vox wah pedal fasel and icar for weener?

[danwelsh]

hi guys....my buddy gave me a vox volume pedal he has no use for and I plan to put a weener wah 2 in it instead.....does anyone know if I can reuse its fasel and icar in the weener?

Is there an inductor in there?

my bad Paul.....I meant fasel....or are an inductor and fasel the same thing.....if so yes. It looks exactly like this....

okay I feel dumb now.....I never built a wah circuit before or looked inside a wah pedal but apparently my buddy thought it was a volume pedal and it's actually a wah pedal(no bottom plate).....I didn't even plug it in to try it...else I woulda figured that out after I soldered one of the cap legs back in that's pulled out....but I'm still replacing it with Brian's PCB so I think I answered my own question LOL.

Fasel is a type of inductor.  Yes you can use that inductor in a wheener.
The cap that had a leg pulled up was probably inentional to make it act as a volume pedal which is common mod to put on a switch
