Wah wah pedal that is a tribute to the first production wah wah ever made: this modernized classic captures the throaty voice and expressive sweep of the original while offering gigging players the consistency and convenience they need on the road. As heirs to the wah wah lineage and guardians of its legacy, Dunlop drew from decades of wah wah design and building experience to ensure that this pedal faithfully represents the tone and spirit of the very first wah wah. Years ago, Dunlop inherited the original tooling and machinery used to design and manufacture the first Clyde McCoy pedals from the Thomas Organ Company and Jen Electronica. They used a special component called a Halo inductor to give the original Clyde McCoy pedals their highly-coveted smooth vocal quality. Because of the way those original Halo inductors were built, however, they often added undesirable microphonic noise. Dunlopr engineers created the Dunlop HI01 Halo Inductor to solve this problem, updating the original design with a stabilized cup core to preserve the unique Clyde McCoy sound while minimizing unpleasant microphonics. The rest of the pedal’s circuitry is just as faithful to its forebear, featuring thru-hole components built into a classic housing with a premium pot, switch, and jacks.
