Topic: Has anybody seen this new wah?

http://www.ehx.com/products/crying-tone

This is the coolest wah pedal I've ever seen.  I think its going to be my next one.  Only issue I can see is I have to have my foot on it to keep it in the position I want or a sweet spot if you will.

Sounds cool but after watching the vid you can not get all those tones on the fly.

Was looking at this as well, how would you fix it to a pedalboard?

Re: Has anybody seen this new wah?

I'm not sure I like it not having a fixed base and it constantly moving the lead around...something to have off and far from the board...
Not for me.

Re: Has anybody seen this new wah?

12 years ago I bought a Jimi Hendrix Dunlop signature model for the sum of $145.  It was a fantastic pedal and to this day was the best wah sound I ever had.  After 8 years of use and living with pets my pedal was wore out.  I took it to a music shop and they offered to repair it, but the cost was going to be pretty high the pot was gummed up with dog hair and the gears were stripped.  I was told that it would be easier just to buy a new wah.  So I got a standard cry baby.  Sucked.  Sold it and bought a used Cry Baby Classic.  Better but the gear was stripped.  Later on I learned how to repair my own stuff because I'm hard on things and constantly break stuff.  When I saw this had no moving parts I was sold!  You can't attach it to a pedal board, and you couldn't use short leads either, but for a guy like me that uses minimal effects anyway it would be perfect!  Only wish I could lock in a sweet spot like a Cry Baby or a Vox.  Price point is pretty nice too.
