And now for something completely different…
Jul 9, 2010 wah wah pedals
You might have thought there wasn’t much more that could be done to a Wah Wah pedal, especially with perennial classics like the Jim Dunlop Cry Baby to fall back on.
Well, think again, because the crazy minds over at Zvex have come up with something so special that you’ll literally by left footloose and fancy free when you’ve plugged this one in.
The thing that makes the Zvex Wah Probe so unique is its Therimin-based copper plate, which replaces the traditional pedal expression you’re used to putting your foot on. What this means is, as soon as you get your foot (or any other object) near the plate, the wah starts to engage. The sounds this can produce are endless, especially when you start passing movements quickly in front of the plate.
The wah probe also comes with what Zvex call a “Super hard on” boost with a dial you can crank up to breaking point.
All in all, if you want something more than a little different, both in playing style and output, the Wah Probe is the best place to start experimenting. There’s just nothing else quite like it.
Start experimenting with crazy sounds, buy the ZVEX Wah Probe at Gapco today.

Wah Wah Pedals Stocked by GAPco
Jun 16, 2010 wah wah pedals
The wah wah pedal is a classic, and for good reason.
But as the GAPco range demonstrates, there’s always room for reinvention. Just have a look at the Jim Dunlop Cry Baby From Hell. With Pantera’s Dimebag Darrell helping out on the design, it really is as hardcore as it looks, complete with five way selector and kick-in boost.
Then there’s the straightforward simplicity of the Gig FX Kilowah which offers four on-board wah effects without the need to programme or scroll through patches.
That’s just a taster of wah-wah’s you can buy from GAPco. Visit the full range of wah wah pedals to buy at GAPco
