«  It all but crackle knob prohibitive »

Published on 10/28/13 at 10:44
Everything is here: two fasels, side switches, boost +20 db, LEDs indicating fasel, boost and ON / OFF control of the two Q by trimpot.
Level look I love it! In short, a day that started pretty good!

UTILIZATION

Nothing really, even to resolve internal trimpots.

SOUND QUALITY

Whether it's clear or crunch, the wah is not flimsy cardboard and bland but expressive, musical and very organic. After setting the trimpots wouuaahhh is more consistent (factory setting 1 hour for a knob that goes from 10am to 8am, I personally was at 4am on the yellow and the red 8am fasel fasel). Now in sound quality, there is quality and there as I doubt! I read the test AceLeppard speaking defective screws and pops when the switch is activated and there on the two points I confirm!
For screws must be mega watch to not distort the thread and crunches they are present as if the knob was defective. An audible "scccritch" on the chords where only wah rhythm just fart cash atmosphere!
Finally the boost, not personal use to me, since no loss of db is to report the engagement and the crunch or big sound, I use pedals that already boost the sound.

OVERALL OPINION

Although initially seduced by his sending wood Hendrix I quickly became disillusioned with the crippling crunches are certainly less audible with big sound but are ineligible especially if we imagine the result with 10K frontage!
Now, I personally research the sound near the first wah made in Italy (cons less) and when you see the pictures on the web (I did not have the chance to have a real Vox 67) circuits of time it is far enough from the PCB machine made of the MC404. This may be the explanation. Damage, however after trying RMC7, and Vox handwired Budda wah, I thought I had dug the Grail, but the evidence must s'rendre you not n'trouverez eternal life with Custom Audio!
