My setup for basic home playing is
Guitar>distortion pedal>crybaby>amp

Now, when I have my distortion pedal on and I turn on the wah, it has a muffled sound when the pedal is angled all the way back, is their any way to make it sound normal as if it wasnt on, and still use the wah when pushing down on the pedal?? does this make sense????

I have the Steve Vai Bad Horsie wah for my guitar rig. The wah turns off automatically when the pedal is all the way back and turns on when the pedal is even slightly pushed down. I don't think you're gonna get away with having the wah turned on and not getting any effect from it.

Hey thanks man, speaking of which, how do you like the Bad Horsie wah?
and do you know of any others that turn off automatically??

try putting the pedal on the other side of the distortion

It sounds really good through a combo amp when I'm noodling around with it. It doesn't do much more than collect dust now, though. I bought it, used it to replicate all of my favorite songs featuring wah, made some porno music and got tired of it. I know there is a Bad Horsie II now with some knobs and extras on it.

I don't know of any others that turn off automatically.

A wah is essentially a parameteric EQ pot on a rocker pedal. Different pedals affect the tone differently in their sweep range. You might be "close" to replicating your tone in a spot along the sweep, but it'll never be perfect unless it's off.

Right, well Ill screw around with the adjustment and see where that will lead, Im also looking at those Bad Horsie wahs, I like the fact that their auto

I have a Squire Stagemaster I think it's called. They don't make them any more. I saved up my money in junior high and my dad brought me to a music store and I picked that one and a shitty Fender combo amp. I kind of eyeballed the basses as we were there but decided on the guitar. As we were walking out I saw this dude in one of the amp rooms playing this really funky ditty on bass and I just thought "...fuck".

Also, my friend had a Dunlop Crybaby for a while. One of the parts in it broke and he would have had to send in to Dunlop to get the part, so he just never bothered and now has a big, blue, hundred dollar paper weight.

Ive found the solution to my wah problems!!!
