What Wah
« on: May 25, 2006, 09:38:19 PM »
I am looking at getting a new wha pedal

My Cry-baby has cried its last cry.

I am not sure whether to get a new one of these or a vox wah.

I have also been looking at the digitech ex-7 wah modelling pedal


any help or advice would be good thanks

I had a Crybaby from Hell for awhile (good pedal) but if was to get another would prolly try the new Slash crybaby. As well made but more tweakable and more gain.

thing is being a dyed in the wool Blues man who like to experiment, I always look at other options before I look at the most obvious ones :?  8)

no... its ones where you just push forwards on the pedal and they turn on, they are spring loaded so when you release the pedal it goes back to being c--ked back and then it switches off.. I think.

The driving guitar force behind Creed helped design the Morley Mark Tremonti Power Wah -- the most advanced, hottest wah around. No switch, just step on it to engage the wah and step off to disengage. Boost knob adds 20dB of wah boost and the tone is a perfect hybrid of classic and contemporary wah voices. Electro-optical design means there are no pots to wear out. Clear-Tone buffer circuit, diamond plate footpad, and LED indicator. Works great with bass guitar.
