$300 on a wah?

[kahuna]

Hey people! I have $300 to spend on a wah, i want something that is deep and throaty yet aggressive and can sound nice both clean and driven. I would like something not piercing on clean and driven, it must cut through the mix and the sweep must be heard!

Abit demanding, but its a long shot, was considering the 535Q

morley bad horsie

RMC Wizard Wah.

The badhorsie i had, sounded like the name. An dying horse, something i won't miss.

Or you could pickup a Vox wah and get it modded by the several different techs here in sg.

Area 51's a good choice.

If you're not too traditional, abit pricey, but the zvex wah probe is mad cool and fun.

the footprint of the morley is too big, biggest i'd go is fulltone Clyde

Forgot to mention this.

A Budda Wah or the new MXR CAE (okay not so new anymore) Wah are both pretty decent as well.

What mods can be done? Could controls be added?(sorry, im a versatility guy haha!)

How about the RMC stuff?

Was thinking about the area 51, can put that kind of money in but hoping i wont need to go there haha! Need money for a new drumset too haha!

 

[kahuna]

i heard about the CAE wah, what is the price range on those?

 

[j_m_s]

www.proguitarshop.com www.tonefactor.com has the prices up.

controls sure can be added, depends on what you want i guess.

area 51. u wont regret it. i've tried the picture wah too. its very similiar to the area 51, but area 51 there are optional add ons like growl and sweep knobs..

 

[kahuna]

the quack and growl controls is what attracted it to me

Have u tried Vox Big Bad Wah?...very cool sounding wah with tweaking capabilities.
I believed it's about $260 at City Music

 

[kahuna]

not a fan of its footprint haha!

 

[squirrel]

RMC 2 or 3

 

[Ized]

well lets see... I've owned about 7 wahs in my lifetime including the likes of a Budda, RMC, various crybabies and others i cant even remember.

And I still ended up going back to the Vox V847.

Modded of course

 

[wck]

yeah modded v847 ftw!!
u can put voicing controls. mine has it.
pretty versatile and it saves u some money

 

[dudelove]

kahuna, dont forget to check out the wilson wahs. forgot to mention that. i would pick this had i not got an area 51. they are reasonably priced and have a wide a array of choice, and they also have lots of added features like growl and quack controls and whatnot.

oh and truebypass and has the fuzz friendly buffer. pretty damn sick

 

[loclam]

Carl Martin 2 Wah.

Have fun !

wah nice...you got one from the man himself too? :mrgreen:

 

[wck]

yeah i did.
went in spoilt came out better than new
im lovin it

i wonder if that man still takes in modding of pedals... his pedal seems to be a rage, so i think he very busy. will email him again. Attracted to what ized described on the v847 in the other wah thread, the old one.
