Product Description
The VOX V847 Wah-Wah pedal is an enhanced version of the most famous guitar effects pedal of all time. Based on the specifications of the original pedal developed by VOX in the '60s, the new Wah-Wah offers guitarists the same legendary tone with the addition of AC power capability and a buffered input jack for preserving the unprocessed guitar tone when the pedal is not engaged. The pedal’s inductor has undergone a redesign to be closer in specification to the original VOX wah inductors, for improved dynamics and tone. These additions will benefit players of all genres who use a wah pedal as an integral part of their sound. VOX developed the world’s first Wah-Wah effect during the '60s in an effort to allow guitarists to emulate the sound of a trumpet being muted — an important musical ingredient of the day. VOX’s original Wah-Wah pedal quickly gained widespread popularity and its unique sonic characteristics have encouraged further experimentation by guitarists ever since. Having made spotlight appearances on some of the most famous recordings of all time, the Wah-Wah is still considered “must-have equipment” for guitar players of all levels and abilities today.

In my opinion, the best sounding wah on the market. It has a wide, full range of tones so you can get your funk and Jimi Hendrix on. Works well for a Temptations, "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" vibe. I run it through my Mesa-Boogie Subway Blues and get a pretty decent vintage tone with it. Since I don't play metal music, I'm not sure how Kurt Hammet-esque it would sound. I sold guitars for a while and have tried wahs from Dunlop and Morley. I think the Vox beats them both hands down, but it all depends on your musical tastes.

I wanted a wah-wah pedal that had a mellow snarl to it but also a growl, and this is it. For funk it works great. I was supprised how professional it sounded. It also souned great for playing those phycedellic sounding chord progressions. I love this thing. If your just starting to get effects pedals (like I am) than you gotta have a wah-wah, and this one gave me the exact sound I wanted. the only problem I had with it is that the on/off foot button broke, so it could still wah, but I just couldn't turn it off. I took it into the store and they fixed it no charge and now it works great again. So if you need a good wah-wah pedal that has the exact sound we all want, then you have no other choice but to get this.

I've had mine for well over 10 years now, and having playing *many* other wahs, this is the one that stays on stage with me. It's got the best sweep, the wah bubble sounds great and is easy to control (ever notice on other wahs how uneven the sweep is, like you're dropping off a cliff all of the sudden?). And if for any reason you want to take it to the next level, you can get a fasel inductor and/or true bypass (parts'll cost you $20, most guitar techs will put 'em in for another 10-20) and really be screaming. (I recommend the true bypass in any case)This wah lets you do the funky bow-chika-bow-wow, talk ala "Voodoo Child" and everything in between. I've used it with strats, jazzmasters, 335s and the G&L teles. Never anything less than smoking.And as you might guess, in the 10+ years I've had it, it has taken a royal beating. I've gone through 3 volume pedals, but my VOX has always stayed tough.
