Whether you enjoy the vintage quack of a 1967 Clyde McCoy
wah pedal, the deep throaty tones of a Macari wah or you
simply love the deep synth tones of a more modern wah. The
Rippah Q-Wah, modeled after the infamous Maestro BG-2wah circuit, allows you to dial in your favorite wah tones via
the easy to access control knobs. Making your heavenly wah
tone that you hear in your head just a turn of a knob away.
The low end of the Rippah Q-Wah has a slightly different
characteristic to it than your average wah circuit. There is a little
more throat and growl in the low end which makes it ideal for
the player that really wants to cut through the mix. Another
advantage to the Rippah Q-wah is if you want to clean it up a
bit and tame the growl of the pedal, you can by simply tuning it
out. With just about every wah sound imaginable at your finger
tips the Rippah Q-Wah is sure to become an effective weapon
in the studio and on stage as well.
Every Rippah Q-Wah comes standard with a Depth of the
sweep control at the front of the pedal. This allows you to dial in
how deep the sweep in the pedal goes. While it is rather subtle
from the mid point to the max it adds a little more throat to the
depth of the sweep if you max it out and just the opposite when
turning it down.
The Rippah Q-Wah also comes with either a six or twelve
position Q position switch. Depending on which model you
choose, that allows you to adjust the position of the Q in the
sweep. You can adjust it to a deep synth like growl to a high
almost envelope filter type of sound.
Also included is a growl knob at the heel of the pedal. This
allows you to adjust the amount of bass and gain that is in the
circuit. So whether you like to have a lot of deep throat to the
sound of the wah or you like a little more quack to your sound
the growl knob will help you dial in that sound you hear in your
head.
Every Rippah Q-Wah comes standard with a built in fuzz buffer.
What this means is that the Rippah Q-Wah will work just as well
in front of a fuzz pedal.
Inside the pedal you will notice a small blue trimmer. This is a
volume control that controls the out put of the pedal so if you
like your pedal at unity gain or you like to boost it up a little for a
searing lead the volume control will allow you to get there.
The Rippah Q-Wah operates off of a 2.1mm center negative
power supply or a high quality alkaline battery. It comes with a
one year warranty on parts and labor. All of our pedals are true
bypass and are built right here in the U.S.A.
