maybe one of you can use this for a wah clone or something?
It's in pretty nice condition:

That will probably hit at least $150 in that condition with the cord and all...I did have
a custom wah put into one I got a while ago cheap that sounds great.

The treadle sweep on those is really narrow. Narrower than the Vox Clydes and V846s. The UK Grey Vox has a much longer sweep equal to that of the Fulltone Wahs. I believe only the US made prototypes used that style enclosure. If anyone really wants one of those Vox enclosures(like the one in the auction), I have one lying around I'll sell for cheap. I had Brad rehouse my Grey Vox clone into an enclosure that works much better for the circuit.

I disagree...treadle sweep is a bit more than either of my Clydes, when you set the footswitch
height just right, and because of the enclosure and treadle, you get more room at the heel, though yes, not as much as the UK version.

Speaking of UK version, he's my Stu grey Vox wah replica(ex volume pedal) after a little trip to get fixed cos I broked it... now with groovy stickers. :cool:

This volume pedal enclosure is exactly the same as the UK grey Wah's which is why I bought it. Not much of a wah user, but love the sound and look of these. :badlove:

Not mine. My Clyde and 2 V846s both have a wider sweep. Bugged the hell out of me.

stu can modify the sweep on those..... he's doing one for me..... i think he grinds down the treadle below the heel.... he said you wouldn't notice at all either.
