Analog Vibrato

The Boss VB-2 is an analog vibrato pedal first released in 1982, renowned for its lush, pitch-modulating vibrato effect. It features Rate, Depth, and Rise Time controls, allowing precise shaping of the vibrato speed, intensity, and onset. The VB-2 offers Latch and Unlatch modes for momentary or continuous operation, making it versatile for both subtle and dramatic modulation. Its all-analog circuitry delivers a warm, organic sound, and it has become highly sought after for its unique character and expressive capabilities.
