This is a wah wah with distortion of cicuit (Slash signature model). The all analog. Pedal power supply (18v) not included.

UTILIZATION

Config used in simple "two ways":
- How "clean" (non-distortion circuit enabled): you push the pedal to the bottom and go to the wah ;-)
- Mode "drive" (you need this time press the small switch on the right): as you push the pedal to the bottom (if not already done so clean) and go to the wah with the distortion. In this mode you can then use the volume buttons to adjust and drive as you prefer!

Please note a change in cell super easy with a little trap on the top of the pedal!

SOUND QUALITY

Frankly I did not buy this pedal because it's Slash, I like the sound of wah but I tested a few others in advance (I have a Morley for many years to scrap its too-clean, not enough "Wah" for my taste-, Ibanez Weaping deamon-its too synthetic, base-Cry Baby its too loud in trebble-...).

My choice is focused on this pedal:
- How "clean" (non distortion on) is very nice, a nice bump wah with a good volume level of the hump against by even if it remains in full trebble sustain is not the best. Perfect for the wah wah wah funk of excessive or crunch or distortion lines passing over the hump on a regular basis
- Mode "drive" is really good, even if the distortion is not very hot but some say it offers great possibilities really amp with a clear sound but also crunch or distortion. The drive to 0, it gives more scope in relation to how "clean" an increased sustain, and pushing the drive there is the flood of harmonics, feedback, etc., if desired, all controllable up staying at the hump of the wah to maintain or grow in the trebble to leave.

This pedal offers a lot of possibilities.

I use it with a tube amp, Fender and scratches (and yes even LP) ;-)

Funk, reggae, rock, hard for me it all fits in my opinion!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one week, and my clear that Morley will not come out of the closet for now ...
Chero hair for a Wah but it's worth it!

Last thing, despite what is said in the doc this wah is not true bypass, if you plug the guitar into the amp live or passing through the non-activated wah sound is slightly different, but it is very very reasonable, and just a little fix its settings if necessary ;-) Or do the mod or the switch then use an A / B box. But for me it's not worth it I think ...
