Description

The Analog Delay Hand-Made in Japan by A.S.W

The A.S.W Analog Delay is an extremely rare boutique delay pedal, likely originating from a small Japanese builder with very limited production. It is believed to use a fully analog circuit, giving it the warm, slightly degraded repeats typical of vintage delay units. Like other analog delays, its sound would naturally darken and soften with each repeat, creating a smooth, atmospheric texture rather than pristine echoes. The pedal appears to be designed for musical, ambient applications, complementing clean and driven tones without overpowering the original signal. Due to its scarcity and lack of official documentation, it is considered a “mystery” piece of gear, mostly known through artist usage rather than commercial availability. Its character likely aligns with classic Japanese analog delay design philosophies simple, expressive, and tone-focused.

Yuxuki Waga starts to play with the pedal at 7:21, then we get a better close up shot of the pedal. I couldn't get a good screenshot of the pedal, so I took one from around 7:34.
