ProgressiveTom25 « A very good wha! »
Published on 05/26/12 at 09:09This is a whawha ...
Two modes, one chooses the lever to the left of the pedal. 3 knobs to adjust the effect and which fall within the body of the pedal when pressed: practice not to inadvertently turn them once found its settings.
A Range switch with two modes: normal and low (rather low)
If not, in and out and deprives 9V guitar.
Note two small fine adjustments located between the pedal and the base which are not convenient access ...
A large screw on the pedal to adjust the hardness of the spring.
The pedal is not true bybass but she seems fairly transparent.
The chassis is metal and seems very sturdy as the pedal is largely sheathed in a solid non-slip coating.
UTILIZATION
I turned to this particular pedal to its modes of operation:
- With a switch (on the right pad of the foot) for activation, which keeps the effect triggered without necessarily having the foot on it;
- Automatic: In this mode, the off position, the pedal is always in the up position and is activated when it is played (and not as soon as one sets foot on it like the G-Lab). It cuts as soon as it is the foot (a little knob to adjust the running time of the effect).
Finally, I use almost the automatic mode because it avoids making tap ...
The knobs allow you to adjust the effect but I do not think they have a phenomenal work. They can change the scope in the frequency and height but not really the overall sound range of the pedal. Better to love her!
SOUND QUALITY
This is not a vintage wah! It will be more comfortable in the rock and metal records. She also is doing very well for funk.
On clean sounds, it makes good but beware because it can saturate the amplifier if it is set a bit much ...
In sound, I would say it is fairly neutral and does not color the sound too much. It also depends on its position in a chain (for me, it comes before a multi-purpose zoom G7).
In the end is quite discreet. But playing with the settings it is still possible to get a fairly pronounced effect. The ability to force the volume can also have some kind of boost when activated (eg for solos).
OVERALL OPINION
This is a very good wha that fits most styles although it should probably not on vintage music (but hey ... "weeping demon" ...?).
Its adjustment possibilities as well as its two operating modes make it quite versatile.
Its failure: it eats batteries in one of these speed ...! I have also not managed to get me the Ibanez dedicated adapter with a compatible adapter and it generates a lot of breath ... (Perhaps due to my electrical system is old).
Before buying it I had also eyed the side of Morley including those taken from the system and autoswitch Wowee wha on G-lab, which sounds great but is quite expensive and not readily available.
