Do you guys have any ideas on a good, inexpensive wah pedal? What are some good but affordable models, and where can i get them cheap? I actually prefer a used one, because it'd be cheaper. Do any of you have one, by chance, for sale? Thanks guys.

I bought a (1976?) JH-1 Dunlop Jimi Hendrix wah on eBay for $45. Keep digging.

The best wah in my opinion is the ORIGINAL Jim Dunlop CRY BABY! It has that vintage feel to it! I love mine!

I think the range on the Jim Dunlops is pretty poor. Had the origonal model and swapped if for a dearer one- am still no happy tho!

Yeah, BUT I am going after that 70s sound! It is perfect for that! In the 70s, they didn't HAVE all the pedals available today, so their range WAS limited! But the point I am making is that if vintage sound is what you are after, try the jim dunlop original. Either that or the Vox original.(Jimi Hendrix used a Vox wah onstage at woodstock when he played the star spangled banner.) If you are after another type of sound, then there is a whole range of wah pedals out there....the Steve Vai Bad Horsie wah comes to mind for a newer sound.
