when the\npedal is bypassed, regardless of the buffer switch setting.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWaza Craft - The Art of Superior Tone\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSince the beginning, the engineers at Boss have been committed to achieving the\nfinest guitar tones using any technology necessary, from old-school analog\ncircuits to high-tech DSP. This enthusiastic spirit continues with the Waza\nCraft series, bringing you exceptional tone and touch response through\ncarefully selected analog components, refined circuitry, and meticulous attention\nto detail. In Japan, ‘Waza’ is the term for art and technique, and these\nspecial edition pedals proudly carry the Waza symbol to represent the pinnacle\nof Boss design and craftsmanship.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roland Corporation U.S.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53951576408358,"sku":"BOSSBP-1W_MINT","price":167.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/9803\/0886\/files\/3574403.jpg?v=1790348887","url":"https:\/\/www.focusproaudio.com\/products\/boss-bossbp-1w-mint-pedals-effects-pedalboards-distortion-overdrive-boost-fuzz-pedals","provider":"Focus Pro Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
