The Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight is a cocked talking wah and fuzz pedal that combines two expressive filters with a built in fuzz. A CRY mode provides a traditional wah filter while a TALK mode uses a formant filter for vowel like, voice box sounds, and a knob sets the cocked filter position for that fixed, parked wah tone without a treadle. The onboard fuzz can be placed before or after the filter, or removed entirely, for added grind and growl. From funky parked wah rhythm to vocal, talking textures and fuzzed out leads, it is compact and characterful. It suits funk, rock, psychedelic and experimental players who want fixed wah, talk box style tones and fuzz in one small pedal.
The Vox V847A is a reissue of the classic 1960s and 1970s Vox wah, delivering the same vocal growl era rock guitarists relied on, with a warm, throaty character that's slightly darker than many modern wahs. As the treadle rocks, the sweep morphs smoothly between a low-pass and high-pass filtering character, almost analog-synth-like in its motion, giving it real vocal expressiveness on lead lines. It suits rock, funk, and blues players wanting an authentic vintage Vox wah voice for both cutting leads and clean, funky rhythm chop.
