I hate, hate, hate having to switch a wah an and off the answer is easy for me, Bad Horsey or CB 95Q. I prefer the 95 and I love the added gain boost, really fattens it up.
 
My Dunlop rackwah I had the pedals modded to switchless by Dunlop.

Been using the Morley Bad Horsie wah for years. Going to try the Tremonti wah sometime this week.

Can't go back to the switch-type wah. It just feels weird to click on and off.

I agree. I also like the fact that it springs back to heal down on its own. Other modded switchless wahs may turn on mid sweep (depending on where it was left) and sound too abrupt when its engaged.

Ive tried so many wahs like may of u guys , had the silvermachine too... it was cool! I hate running cables to n fro the rack.... I like some other pedals but then the bloody switch! switchless is so nice..weeping demon was a very nice wah, but then u put a lot of these up to a good crybaby aka whichever n nothing seams to cry like a real crybaby...

i want a wah somewhere between tremonti wah and zakk wydle.. so many lose something in the sweep either not enuff quack or high n shrill so i guess this quest goes on n on.....

but this new gull wah has my attention!

I really dig the ease of use with a switchless wah but have found that most of the wahs that I like the tone of just dont have that feature.I pick up a GLab wah pad and now any wah I want to use is switchless as well as true bypass.Very cool device and I dont know how I ever got on without it.Another cool thing about it is that you can set the wah in a sweet spot and press the edge of the pad with your toe and not worry about moving the rocker.Great for shenker tones.
 
Joe Bonamassa Sig. Great sweep. Still trying to find the perfect tone with it off. If you like darkness, it's for you.

Yes.Mine hasnt given me any trouble at all.You can use it for a lot more than just a wah pedal.If you had a certain group of effects that you wanted to kick in for solos or what ever, just chain them off of the pad and press the pad to engage them.I use mine with a Clyde deluxe and I really like not having to stomp it to engage the effect.
 
Got the dunlop rack wah. Was using a g-lab wowee wah and really liked it but it wasn't the end all be all wah for my ears. Havent messed with the rack wah that much as im busy with college but from what ive done so far i definitely think i'll find "the" wah tone for me in there somewhere.
 
Bad Horsie 2..its pretty cool. 2 types of wah, one with a slight boost on a controlable freq.
 
I feel stupid, I had no idea Crybaby had a switchless wah. I just figured the 95Q was their 95th signature wah.

Ah well, I've got one on the way now!
 
I have a 95q. It's my Fav Dunlop. It's switchless. Q control. boost. Volume. But I do like zakk wah too. It's nasty sounding!
 
CAE here. Nice pedal, well built, but I really do wish it had more travel. Doesn't feel quite right under my foot for some reason.
 
Necro-bump, lol. Just wanted to share this with you guys/gals. If you haven't tried a Wilson wah, do yourself a favor. One of the nicest, well-built and most versatile wahs out there.
 
I have the Cantrell. I returned the Joe B for it. It has a sweep adjustment. I keep it rolled back about half way. That keeps me in the lower range Wah tone. It's supposed to act like a standard crybaby with this dial pinned. Still, no shrill highs, very throaty and heavy. I love it. I also want the GLabs true bypass Wah pad.
 
I have the Dime wah which is super adjustable. Most of the time though I use a Bad Horsie II. I just like the switchless design so I can get on and off it quickly for subtle parts.
 
Fun fact. Prior to his own signature Wah, Cantrell used the Dime Crybaby. The Dime is a solid Wah.
