Oneder Effects HW-2 Distortion Boost FX Pedal

The HW-2 from Oneder Effects is the signature dual-channel distortion and boost unit created by Oneder Effects in collaboration with Bo Lueders of Harms Way.  Built for players who need definition at high volume and aggression without mud, it brings studio precision and live ready brutality into one tight olive drab finish enclosure.

On the left side, you get a thick, high gain distortion circuit voiced like a greatest hits of the heaviest amps in metal, hardcore and punk. Four bands of EQ give you deep control over your sound, letting you sculpt everything from biting mid-forward tones to gut punching lows.

The right side is where things get ever better. It’s a boost inspired by the EQ profile of the iconic HM-2, minus the distortion that can sometimes muddy up your gain structure. The SAW knob blends EQ and gain into anything from a clean signal tightener to a full noise washed grind that slams into your amp with chainsaw energy.

Each side runs independently, so you can stack them or split them. Push your own distortion harder, slam the front of your amp or just run HW-2 on its own through a clean channel and let it handle the heavy lifting.

HW-2 is brutal, versatile and stage proven by Bo himself, who uses it straight into the dirty channel. Gain into gain into gain. No frills. No mercy.

Oneder make a series of great signature FX pedals, and the HW-2 covers Bo’s unique guitar sound from the studio and live on stage.
