To wah or not to wah, that is the question... try one of six here

The 2 Wah is six wahs in one

Manufacturer's description

What the world needs now is wah, more wah! Classic detailing in a diecast housing, the 2 Wah provides six different voicings with two presets controlled via a heel switch on the rocker. Sliding switches on the unit front allow three higher range voicings for rhythm work, and three lower range voicings for lead work…. and a Level control to dial in just the right amount of effect. 9V battery operation or regulated (suggested) power supply, and the typical true bypass on/off switch at the toe of the rocker complete this wah ‘chameleon’

MusicRadar rating

3.5 of 5

Pros

The concept is a good one and the tones are uniformly excellent.

Cons

That mode switch is a little too sensitive.

The bottom line

This is an impressive wah - well-made and at a good price. We'd suggest trying it first, as flicking between modes can become a little too easy, but the sounds on offer are as good as we expect from Carl Martin.
