VOX Joe Satriani Big Bad Wah
Part three in the collaboration between Joe Satriani and Vox gives us the Big Bad Wah. If you are looking for the most versatile wah pedal available, this is your answer. Built with the combined knowledge of one of the finest guitar players to ever walk the earth and a guitar equipment company that has more history just about anyone, this pedal just oozes vibe and we haven’t even talked tones yet.
The most notable feature of the VOX Joe Satriani Big Bad Wah is it’s ability to change between two distinctly different wah sounds via the dual mode switch. Wah 1 is a fixed wah that bases its sound on the vintage Vox wah sound we all grew up with plus a few tone tweaks Satch suggested like a smoother sweep from low to high. Wah 2 is like a build your own wah sound. The Drive and Voice controls apply only to Wah 2 and allow you to adjust the tones to your hearts content.
The VOX Joe Satriani Big Bad Wah has another feature you have likely not seen before, the ability to switch between two inductors. Inductors are the electrical component that give a wah much of its character. This new pedal allows you to choose between the vintage Vox sounding inductor of the more modern sounding US style inductor. The Big Bad Wah truly has a very cool effect and make this wah like having two different pedals at the push of a button.
Add a custom designed pot made specifically for the VOX Joe Satriani Big Bad Wah and you have the next big thing in wah-wah pedals. Grab one today because if they are like all the other Satch pedals, they will sell out quick.
