TRUE BYPASS TO ELIMINATE TONE SUCKING
Tone sucking is the most common complaint about wah pedals. The design of the
most common "Crybaby" wah and of the Vox reissues is a throwback to earlier years
when true bypass was not considered to be an absolute requirement in pedal design.
The input of the wah circuit is connected to the guitar signal all the time, and the
loading of the wah input affects the treble of the guitar signal disproportionately,
giving a deader sound even when the wah is "bypassed".
There are two ways around this. One is to completely disconnect the wah board
from the guitar signal when the wah pedal is bypassed by changing the Single Pole
Double Throw (SPDT) switch that is stock in most wahs for a Double Pole Double
Throw (DPDT) footswitch. This converts the stock wah pedal to true bypass,
and tone sucking is eliminated.
Mods include

• Super bright LED
• True bypass
• Mid range boost
• Volume gain when pedal is engaged
• New pot fitted (ICAR taper 100k)
• Adjustable "Q" to make wah sound more vocal
• Fasel or Whipple inductor fitted
• Replacement PCB
• Input, output jack replacement (Take the jacks off the PCB Crybaby GCB95 only)
• Drop in full wah refit (just drop it in, includes all the inside parts of a wah, pot, PCB, switch, jacks, wiring the lot)
