JEN cry baby super

This is a wah that I bought from its owner who had for 30 years, including 20 in his garage ... Suffice to say that the potentiometer does not have 30 minutes of play after a change in the potentiometer a "Icar" which are very good, since the wah works perfectly.
It is a model with the original fasel red.

UTILIZATION

Not much to say about it, apart from the fact that running and config is very close to a dunlop crybaby or a vox as we know them today.

On my model I have a weird power supply for the record, I have not tested but it looks like the mini jack plugs of EHX. It can easily change, otherwise enlarge the hole in the frame to set the standard DC plug (Boss-type).

SOUND QUALITY

I tested and has a lot of wahs, vintage Colorsound, Maestro Boomerang, Schaller, crybaby, vox changed ... I even exchanged for this wah double Jen sound that incorporates a fuzz: I quickly retrieve the mine because of the double fuzz the race was too short for my taste and less pronounced wah effect even if the fuzz is.

In short, this is a great wah, which produces a slight boost when switched on, we need to know (at least on mine). It is also rich in mediums, which, especially saturated, makes a dirty and nervous that I love her. Perfect for yelling at a solo or for grimey casseroles.

I use it on telecaster, but double is perfect too.

OVERALL OPINION

Of all the wah I have, is one that is constantly on my pedal board. It is for my rock band.

But also being a fan of funk, I appreciate the Colorsound for his big race and beach very appreciable frequencies in the clear, even if not easy to tame at first. The Meastro is a killer for plans grimey way or Son of Shaft Shaft on a clear sound or slightly crunch, but it's too dirty saturation.

Much richer than crybaby classic and organic, if you are not bothered by the slight boost effect (which must be resolved by adding a resistor in output), it is a wah test without waiting!

Wah!

UTILIZATION

Wah! no boost or other, just wah!

SOUND QUALITY

I like the sound dlicieusement "dirty" I have not found with other models of wah-wah pedals I've tried (morley, vox), leaves with a cry-baby of Dunlop.
In addition, and what is important trs, it benefitted from a good bypass.
A particular feature of the machine (however anecdotal) is its lgret compared to other models of wah ... probably an alloy low-end, but remains strong enough.
I would however point out that my use is especially since I'm not a pianist and guitarist, but I use it with a rhodes piano ... I prt of the guitarists who have satisfied t .. .

OVERALL OPINION

Wah effect (thunder, right?)
I possde the pedals for years and am happy trs, despite his age dboires read (I think it dates from the 80s), like spitting. .. noise switch.

In short, good product I can recommend.

The wah its leading manufacturer, Italian Jen Pescara. Recall that Jen has filed all Premire Vox today trs research.

UTILIZATION

It's a wah, wah which only. We play on the effect of changing the race potentiomtre Crant like all wah.

SOUND QUALITY

The effect of inductance dpend Troit uses: the sound can vary from the other pedals. Mine both date from the late 70's, 80 beginners (like Jen in the photo). THE FIRST TDK style features a Fasel, a copy of Red Fasel Fidler that TDK has produced long ago in small quantities. The other team is directly from the original Red Fasel. THE FIRST dlivre extrment prcis sound that I never get with my russi GCB-95, even by changing the inductance, the pot, condos, r resistors and transistors by Fairchild and an MPS18 BC109C. The second provides a more consistent, more load mdium without losing high frequencies. It also has more power and prsence. In practice, therefore, over time, I prfre another. Jen is, all things Whereas my brand prfre plutt or one of my two brands prfres with Colorsound.

OVERALL OPINION

A superb wah.
