Published on 03/23/11 at 17:33After many hours researching and demoing wahs I finally settled on the Fullton Clyde Deluxe and haven't looked back since. This in my opinion is the best wah pedal on the market. The wah radius is so smooth and articulate that it makes using this thing a joy.
I needed one with a light or and LED so I knew when it was on because so many times I have played with wahs in the middle of a gig and didn't know if I clicked if off because sometimes those clickers can be quite finicky. Unlike the regular Fulltone Clyde this one along with the modes has a light to let you know.
Fulltone Clyde Deluxe Wah Guitar Effects Pedal Features:
* 10-step Variable Input Level Control
* True-Bypass with bright side-viewable low current Pilot light status indicator
* 3 selectable modes: Wacked, Jimi, and Shaft
UTILIZATION
Pretty simple to use like any wah...step on it and move your foot up and down. It sounds so good in front of an overdriven amp. The knobs are quite simple...it has the three modes which really sound different from each other and then it has the input level control. I use it pretty sparingly like most people do and haven't had any problems so far with the string breaking or it getting corroded.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality is supurb! I pretty much stay on the Jimi setting since that one in my opinion is more geared for rock music which I play. The wacked mode is cool for some interesting wah sounds. Not that usable in a most music in my experience. The shaft is cool for that 70's funk vibe. It really comes as close as you're going to get to that sound. It is fun to play around with the options.
I run mine with all kinds of set ups and rigs. Right now I am using it with a Splawn Quickrod, a Les Paul, and a vintage Marshall 4x12 with Blackback Celestion speakers. I have some effects too but not worth mentioning for this review. I think it has a more natural sound than a Crybaby or Vox wah.
Try it with a Strat and set it on the shaft mode to get some fun funk sounds that makes everyone turn and look when you click it on.
OVERALL OPINION
This is a great pedal. It is a little expensive but it is worth the money to get a wah that sounds this natural. This one is price around $245 nowadays. Not a bad pick up to add to your pedal board. I actually own two of these units. One I keep with one rig and I have the other for my home rig.
I would recommend this wah for any guitar player in need of one. It really is a supurb unit that will give you three distinct voicings. Great for recording too which I have had the experience of using.
