Talking Wah Appreciation Thread

Seeing as it's a staple part of my rig, and seeing as I've had one ever since about 3 months after i got a guitar, it's about time there was a thread dedicated to one of the most usefull effects ever

So, questions:

1) How many wah's do you own?

2) What wah's have you owned?

3) Favorite Wah out of the above

4) What wah would you like to own?

5) What features would make it into your ultimate wah pedal?

6) Worst wah ever owned?

The Chaos has come:

At the present 2. A silver shiny limited edition vox wah that's got more range than a normal vox, and the dimebag crybaby

-a standard vox wah (borrowed off me and never returned), liked it, but not enough range, more subtle

-morley optical wah, somewhere in the early 90's model, was cool, but preferred the vox

So far it is pretty much still the silver shiny vox i have, it cuts through like a knife through butter. The dimebag I'd say is a close second, although i haven't fiddled with it much save getting a sound i liked out of it.

I'd still like to get a crybaby with the "instant on" feature. Just being able to slam the foot down and wah is something I really would like after playing about with the bass crybaby, and something i'd have loved to have had in the dimebag wah.

The flexibility
of the Dimebag, with the instant on feature, and being able to nail the same sound as the silver vox

1. Two, Morley BH2 and Morley Pro
2. Just the above
3. Morely Pro > * for most situations.
4. Another Pro for rhythms, because the BH2 is badass for solos.
5. A BH2 without the auto-shutoff.

1) How many wah's do you own? One, a Dunlop Crybaby

2) What wah's have you owned? Two, this is my second Crybaby. The first died in a freak blunt trauma accident.

3) Favorite Wah out of the above Probably the old one, out of spite.

4) What wah would you like to own? Not sure... I haven't used mine much lately, I should probably start thinking about it again.

5) What features would make it into your ultimate wah pedal? See above. For a Satriani fanboy, I've really moved away from the wah.

Always wondered about the weeping demon, looks like a pedal that is style over substance...

6) Worst wah ever owned:
I'd have to say the morley, the sound wasn't very good on it. (Unless i can count multi-fx wahs, in which case the one on the gt-5 wasn't much cop either, and i don't have good experiences with wah's built into multi-fx)

multi-FX wahs are always pretty crappy. Though the wah on my flextone II head is decent. Too bad the wah pedal on the pedalboard ist kinda uncomfortable. I prefer the bulky, heavy-duty dunlop construction FTW

hard to say i havent been overly impressed with either the 'custom crome' (i think is its name) on my pod is my favorite on there and i do like the sound of the crybaby but there isnt enough range if that makes sense

the one that came built in to my zoom 606 pedal i got when i was younger, sounded shit and there was no way of turning it on or off it was either assinged to the channel or it wasnt

so are there any wah's out there with the 'instant' on feature i'd love to pick one up

Knights that say
