Dunlop JH-1S Jimi Hendrix Wah Wah Special

As with most Wah pedals, there is very little to controling it. Great sound is there as soon as you step forward and engage the switch. I bought mine used in perfect condition, but there was no manual. If you can't figure it out, you may have a problem.

I use a Kramer Nightswan as my main guitar. It is Very warm sounding. My amp is a Fender Super Six Reverb, which I have built a 2 x 12 cabinet for. I Use a DOD Tec-4 for all of the other effects. The pedal was built to the specifications of Hendrix's stuff and duplicates the pedals from the old Thomas Organs. This unit has a much wider sweep of tonal range than the standard "Crybaby" Wah. It has a special pot that allows it to run from very deep muddy wah to high pitch screaming. It blends with the tube amp to give that overall warm sound I want. Yes, you can sound like Hendrix or Slash with this. The catch is that you still must be able to play like them.

I have used this pedal on stage a lot. It is just about as bullet proof as stuff gets. Pick one up and you'll find that it weighs quite a bit. The battery lasts a very long time, even when you forget and leave the cord plugged in. I see no reason why it could not be used without a backup.

I have not delt with them, but they do have a nice web site. Sorry I don't remember the address. Do a search for Dunlop+effects or something like that.

I play anything from 70's hard rock to Slayer and Megadeth. This is a very vesitile wah. I have played for almost 12 years. I would definately buy one again. I basicly compared it to the standard Crybaby from Dunlop which I had experience with. Shop around ! I almost spent $120.00 for a standard one, but I found this one used with the plastic still covering the nameplate!! Some kid bought it and never used it, so he traded it back in. These list for about $150.00 or so on Dunlop's website.
