The JAM Pedals Seagull is a cocked-wah pedal, reproducing the fixed midrange peak you get by leaving a wah treadle parked at one position rather than sweeping it. That is a specific and much-imitated sound — the nasal, vocal midrange of a stopped wah — and building it as a fixed circuit removes the treadle and the need to hold a position. JAM build in Greece with hand-painted enclosures. It suits players who use a parked-wah tone as a voice rather than an effect they sweep.
The Vox VRM-1 Real McCoy is a meticulous recreation of the 1967 Vox wah circuit from Vox (Korg Japan), designed to reproduce the exact inductor-based wah character of the most iconic Vox wah design — the legendary "Real McCoy" original that defined the wah sound heard on countless late-1960s recordings. It captures the distinctive nasal midrange tone and vocal cry that established the wah pedal as a standard guitar effect.
