You have brought to life 12 years old thread, and very interesting one. Still valid IMO. I owned/ checked all the worlds wahs. The one I have finally chosen is this :  http://www.glab.com.pl/in.../efekty/wowee-wah-ww-1

I kinda think the magic is in the mind and hands of the performing artist, the writer of the piece and many times the mind of the producer. I know some folks who can take a solo on a montgomery wards guitar and make it stand the test of time. 
 
But, Crybaby for hardware.   Personally - I use an H9 for this live with the stage rig, and a line 6 when dinking around with friends while writing.  I like to keep line runs short, really short.  Might be sacrilegious to some but it works for me.
 
 
I understand the tone conscious folks really really care about the details, and I appreciate that they do, it helps me learn and appreciate our heritage and sonic pallet available - thank you all.  However, in the music I perform - the nuance of a wah is lost through the configuration of amps, mics, desks, mixes, engineering desires, stacks and room interaction.

no such thing as a dead thread when it comes to music! Well, I suppose I could come up with something, but...

I've owned a large number of wah-wah pedals (actually, still own most of them - don't ask).

The pedal that lives on the pedal board is a Teese RMC-3. I just love this thing, although it took ages to dial in the sound I wanted - make that sounds. I've considered "upgrading" to the one with external controls, but I'm just too cheap, and I don't play out often enough to rationalize the expense<G>!

In the studio I also have a couple of dinosaurs - a Vox Wah from my youth - the one with the picture on the bottom plate, and a Maestro Boomerang. Nothing I've tried can duplicate the sound of either one. So I drag them out from time to time and just have a blast.

While I would heartily recommend anyone shopping for a wah to check out the Teese pedals, like everything else it is a matter of personal preference/taste - there really is no "best" wah. Too bad too!

I've had a Teese and loved it, but at some point sold it.  I actually don't recall which model, but it had some knobs on the side for settings.  The one analog wah I still currently own is a Wilson Wah, and I think it is actually just a bit more flexible even than the Teese I had, in take it to the extreme settings I like for driving a hi-gain sound and even beyond that point, but I can I also tone it back for a more traditional wah that works great for clean or lo-gain sounds as well.  I highly recommend checking these out.  I know people tend to love the Cry Baby and Vox stuff for it's traditional, been doing this for 50 years type stuff, but IMO the Wilson and Teese stuff are both on a different level overall.

That said, I am really currently using a wah block in my Fractal Axe-FX II (while I await delivery on the new Axe-FX III), and I can honestly say that I have an easier time getting the sounds I want out of it than any of the analog wahs I've used, and once it's dialed in for the patch I have, the settings are in there, saved in memory... no knobs on the side for you to bump when you're transporting it and then have to try to find that sweet spot when you get to a jam or gig.

I love my old vox. I've owned several, but that's the one I never got rid of...

I use a Vox V847. It's got a nice sound.


+1 for the Vox V847
