A new Wazacraft pedal is on the way

[chromandre]

but yes I alo agree, the fuzz included on the more recent multi effects arent exactly the same as FZ-5 but they are surprisingly good sounding , I would definitely use it its just I have a handful of analog transistor fuzz pedals I like to use anyways

[sclitheroe]

oh yea an analog version of the FZ-5 idea though

Maybe. But this, like the univibe rumor, the collaboration rumor, don't fit with what the Waza lineup is about, in my opinion, which is re-releasing premium versions of pedals that people already love, with features that they in particular will appreciate. I think this pedal will be far more likely to be a FZ-2 than a FZ-5 just for this reason, because the FZ-2 has a reputation. The FZ-3 was pretty decent, but also pretty generic - not sure they'd be able to muster the hype and sales volumes for a Waza FZ-3.

Does anyone know when they are actually announcing the pedal?

Give the enormous upsurge in used prices/demand/popularity of the FZ-2, and the multiple clones plus the Behringer copy, I'd be very surprised it if were anything other than a FZ2w. I'd guess a few more tricks might be up the sleeve though for a Waza special mode, I'd go for a "Vintage" Superfuzz mode

[fuzzbuzzfuzz]

Other outside bets...hmm well it could be a Univibe as that is "unlike anything we've ever done before" or far out perhaps a vintage tonebender type effort?

Fuzz would make sense in a lot of ways. As several have mentioned, the FZ-2 is a popular pedal - even though I never owned one, nor any other fuzz, apart from an old John Hornby Skewes (the original JHS) back when I was a teenager. Thing is, they have delay, modulation and overdrive in the range already, so a fuzz would then (more or less) give you a set of Waza pedals for all seasons, heck, there's even a Waza Tuner. Sure, we still want flanger and phaser, so maybe they'll get to those next time around. Or a Waza DD-something.

I still want a BF-2w, though. Oh, and a PH-1rw

Apparently it’s been leaked and it’s an FZ-2W. My source can’t be verified so I wouldn’t put money on it.

I've heard that fz2 rumor was based on a photoshop, the official BOSS comment is that it's “like nothing we've ever created before” so it might not even be a reissue at all.

Got briefly excited this morning when I got an e-mail from Boss announcing new products.

Turned out to be a new Nextone Special amplifier and some new cables.

No sign of the mystery Waza Craft pedal yet...

Interesting looking amp. But at the same time it has a very odd look with the 27 knobs. Some of my synthesizers have less knobs on the panel.

[BearBoy]

Ha, yeah, I was thinking that Pepe
