Needed a much better wah than my crappy Morley. Found the light in the CFH. Around 150$, but it's worth every penny.

The main reason that this wah far surpasses any wah I've played/owned is its adjustability. There are infinate different settings you can use, thus it forms itself to any wah situation. The most common adjustment i use is the 5 position frequency selecter on the right side. It basically adjusts where in the pedal position the frequency will peak. This knob is prety big too, so u can adjust it right with your foot w/o having to stop playing. The other great feature is the onboard boost switch. Also able to be tapped on with your foot, it add an adjustable amount of extra presence to the wah, perfect for some crushing Dime solos! Also, as with most crybabys, its got the adjustments for frequency and even a fine tune knob for high end. An awsome wah, the only one you'll ever need.

Only a few small problems. The Q-control knob, fine tune knob, and boost level knob are all really small and kind of fickle to adjust. But really once you have those where you want them you will only be messing with the 5 way selector. Also, some people may say the price is a little steep, but I truely believe it's well worth it. As I said, you wont need any other wahs EVER.

Oh come on.....its got a camo paint job. How do you THINK the construction is. I think you could throw this sucker off a building into a busy street.....pick it up.....plug it in.......and she'll be right in tune. I've had it for 2 years with no signs of trouble.....and seeing how its a Dunlop I don't expect I ever will.

if you're looking for a wah.....don't settle for anything less. Any sound you could ever want from a wah. A lot of pedals have come and gone through my setup, but the only pedal I've never wanted to or needed to upgrade or replace is my Dime Crybaby.
