The Japanese Girl wah looks to be about perfect though. Anyone have any practical experience with it? Thanks again for the positive responses. I owned it for awhile. Nice sounding wah. Versatile. I ended up deciding I like the sound of the Ernie Ball more... it's a bit more subtle and better with dirt. As far as parked tones go, it can do them just fine, but the tiny treadle does make it a little tricky. When you find the sweet spot, you almost always move it a little when taking your foot off. It's a great little pedal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil O'Keefe Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 A micro wah plus a something like a Dunlop Q Zone (or similar) would probably be a pretty cool setup. It would take almost as much space as a full-sized wah though... although you'd be able to spread it out differently since it's two small pedals instead of one big one. And you could leave the Q Zone set to a resonant frequency ala Mick Ronson or Michael Schenker and still wah over that if you wanted to... or quickly switch the fixed filter in and out without having to lose your settings, and while still being able to, as riff ie so eloquently put it, "get your pac man on" whenever you need to.

Members NewRiggins Posted December 1, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 I do like the looks of the japanese girl. The Micro wah is kinda cool, but not much cheaper than the AMT. Q zone looks interesting period, gonna have to keep my eye out for one. That and a J girl would be a killer combo too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BAXANDALL Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 Qzone is getting harder to find these days but I want one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NewRiggins Posted December 1, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 just checked out some vids of the wah probe, think I might deal with what I have a bit longer and save up a little more cash for one. Man, the things you can do with them by not being limited by a rocker pedal. just looks damn fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members A.P. Ryder Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 The Wah Probe is a great sounding and fun pedal. I have a few pretty good wahs (Budda, Teese), but the WP gets most of the action. ZVEX put out a new vexter model so it's not only cheaper but also has new mix and volume knobs for more control of the sound. I think it runs about $200, but you could probably find it cheaper.

Members NewRiggins Posted December 2, 2012 Author Members Share Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks for the heads up, the vexter version is much more in my price range right now! I've been kind of a traditional hard rock player for so long I really want a change, so trying to be a little more adventurous with the pedals.in the process of building a new board, will add it to the pedalboards thread when I'm done.
