I can say EXCELLENT. If you can find one, take it home. First, I'm looking for a wah wah and I saw this used rack for sale in the web so I called to guy to try it. It is the one I'm looking for. I don't know anything about a wah just go and try it out. I've try a morley bradhorsie II and tremolti. Also I have
a boss aw1 which can select the brand. No one can beat this wah.

This rackmount wah is fairly easy to use...you have a two band parametric eq and three frequency center buttons to choose from.This unit is the precursor to the DCR-1SR. Slash used to use this unit in the early days of Guns n'Roses.

I play a les paul to the DCR to a boss ge7 and to a marshall silver jubilee 2555 to a marshall vintage 30's 4x12 cabinet.
The sounds from the hi and mid frequency centers are nice but the low freq is unusable for guitar unless it is modified with a certain capacitor to give it the sound of a JH-1, which dunlop did for me. The sound quality when you play clean is terrible. You hear a slight but noticible distortion...otherwise for dirty slash wah sounds it's real good.

I've only had a problem with the foot controler input jack.

They took too long to modify my unit and check it for problems.

I play GNR and rolling stones type music. Overall the unit is great and I would buy it again if it were stolen. The only real problem is that it's hard to get a decent clean sound when it is on.
