"This will change your carreer as a musician!"

Feature:
It's your basic Wah-Wah, no flashing lights or fancy colours, but it gets the job done (Sound amazing).

Quality:
Bulletproof construction, if Metallica's Kirk Hammett could use one on the road for twenty years, you certainly could too.

Value:
This pedal is worth every penny. If you use one, you are not going to be able to stop. Their addictive tone has many uses and has kept me hooked.

Desirability:
Again, it's just a basic LOOKING pedal and it wont turn heads until you turn it on and start playing.

Sound:
This pedal sounds perfect. I play Classic Rock and 80's Metal and it absolutely rocks. The Crybaby has a nice wide sweep and when you just pass over that "Sweet Spot" when lowering your toe you can get that abrupt Wah sound used on so many classic records. This pedal sounds fantastic without distortion, great for reggae; but when you kick up the gain of your amp or another pedal, this pedal just sings. The GCB-95 sits inside a bulletproof steel housing that will easily handle any kind of abuse you can throw at it at home, or especially on tour.

Ease of Use:
Incredibly easy to use, put a battery in it, plug in, and you're ready to go, no calibration, and no adjustments.

Support:
I have not encountered ANY problems in this pedal's seven year history, so I cannot vouch for repairmen.

Overall:
Very Satisfying purchase. I know I will not have to buy another Wah pedal until this one breaks which could be another 35 years or more. This pedal WILL NOT WEAR OUT! This pedal is just amazing, you must play one to know the feeling as it cannot be described, sounds GREAT!

"The best"

Feature:
It has a battery compartment, it has a power supply input, it has an instrument input, it has output to your amp, and it has pedal that when moved with the foot forward and backward makes some real cool sounds. What else do you need?

Quality:
I have yet to have an issue with it.

Value:
Good price for a piece of Rock and Roll history. I got mine at the local music retailer and I was able to haggle with the sales kid. It

"Great buy, Great sound"

Feature:
not many features, but the sound compensates for it. I have found that the more effects u throw on a pedal, the cheap it gets. It may not have the features of a digitech, but digitech sound too much like a midi patch, so this is definately a fuller sound.

Quality:
sturdy product, you could drop it and its great for jams. Made of solid metal, unlike digitech or some morleys that have plastic on it. I have had it for about a half of a year and no problems yet, except it kind of chews up battery power so i would reccomend getting the best battery you can find, i didnt and mine shorted halfway through a jam.

Value:
sounds like a vox for 30 dollars less, do u really need to buy the vox name?

Desirability:
very desireable product with the way it sounds. Not as cool looking as the vox, but a real guitarist knows that looks arent everything especially for pedals. I mean who sees ur pedals when ur on stage? So many people play with it, so its definately an "I Want It" product.

Sound:
sounds amazing, ive tried a few others like a morley and a vox, but i liked this one better. I found that the only plus that a vox had was styling over this. I use it for mainly cream songs, but if ur more into jimi hendrix, this pedal works well, but its not as fat sounding as the hendrix pedal, so if u want that juicier sound go with the hendrix. I would say its not the greatest sound for metal, but it can work. If ur a metal head wanting this, i would stay with the dime bag darrell model.

Support:
no problems yet

Overall:
Why else would it be the number one wah product on the market?

"Simply the best"

Feature:
Only one feature, but its great at what it does.

Quality:
The ZIPPO lighter of wah pedals

Value:
Great for the price

Desirability:
Desirable to any guitar player

Sound:
Great sound, nothing beats a classic. Why did someone write that they needed it to sound like a bent string???? As far as I know, wah wah pedals are supposed to change the tone, not change the pitch of the string...If you need to bend a string, bend it with your fingers. Geez...

Support:
Never used it

Overall:
The best
