With custom-made variable resistors, hand-selected capacitors and inductors, and 3D scanning technology, it precisely replicates the legendary wah in look, feel and sound.

However, an unintended but music-changing use with electric guitar turned the Wah pedal into a vital tool for renowned artists such as Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton, driving the creation of now-legendary performances and songs.
