George Dennis GD-65 Parametric Wah-VolumePublished on 06/07/09 at 11:58
(This content has been automatically translated from French)
George Dennis pedals are made ... Prague! But to find them in Europe ... I found mine in the USA!

The Parametric Wah-Volume or GD65 is the high-end of the Wah from George Dennis.

- Switches to optical detection
- Electronic switch
- Not specified but apparently not "true bypass"
- Controls boost, Q (wah effect intensity) and frequency range scanned
- Volume control for the minimum volume function
- 9V battery power or mains

Solid and serious, good finish and original presentation.

The scale is sensitive, precise and progressive.
The electronic switch is quiet, gentle and well calibrated.

The Parametric Wah-Volume or GD65 is the high-end of the Wah from George Dennis.

- Controls boost, Q (wah effect intensity) and frequency range scanned
- Volume control for the minimum volume function

UTILIZATION

Easy and intuitive: no manual, but it's useless.
The scale is sensitive, precise and progressive.
The electronic switch is quiet, gentle and well calibrated.
The potentiometers are also sensitive and progressive.
Easy to adjust, intuitive, simple to use.

SOUND QUALITY

Here is a very modern side wah sounds.
The frequency range scanned is adjustable and fits 5-string bass and treble guitars whammy-esque.
The boost helps bring this adrenaline wah.
Adjustable Q factor offers a nice range of sounds, the softer and more subtle to dramatic.
But beware, once again, we are here in modernity and atypical. This particular cash wah very large distortions with still a lot of presence.
For sounds "vintage" soft, warm and round, this wah is less convincing. For effectiveness against ...
The bandpass filter seems pretty narrow and the scanning frequency is accompanied by an effective "volume" rather surprising that adds an unexpected vocal character. Spectacular I tell you ...

The volume function is active when the wah is inactive. The minimum volume setting allows especially to use it as a manual vibrato, finally walking ... The pedal is very transparent. That said I think this pedal is true bypass because of the volume function (resistance removing treble even at maximum volume).

I therefore regret that function just volume that we would go well and especially the lack of true bypass: a modern wah this guy is a shame.

OVERALL OPINION

I was surprised by this wah: many modern and atypical. Wah a spectacular and very vocal.
The vintage sounds are not honored. on the other hand for expressive solos with a big distortion, it is unique.

Its volume remains useless function that eats some treble bypass, finally volume function.
But some may appreciate this dual function.

Remains a different pedal and not just another clone of some wah in the late 60s.
