My very first wah pedal! Still setting up and fine tuning the dip-switches but it's all put together. It sounds awesome but I've never played with a wah before so I have nothing to compare it to ?.
This was a raw Smallbear Expression Pedal Kit that I painted with Rust-Oleum Hammered rattle can then assembled. Color is Copper. If you go down that route, here's a forum post with painting tips and techniques. Every step of the way went smoothly albeit time consuming, especially aligning and crimping the molex fasteners, which was a first for me. The only hole in the enclosure I drilled was for the LED.
The pot is a Chasetone Tru Talk that I got from Smallbear and I used a red fasel inductor. Doing some forum research, I found a post by Chuck D. Bones saying that replacing the aluminum electrolytic in C4 with a tantalum of the same value "will produce an audible improvement" so I did it because he's smart.
If anyone has built one and has a preferred dip-switch setting please let me know! Thanks ?
