I just purchased one a few weeks ago and I am extremely happy with it, very quiet, no tone sucks, built like a brick and sounds fantastic.

I had one in the past (sold due to getting AxeFX).
Unlike (for example) a Crybaby it does not get that ultra high thin glassy sound when completely toedown.

Get it, you'll love it. period.

Hehe. It's a great pedal. All my opinion ofcourse but to my ears its Quiet, responsive, built like a tank but not huge like some other wahs out there. Good luck w purchase and enjoy it once she's yours.

Cheers Redburst, i know what you mean about the bigger wahs. I saw the Mark Tremonti wah a while ago and nearly fainted. That thing needs a pedal board all to itself!!!

honest opinion - BEST WAH EVER - I've had crybaby's since I started playing and I took a risk on buying this (becuase it's almost triple what I paid for my previous wah) - NEVER LOOKED BACK.

It's dynamic - it has a HUGE toneal range and it's it built like a tank - best money I spent on a pedal - Don't get me wrong I'm a fanboi - but this is a great pedal. -

And to quote Blues Saraceno - "it doesn't takeup too much real estate" - becuase it's not trapezoid in height profile it sits level on my board and I have size 12 feet - again don't feel like I'll slip off - (And you know what they say about men with big feet?? - they are difficult to buy socks for over the festive period!)

Here's where mine lives...

i absolutley love mine been using it for about a year now love the sound and use it 95% of the time but also i have a bad horsie wah right next to it and since it switchless i use that one for quick passages and my singer steps on it when im not near my board.

I love mine for all the reasons above; sound, build, smooth switch and action, etc., but you know what may be my second favorite feature? (behind tone, which is clearly #1)

It's so simple, but I LOVE THE LED's that tell you if it's on or off!

I played a Dunlop cry-baby for years -which is a great pedal and all- but I can't tell you how many times I'd come out of a lead and back to rhythm and the wah is still on because I didn't press it down hard enough or something...

i will tell you that by virtue i'm not a wah guy at all; however, i'm rebuilding my pedalboard and my eb wah found home on the new board... so this is in my humble opinion the best wah you can get... especially coming from a non-wah guy

I got one a couple of years ago.

Fantastic, seems to have more travel in the pedal than most other wah's and really lets you control the tones available from it.

Really cool, used it lots and its never let me down.

Plus the LED's are really bright green, how cool can one pedal be!

Hi All

Finally got the Wah, £50 off ebay, absolute bargain. It is great like you all said and is a keeper for me.

Cheers
