A nice classic wah

A very well made pedal. A little less sharp than the v846hw, but a little more punch. And it has a power supply connection finally.

the 847 is Vox's best "split the difference wah".... I swore by mine for years before I got fed up with wah. Needs a unity gain buffer in wah mode and true bypass though.... mine was a tone eater.

I had a v846hw which was wonderfully refined, it got stolen and i decided to try another model. I feel a bit of tone suck, but it really roars. Used to have a standard cry baby but it feels much colder than Vox to me.

Great job at cheapest price!

It tunes really fast and responsively, battery holds on for a long time, and is reeeeeeally cheap. Doesn't take space in the pedalboard and doesn't interfere with your sound. Wonderful!

Flanger on a budget

It has a wide range of sounds, as knobs have an extremely wide range of values. Setting it with full regen, short delay time and much width will even make it oscillate! I once just unplugged the guitar cord and just played the pedal with a delay for wacky howling noises. That said, it sounds quite good with cleans, from a sublte caress to a "boiling water" bubbly sound, but never harsh. With distorted sounds it doesn't feel right, not adding really much to the sound; not before the distortion pedal, nor after. It comes for really cheap so iit could be worth buying if you like flanger.
