Do you have any suggestions about how to use a wah-wah? "The first thing you don't do is tap your foot on it in time with the music. The two basics are to locate a notch in the pedal so it gets a mid-range sustain that is tuned properly to the amp EQ that you have, so you get a nice boxy sound out of it to make all those stinkin' tones that teenagers really go for, and the other thing is to move it very slightly and put most of the action in the rear half of the pedal, because that's where you get most of the speaking type sounds out of it. When you push it right down and open the filter all the way up you get that squeaky sound, and I don't like that. I like the middle range of the pedal. Don't tilt it all the way forward or back, just work the middle of it. It only takes a very little foot movement to change the whole sound of your guitar. Which one to use depends on what kind of sound you want. They all have different responses. In the very beginning I used the original Vox pedal, and then later I moved to the Boomerang, because when I didn't have the guitar with the pre-amp it added a certain amount of distortion, and I liked that. I'll be using a Boomerang tonight. " -Guitar Player Magazine 1977

Tara McLeod

McLeod: I play a goldtop Gibson Les Paul. It’s the most comfortable neck I’ve ever played. I’ve laid my Explorer to rest because the Les Paul is so beautiful. Onstage, I only use three effects—a Boss DD-3 Digital Delay, a Boss BD-2 Blues Driver for a solo boost, and a Vox wah.

Great Sounding Wah

This pedal has great range for the Wah sweeps but lacks the ability to alter the tone of the pedal which gives this pedal a 4 star and not a 5.
