Members zinzin Posted May 16, 2006 Members Share Posted May 16, 2006 i know there is the old colorsound fuzz-wah, than a ibanez model and a schaller ... but i never had the chance to try one out. i have a wah and a fuzz, but it would be a great option to have a fuzz-wah: to step on it and fuzz is there! and i can go uuu-wuooouuu-iii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alteredsounds Posted May 16, 2006 Members Share Posted May 16, 2006 The old Yellow Colorsound Fuzz-Wah rocks but the best I've heard is an old Morley Fuzz Wah. Weighed 18 tons but sounded ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sir H C Posted May 16, 2006 Members Share Posted May 16, 2006 Ibanez Standard Fuzz/wah. Best Super Fuzz fuzz and a decent wah. Or the Roland Double Beat. Oh crap, how can I forget the Foxx Fuzz Wah? That is probably the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jonny guitar Posted May 16, 2006 Members Share Posted May 16, 2006 I have an old DeArmond Thunderbolt that I absolutely love. Clean it is very colorsoundish but with a more swampy sound to it...kick the fuzz in and it oozes tone. Really nice smooth fuzz sounds. Cocked positions are amazing. It is really thick and can do phaser sounds really well too. It just nails the Stones Heartbreaker rhythm guitar so perfectly that I would swear it was used instead of an overdriven amp and phaser.

Members zinzin Posted May 17, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 17, 2006 why "impractical"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bieke Posted May 17, 2006 Members Share Posted May 17, 2006 Originally posted by zinzin why "impractical"? you need to flick a toggle on the side of the pedal to get the fuzz and/or geisha going, and it seems flimsy, fragile, plastic feel (but it's pretty sturdy) and it has controls on the side, you can't see how these are set and even using the pedal as a stand alone pedal, but, I managed to solve the switchless wah problem, that I found most impractical, for years I simply stood on the pedal to switch the wah on (that's why I know it's sturdy after all), it took 3 years before I noticed the tiniest switch that was almost at the same level as the housing, I raised it a little (there even is an adjusting screw inside) and now it switches comfortably ...which reminds me, I still need to take the Geisha out of my sig, since it replaced the Budda Wah on my board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members zinzin Posted May 17, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 17, 2006 yes, they pop up every now and then on ebay. i was very undecided if to bid on those or not 'cause i never had the chance to try 'em out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bieke Posted December 28, 2010 Members Share Posted December 28, 2010 meanwhile I sold my JEN Double Soundand got a Colorsound Supa Fuzz Wah Swell pedal insteadthe fuzz is a bit low volume, so it needs a clean boost to pump it upbut it does sound good at its own, just gets lost in the mixI also still have the Jacques Singing Geisha, I adjusted the on/off switch and now it is very comfortable to play, it's a little noisy in my chain, and it sounds better with batteries than with a powersupply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted December 28, 2010 Members Share Posted December 28, 2010 The Electro Harmonix Muff Fuzz Crying Tone Wah, because the sweep is super wide, it has 3 different range options, it has the ability to reverse the treadle, the pedal is humongous like an aircraft carrier, and last but not least... it is vintage EHX, so it has ALL the mojo. http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=7468131 I plan to pick up a vintage Morley Tel Ray Power Fuzz Wah when I can find one for about $100.

Members fatusstratus Posted December 28, 2010 Members Share Posted December 28, 2010 There's the fender reissue with the "swivel plate" of fuzz on top of the treadle for wah haven't played one, it's there, but that's about all I can offer on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seifukusha Posted December 28, 2010 Members Share Posted December 28, 2010 [video=youtube;3N0edIYD5fo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3N0edIYD5fo ZINZIN!~ WUT UP?!? Hows Johns Children?!?! i love my double beat. it cleans up nicely, has a fuzzface, big muff, and a kind of dark tonebender sound, and the wah is synthy. theres a volume drop, but theres a mod to fix that. got it for 100 or so back in 2000 in Hiroshima.
