Members Defenestration Posted April 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 By the way...i stumbled apon a purple budda (spelling?) wah when i was browsing thru a local music store, didn't try it out because i was too content with a Diezel Herbert and a Mesa Mark IV Has anyone tried this particular wah? I'd like to get some opinions and maybe a brief description, how they compare to other wah's..etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members book_of_lies777 Posted April 14, 2006 Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 I LOVE my Vox 847 wah!I didn't care at all for the Bad Horsie I tried out, and the Dunlop didn't "grab" me, ya know? It went "wah", but... eh...as always, YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members karmacowboy67 Posted April 14, 2006 Members Share Posted April 14, 2006 I play mostly soul and R'n'B stuff with one band and fusion stuff with another. I need a wah that sounds good clean, so I had to retire my Bad Horsie go once I bought a George Dennis GD30. The GD30 sounds damn good when playing clean or crunchy, it's optical and quite a bit smaller than the Bad Horsie that has a huge housing. You turn it on as you would a Cry Baby, which is just about the worst way of doing that. Did they sit there and go "ok, so we have this sound... why don't we come up with a really inconvenient way of turning it on and off". Still it sounds so good that I'm considering getting an A/B box for it... The Bad Horsie's range was wider in some ways, but a lot more aggressive also making it the better choice for high gain stuff only. I loved the Bad Horsie's switchless operations: Step on it and away we go! Let go of the pedal and it turns of. Unless you tend to use your wah as a fixed filter Morleys switchless operation is THE way to go! Other than that I found the Bad Horsie to add gain when engaged - not a cool feature when you wanna play clean - you'll always get some dirt added with this wah. Finally if you're into true bypass you'll want to know that the Bad Horsie's bypass sucks tone, much more so than the GD30. Neither have true bypass and both are optical meaning you'll never have to deal with scratchy pots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
