I love curly cables

Curly cables deaden highs a little. Vox makes good ones that last a while. I have one with over two years constant use and it's going strong.

Great price and plays well

I have a 20th Anniversary edition and it's well built and still looks good after over 15 years of constant playing. It could use some hotter pickups but thats about all.

It deliveries an old school Fender sound

I use a USA made Fender Blues De Ville. 60 watts and four 10 inch speakers. It has a really sweet reverb and a drive channel, which I never use. I have pedals to take care of overdrive and distortion. It sounds like Chess Records from the 60's.

It makes a good clean boost

I use the TC Mojomojo as a clean boost. I works to beef up an already distorted sound or to make a wah sound really meaty.

A great pedal for phasy, vibe effects.

It's a nice modulation pedal, but it doesn't go over the top if you want it to. It also has a jack for an expression pedal.

Good range

I use a Moog expression pedal to control the speed on my Electro Harmonix Good Vibes pedal. It has knob on the side to fine tune the sensitivity and a polarity switch on the bottom.

They're the standard that wahs are judged by.

I've been using Cry Baby Wah's since I first start playing the guitar many years ago.

It's a decent distortion pedal

The Boss DS-1 was very popular when I was starting out, in the late '70's/early '80's. I back off on the distortion some and use it for an overdrive type of sound.
