«  Solid but not great »

Published on 07/24/14 at 03:13
Wha-wha guitar or bass with a setting range.

Close up positive pedal metal very strong and super beefy, there is an LED for activation which does not necessarily exist in a state Cry-Baby.

UTILIZATION

Yes it is a whah wah what.

Another big positive engagement is really easy and it is far from always the case on wha-wah so it is anything but a detail in my opinion.

The pedal travel is very soft and pleasant to use.

SOUND QUALITY

This is where it goes bad, as said in previous reviews the effect is absolutely not, but then absolutely not progressive, the "wah" type occurs on 5% of the pedal travel.

It is very dull on a large part of the race and suddenly it's "wah" pedal lowering 5mm, personally it is not at all that I want to use this type of pedal stroke I think it is pretty poor in fact ...

Add to that the fact that the sound saturates easily (at least on my config humbuckers / randall tube) and suddenly my perspective pedal really sucks.

OVERALL OPINION

It will be easy enough to summarize:
- The "mechanical" side is pretty good.
- The next "electronic" is rather very bad.

Too bad the design is pretty good, but the circuit at all, suddenly it can serve as a good case to possibly put another circuit, but from my point of view it can be used for anything else.
