*many videos up, with more coming, see below or message us for the direct links.**
musicians have told us that their favorite vintage wah they ever owned was a 70s colorsound. and for good reason: they have a unique throaty sound and bright 'squish' in the top end that is unlike any other wah.
NOT JUST a crybaby or vox clone, the colorsound was a derivative of the early Marshall Supa Wah, a British take on wah- quite different from the vox clones in many ways.
PROBLEM: a lot of the originals are very worn out. thin shell metal, worn out axles , scratchy pots.
solution! now, we have duplicated and improved this circuit for present day RELIABLE use. ROAD, stage or studio.
we have rebuilt, modded and restored 500+ vintage wahs. among these were many colorsounds and musonics ( US made version of same circuit). we have measured , played, and experimented for 3 years to perfect this circuit.
colorsounds are famous for their awesome musical sweep. a '70s bonanza of wah delight! this wah has it.
features:
- unique to the deluxe, special tie dye graphics , body and volume knobs on the side.
-joe gagan handwound inductor, designed to replicate the 70s colorsound bobbin winds. Accurate!
-trubypass.
-Quality bypass switch, pop resistant input ground wiring. ( may vary from photos)
-NOS hotpotz1 100k wah pot for classic quacky feel and taper.
~NEW gagan V2 PCB, now using real REAN/ neutrik full metal jacks, the old switchcraft style but with better wafers.
- internal 3 way dip switch for frequency select. 7 possible combos, , regular, deep , deeper and many in between.
marked with the Garcia '72 setting so you can always get back to the original tone
-
-3 trimpots:
marked with our preferred setting so you can always get back to the original tone
1. input volume, (vol 1)
2. out volume ( vol 2)
3.bias
these all make the wah fully adjustable for volume matching and full growl. this allows you to tailor the response to any pickups or guitar, bass ,etc. ~~~anything from stock colorsound sweetness all the way to funkified nasty growl ( and many in between!). Jerry Garcia settings are set by Joe before shipping and marked for future reference.
-special vintage low gain/ low noise silicon transistors specially selected for correct '70s low gain- no more harsh highs.
-expensive metallized poly and other high quality caps in key tone path locations.
-standard 9V power jack for use with power supply, also uses 9v battery with high quality clip.
-BONUS! unique output arrangement in this circuit works EXCELLENT going into any fuzz without the need for crappy buffers, which in our opinion ruin classic wah tone. Note: this wah is final assembled to order. All parts in stock. Please allow 12 business days build time. Thank you.
warranty, 5 years on all parts, lifetime on assembled labor.
