so,i havent been on in awhile, about a month or so. but i wanna get a wah pedal, not sure which brand would work best with a big muff. plus, i wanna know what brand of wah j mascis used. help?
-
Probably a Dunlop. That's just a guess, though. The Weeping Demon seems to be the most popular

thanks man, i've been reading into it, but i'm torn between the vox and dunlop. I'm just listening to people play them until i can go out to the guitar shop and try some.
-
Yeah, I've seen Vox wahs used pretty frequently, also. I'm not a huge fan of wahs myself, but I might pick one up someday.

my friend had a vox wah, he didnt like it, but then again he plays metal, and personally im not one for metal. they're quite fun to play around with.
-
My brother runs (on his bass) a big muff into a crybaby bass, and it sounds pretty cool. But it's a bass, so I don't know what would be best for you.
-
i use a dimebag darrel ceybaby form hell
wll the crybabies are AMAZING, and their not much at your local GC
-
Crybabies are pretty good, but you may want to adjust the range on them.
-
I don't like dimebag. And I'm not the best with working on pedals. So not sure how to adjust the range. A short range would be nice by the way.
-
Oh, I didn't mean a dimebag crybaby, I wouldn't buy that. Just a regular one. To adjust the range you've usually got to open up the pedal and adjust the pots, but if you don't want a large range then you should be fine with stock.

Could swear I saw the phrase "don't be a dimebag crybaby" when I came in here, but I guess not.
That is probably pretty harsh to hear for some people.
-
From what people say the standard cheapest Crybaby is pretty much not very good. I think the Vox is better for a stock wah, I hear the Crybaby with knobs that adjust the range and stuff is good too.
-
This is just me, but I'd recommend saving your money and using it for something a bit more useful and/or versatile. Wah pedals sound great for funk and the occasional classic rock solo, and... well, that's about it.
If I'm going to actually give the kind of advice you're looking for, I've got a Vox wah that I like pretty well. It may not be the most useful effect I've got, but it does that one trick very well.

I love this site.
-
Thanks that guitargeek link was quite useful. J mascis sure does love fuzz....
-
It is as cool as it is frustrating (at least, to a fellow with no money to spend on effects and new amps).
I suspect that the day I can resist assembling fantasy rigs is the day my chops will start to get really good.
-
I feel your pain, i make a list of everything i really want, then wallow in my own sorrow. It's pretty fun actually.
-
You two are exactly the same as me. To prove my point, I am looking at Danelectro effect pedals right now on another tab in Firefox.

I almost bought the sprink king pedal by them. God I'm a moron. :cry:
-
I already own a ProCo TurboRAT Distortion/Overdrive, but I'm looking at getting a Danelectro Daddy-O overdrive, too. It's cheap and it sounds hella good I guess. On that Guitar Geek website, I looked up Seam and found what their guitarist plays, and it's almost exactly what I want for effects/have. I also love the guitar tone from Headsparks.
-
I usually hate reading guitar mags. It depresses me even more. I need a job...
-
You know, as much as I prefer playing Fenders, it sure feels great to whip out mention of my Gibson at times like these.
Man you should've seen how far those puppies flew when I kicked them.

Dude was sucking up attention from better, more interesting guitarists anyway. The fucker with the gun did metal a favour, really. Certainly did Pantera's bank account a favour. And Dean. Dean did well off that, too. Oh man, and the name droppers. They love that shit.
Sorry, it needed to be said.
-
I think "did metal a favor" is a little much, but then again the first thing out of my mouth when I heard about it was "Oh no Dimebag Darrell got Dimebag dead."
The man could play a lot of notes very quickly.

Because people dying is such a great thing!

Hitler. Mussolini. Stalin. Kurt Cobain. I could go on.

I never said that, nor even implied it. I was merely speaking my mind. Really, I don't even mean to disrespect Dimebag because I quite liked him as a soloist and he seemed like a very personable, pleasant man. That doesn't mean, however, that I'm going to tip-toe around my observations.
Dimebag Darrel died, and a lot of people benefited from it.
-
J's current kick is the Budda Budwah or whatever the hell it's called. From the descriptions it actually sounds pretty great. In my experience Crybabies suck.

Those seem to be hit-and-miss. About half of the pedals (the Daddy-O, the EQ, the flanger) are amazing and an absolute steal. Others are complete crap and fall apart quickly. I don't know what to make of them.
-
Dunlop Tri-wah. One of the most expensive one's I've found, but it has everything i want. Time to save up. You all have been no help, although you all amused me quite a bit. Anyway, we shall derail the thread into a talk of wah pedals. Go.
