How many here use the Ernie Ball WAH?

I really like it. For starters, the form factor and extra sweep are excellent ... much better than the standard wah pedals.

The voicing works for me. I can see how it's not for everybody (hey, that's why there are so many differently voiced wahs on the market), but I think it's nicely between a vintage and modern wah sound. I sold my Budda wah once I got the EB Wah and never looked back.

The LED is brilliant.

I own and use one on my board for smaller gigs, but for large gigs I use the Dunlop Rack Wah. The EB is a killer pedal though. Sounds and plays butter smooth.

The voicing was great for high gain stuff, very articulate, but for more blues/funk stuff it was far too harsh. Didn't have any quack like you find with the RMC wahs.
.

Can someone agree with that? I was hoping to get myself EB Wah for funk kind of stuff. Unfortunately I cannot find any here in my city, so I would buy it without trying... I like the sound of Dunlop 535q and Fulltone Clyde Deluxe (it's very funky), but I love the look and green bright LED's on EB Wah - and it's EB

Don't a lot of funk players run a comp? Seems like that would help make it quack...

I certainly disagree...
I've only had mine a few days, so I could still be in the honeymoon period But it bumped my old 535q right of the pedal board! The night I got it we were running a heap of living colour stuff and the whole band thought the EB was much warmer. And yep, the lights are SO good.

I love my ball wah, best tone sweep ever, I will keep it till the day I die, Never heard another wah like it, and hopefully never will.

Pricier than a JD std, but a hell of a wider tone. - so even for a cheap-ass like me it's worth it.

I'm gonna have to play this and the Budda Wah side by side. The EB Wah is so much more versatile with its wider sweep, making it useful in both gain and clean situations and everything in between, but that Budda wah is so buttery and creamy.
