Wah pedal?

Zoton

Looking into getting a wah pedal at the moment. Any suggestions on the best one?
Dunlop would appear to be the kings. The Crybaby 535Q an JH-1 seem to be good models. Opinion in ibanez's weeping demon seem to be mixed.

(It would have to be true bypass too, wouldn't want anything leaching tone from my eggle. )

Vox all the way.
Nicer sweep than the Dunlops...

Any particular models fitz?

You certainly would not. I own an eggle too. Its a L.A. Pro (or might be Plus.... :rolleyes: ). Lovely guitar. What do you own eggle-wise. Fulltone and RMC make really good wahs apparantly. I haven't tried them out but sound clips are promising enough. Some dunlpos have a woefull bypass which can be modded to true bypass. This is a pretty good idea if already own one but if you want a T.B. pedal your best to go out and buy one with T.B. to begin with.

Are any of the dunlop's True Bypass? And if they do is it an effective true bypass?
Morley have a Tremonti sig wah, oh i must get that

I dont know if dunlop do a true bypass wah. There standard models are definately not. Morley wahs are quite different to dunlops. what type of a wah sound are you going for ....hendrix/cream, Shaft/Funk or modern sound like Vai etc. For the older sounds I would reccommend fulltone, from the sound samples I have heard. For the funk stuff Snarling Dogs wahs are pretty good. For the modern stuff Morley do tremonti and Vai signatures. RMC do wahs for all sorts of sounds. I think That something like this would be perfect for most applications. Pricy but really good quality.

You could get a really good deal on this, depending on how the bidding pans out. They dont cost ALL that much to ship either. Around €25 I'd imagine...?

Well good luck anyway.

It wasn't me!

Seriously can't go wrong with the Bad Horsie for sharper wah sounds but the Voxes are brilliant for classic wah sounds. The BH is true bypass; don't know about the Voxes though.

I'd be looking more for an Adam Jones type sound. (As far as i know he uses a dunlop 535Q). Or maybe Sully Erna.
In fairness Tremonti does have a pretty good sound, despite the cheesiness.
I'd be avoiding Vai like the plague.
