The Dunlop Jimi Hendrix JH-1 Wah is a signature wah pedal designed to recreate the vocal, vowel-like sweep Hendrix used to define psychedelic-era wah tone, built on Dunlop's Cry Baby wah heritage. It delivers a wide, expressive sweep range with a voicing tuned for the searing, textured wah character heard across Hendrix's recordings, aimed at players wanting an authentic vintage-inspired wah experience tied directly to one of the effect's most iconic users.
The Vox VRM-1 Real McCoy Wah is a faithful recreation of the legendary 1960s Clyde McCoy wah, the first wah pedal ever made, developed with input honoring the original creators. It is renowned for its iconic nasal voice and emphasized midrange, imparting a warm, melodic, vocal quality ideal for expressive lead guitar. Subtle modification of the inductor coils enables that classic nasal tone, and larger carbon film resistors with carefully selected capacitors deliver a warm, smooth sweep. It runs on battery with long life. Rather than a bright or aggressive modern wah, it captures vintage warmth and a singing midrange. It suits players chasing authentic 1960s wah tones, classic rock and blues lead expression, and a warm, melodic, vocal wah character in a vintage-styled pedal.
