acoustic stomp box, stompbox, timber Wazinator KSB-219 is the ultimate acoustic stompbox. Ideal for solo
guitarists, sitting or standing and percussionists wanting a thumping bass bottom end.

With over 180 units sold worldwide
the Wazinator is rapidly gaining
acceptance amongst artists
as a dependable, round, bass rich
sounding stomp box, on any stage
timber or concrete.

The Wazinator KSB-219 is
extremely resistant to feedback.

Acoustically designed to fill in the
audio spectrum beneath an
acoustic guitar so the KSB-219
doesn't intrude into the sound of
your guitar. Whether your finger
pick'n or strumming the Wazinator
supports your playing to make you
sound fuller.

The foot platform is only 28mm
from the floor allowing guitarist,
drummers and percussionists to
comfortably use the Wazinator
while standing or sitting.

Designed to be plugged into a bass amp or PA, the KSB-219 has an amazing
spectrum of usable sound. With a little EQ tweaking (and you won't be short on bass!)
the sound can be sculptured to your taste.

The patent pending pickup design (Aust, USA, Europe) is a new innovation from
Bentmettle Music Australia. It is both pump action and acoustic. The pump action
insures a full bottom end with little foot pressure and the acoustic pickup allows the
warm tonal character of the instrument to show up in the overall sound of the
performer.

The Wazinator KSB-219 is equipped with a built in safely valve which kicks in when
you kick hard. This safely feature acts like a compressor and is designed to attenuate
the output level but maintain the full character of the instrument. With such a powerful
bottom end this is important in protecting your speakers.

All this power and convenience in an instrument small enough to fit in your gig bag.
Also the electronics are all passive meaning there is no batteries to worry about when
your doing your show.

What is an acoustic stompbox?
It's traditionally a wooden box with a
vocal microphone placed inside.
The microphone is wrapped in cloth
and plugged into a PA or bass amp.
The box is placed under foot and
used as a thud or bass pulse by
stomping on the timber. Used mainly
by solo guitarists this is a great way
to add a driving percussive element
to your music.

Before the advent of the stompbox
performers playing on a timber
stage found that by stamping the
floor or the base of a microphone
stand they could make a thudding
sound that came through the PA.

A microphone in a box can sound
very good, but is prone to problems
of inconsistent sound, feedback and
lack of real bottom end. Enter the
Wazinator KSB-219.
