• 100% signal bypass when not in use, keeps guitar tone true
• Hard-wire bypass, quite operation, boutique quality components
The Lowdown:
Although the wah has been with us for many a year, the newer designs have not addressed some of the problems inherent with the older circuitry. For example, take the loading and muddiness of the signal when the wah has been by-passed, the narrow frequency range and the use of sub standard parts for assembly. Taking these issues into account, Budda Amplification researched the original Vox wah and designed a modern version incorporating the original specifications with upgraded tonal characteristics. Analyzing the original "Fasel" inductor was the first measure taken to obtain the tonal sweep that made the original Vox wah the tool that it was. Our design offers a frequency band that has the mid range honk and top end boost of a vintage pedal without the harshness. The next step was to conquer the tonal loss and muddiness that occurs when you by-passed the wah. By implementing a "hardwire bypass" modification, we have been able to eliminate the wah completely from the circuit so that you retain your amp's and guitar's true tonal characteristics.
