Hi guys, I am in process of buying this vintage wah, so what do you think about it? It is actually wah/volume pedal and it is in very good condition.. Picture is of the actual pedal..
Few links..

When it comes to wah pedals, its hard to go wrong with somthing that has so many mojo parts in it. And since it still works, you know its built to last. Better to get it and perhaps sell it later, than to not get it and always wish that you had.

That thing looks sweet! Worse case scenario, it sounds like crap and you build your own wah in your awesome vintage shell!

Grab it if the price is right... should'nt be hard to flip if it does'nt makes it for you.

Thanks for answers, I thought that I buy it and then sell it, if I was unsatisfied with it. But it seems these wah pedals don't sound that good at all :/
Cortex is having one on his bench and he told me that is impossible to get rid of noise and scratchiness of the pot. It is dual gang pot. Beside that, I really didn't found even one clip on the youtube of pedal sounding good.
Seems like I'll pass this, because of my unemployed status.. It is bit risky to spend money for something I'll probably be disappointed with.
Thanks ones again..
Cheers

I had bought one a couple of yeara ago and sold it. The sounds were ok but the plastic enclose had a flimsy feel about it (although it had lasted already that long so it's sturdy) The action of the pedal was very narrow too. Might be a nice circuit to play with and build into a better enclosure.

Thanks for input, I thought this circuit was bit closer sounding to classic wahs, but it seems it is not. Bit dissapointed with it..
