Jen Electronica Wah
Eto one of the best vintage wah(?). Good sweep lalo na pag clean tone. Kaso pag high gain di masyado maganda.

Dunlop GCB 95
Mura and maganda din naman pag minodify as compared to stock


I had a client before who had this wah pedal... among all his pedals it introduces a low 60 Hz hum... so what we did is we put a low-pass filter w/c value's enough to attenuate the noise.. result ► it's like using batteries... noise gone..

By the way, this pedal gives a real classic wah sound & it sounds great.. :-bd

ive come across some vintage(thomas, italian, jen wah, wah baby etc) and not so vintage wahs(rmc, wilson, area51),
i  love the quack and warm syrupy sweep they have.
at one point in my personal projects, ive even become anal with pot taper, inductor hfe+ohm and transistor's hfe.
 i thought theyre the last piece of the puzzle to be tweaked since the RC are easy to adjust anyway, and though i never paid much attention to the fishly caps, i preferred the polystyrenes because theyre quite accessible even if theyre easy to scorch if you dont heatsink. although there are oddball audio transformer that i tried that didnt fall within the standard 500hfe spec but produced good sounding wahs. i remember i used something like 1000hfe before.
but in the end i always go back to my plasticky, toyish, synthy sounding.. ibanez wh10.
it was my first ever effect way back when i was a kid. and i love it even before the whole fame it got because of fruciante. i dont get the big deal on jacking up the price when one can easily clone it.
nothing i encountered came close to it.... but maybe a moogerfooger with a cv pedal =]

i was using a Budda wah for a while and now i've got the Custom Audio Electronics wah with the 2 fasel inductor things. It sounds good to me.

selectable fasels or in parallel?
its selectable with a line boost. the previous wah that i had kinda like it was the 535Q which i really liked because the sweep was selectable so it wasn't a one trick pony and you could use different voicings depending on the pedals you were using with it. i had a couple fulltones, an area 51 and a few of the RMCs but i never really liked them as much. only thing that came close was the budda which is why i kept it. the CAE is nice and is pretty flexible.

would you know what are the two selectable fasels? how would you describe the difference between the two?

which ones they are (the make) i wouldn't know though i am sure you can look up the exact make of the components somewhere. but i do know that they change the voicing to go between emphasizing the mids/ lows a bit more to a more of a top end emphasis which is useful for me because of the fuzz and ODs that I use. in a band context, depending on the type of music or bass player im working with, going between the two tones is great because you cut through the mix more for parts of songs that need to be noticed.

if you can try one out, do it. its not a one-all-be-all wah but it works enough for me because it gets the job done.

"The Wylde Overdrive pedal is not true bypass...it is true hardwire bypass. That means the signal runs through a very high input impedance...so as to ease on signal loading and keep the tone intact. There will be some change in tone, but it is not easy to detect."


don't ask me to explain it..  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ano daw?  LOL!!!    :nosebleed:

Question:  I have a Zakk Wylde Wah and gusto ko alisin yung rubber feet nya para maisalpak ko sya sa pedalboard ko.  Thing is pag inalis yung rubber feet, sobra na yung screws nya, nakausli na pag ibinalik.  I also tried looking for shorter screws sa hardware stores na pwede ko magamit, wala naman ako makita.

Pano ko kaya maikakabit yung plate sa ilalim nang hindi lalawit yung screws?

Thanks!!!   :-o

oh, i meant pano kaya sya naikabit sa board considering may rubber feet sya at pag inalis naman yung rubber feet, mahaba masyado yung screws.  :-)

Hahaha yeah! me too! :) Actually ang type ko na wah ay aggressive so ang nakikita ko talaga is yung Zakk Wylde at Lynch 2.. Yun lang mas leaning to Lynch ako for the reason na maganda bypass ng Morley.. Heard lang ksi na di daw ok bypass ng dunlop pero i personally haven't put a single dunlop wah in my board so 'heard' lang... Tsaka switchless kasi ung lynch eh! :)

Nice, those are earlier ones, right?

I had an old RMC WOF wah once, but it's now with another forumite. :) I must say that Geoffrey's customer service is really great. Really recommended.

That may be the same red wof that traveled south hehe. Teese has an encyclopedic knowledge on wahs. And he shares that knowledge to those who have same passion as his. I love the rmc that has the. 015uf sweep cap. I forgot if that was the rmc2

Definitely want to try some more of his wahs (the RMC8 in particular.. which I think is like the rmc4 but with more controls). I like how he has a pic pa sa pedals niya. haha cool ang dating.

I think that pic is intended to mimic the original vox clyde mccoy wah. That has the face of jazz trumpeter clyde mccoy.
