Thinking about doing a Griffin Analog Wah ......

I have a standard crybaby wah thats begging for some upgrades ... Would be stoked to have a Griffin mod

that's how I'm going to start ..... upgrading existing wah chassis's ...... most likely stick with original crybaby's ... the vox's are physically set up a little different inside ... but the circuits are almost identical .... but I'll start off doing the GCB95's ... I think
 
If you are going to be asked to play leads? I'd bring a wah for sure

If you aren't maybe it wont be necessary
Me, bass and drums. I wrote most of the music. We have a lot improvisation. Songs are usually under three minutes with short guitar solos in most of them.
Small place with a small stage.
Single channel NMV amp. A prototype I am becoming familiar with. Everything controlled by the guitar.
If the wife doesn't keep me too busy maybe I will mess around with a few pedals today.

I'm very interested in what Wayne is doing.

I would probably be bringing a wah for sure, as well as a couple other things depending on the volume 🤷‍♂️

Gonna use my gcb95 for a Halloween cover show & after that I can box it up & ship it out to RI ! Not gonna need a crybaby for my normal band stuff on account of that sweet GA cocked wah/delay coming in the mail :D
 
My classic setup was boost, wah, and something swirling out front - mostly flange - and then we did something where I wanted volume swells and got into that for awhile. Great, simple setup. I'm definitely a wah abuser at times.......don't ban me for it! lol

I'd be interested. I haven't done any of the various pedals you've done, but I'd be interested here. Where are you going to source chassis? I've wanted to build one for a while but can't track down anyone sell a chassis anymore. I used to see them, but it's been a minute,
Amplified parts sells them ...
 
I feel like a US-made wah in the general vein of the JAM Wahcko would be desirable.

It always just seems to sit right.
 
My teese has been rock solid, but I also don't use it much. Amazing you had all those issue, but glad you had the Vox to save the day.

I used to think I couldn't play live without a wah, now I can't remember the last time I used one live. I do like to mess with the wah at home, so cool to part it at a place to cut through, but its hard with PB space on my gigging boards is at a premium.
Geoffrey said at that time that he attributed a bad shipment of switches to the issues players were having. but switch issues aside i could never find the sweet top end in the teese wahs that the old vox had.

I currently have an xotic xw1 which sounds right to my ears and is so simple even a wife can use one😁



some of my friends use the CAE as it seems to pair with high gain well. recently tried the jam wahko m2 and it was ok but too extreme of a sweep for me even at the lowest range setting




i’m not a big fan of high gain + wah making white noise whiter. mixed lots of kids with rectos and zakk, vai, JP and morley wahs which probably traumatized me🤣
 
I am quietly looking for a Dunlop type that is switchless. Cantrell type in tone.
I currently have a Cantrell Wah on my board that kicked my RMC and Fulltone Deluxe to the closet. Something in that vain would be very appealing.
