Hotrod Clyde in a nice gagan artistic top version.

sweet sounds, vocal, fluttery , and responsive to your touch. great clean and also takes OD, distortion or fuzz really well.
features:
NEW upgrade: the output caps are now paper in oil NOS paper in oil  output caps for a warmer, more harmonically rich tone. in side by side controlled tests, 2 identical hotrod clydes ( exc output caps), the one with the paper in oil won the tone test hands down.

-mostly new parts, we use dunlop donors for our pcb, shell, and harness.

- 60s vox voiced inductor borrowed from our italia line of wahs. electronically patterned after the famous filmcan 60s vox wahs. bright, throaty, musical.(differs from photos) 

-NEW 316 style alpha made ( better QC than carling in our experience) dpdt tru-bypass switch. tru-bypass wire carefully woven into the stock dunlop harness.

- '70s 'long body' 2n3904 transistor at Q1 gives a different response than modern harsh transistors. we replace all critical tone components for the real old style tone.

-brand new hotpotz2 100k wah pot. super durable, and gives the familiar 'quack' and fast ramp that people love in crybabies all the way back to 1970.

-special caps and circuit mods, joe gagan's special recipe, developed from modding, building and designing hundreds of wah pedals. light years beyond the standard internet mod tricks.

-dunlop input buffer is removed, no longer needed with our bypass circuit. this gets the sound back to the original 60s unbuffered 'pure' wah tone. the buffer is another factor in adding harshness to the highs in modern wahs. leave that to the metal-heads!

-TWO onboard trimmers to totally dial in your tone:

1. input volume trimmer for volume matching and HOTrodded wah tones! allows tailoring to single coils, humbuckers, or other pedals in your chain.
2. bias - sets the amount of growls and low end. works beautifully in tandem with the input volume.
** these trims are factory set to the 'gagan tune' and marked so you can put them back later if needed.

- standard 9v power input jack with filtering and reverse polarity protection

try it, no risk. 30 day cheerful return policy in effect.
