Weeping Demon is definately more towards the metal crowd..... DEFINATELY not as suitable for a funk musician. I'm not saying that you absolutely CAN'T use the Weeping Demon for funk, but you're better off getting a Dunlop Wah compared because of it's unique tones.

Of course!!!! The only difference between the regular Dunlop Wah pedals and his pedals? Slash uses a Custom Cunlop Wah Rack system. Basically, he has a central unit in his rack, and that unit distributes the signal to the controllers all over the stage.

But remember, get a wah which suits your musical playing. If you're playing funk, don't bother with a weeping demon, or for that matter, a Wylde Wah. But if you're playing alot of metal or hard rock music, then those will suit you fine.

GCB-95 I think retails for about 350 bucks. Not sure about the Vox one though.

Right now, I can't decide between a Rotovibe or the Wylde Wah. Obviously, I already have a wah, but the Wylde Wah has a much wider range (AND with Fasel inside!), but the rotovibe will only be used sparringly, although it's something that I might play alot with it....

Guys? What are your picks??

Yeah, but the Rotovibe also adds to the arsenal.

But amazingly, I found the Dimebag a little Too overpowering. Remember, I still want to play alot of Hendrix and funk style music too. And the Wylde Wah is unique because it comes with a little tuner so you can adjust how much "Pressure" you can add to the pedal.

Sometimes I just leave it on at a certain level, just for the sound. That one, I will need a very hard pressure. But for Funk where you "Rock the cradle", you need a very loose wah. So that's why a Wylde Wah is very useful also.

Get a dedicated Wah pedal man. The Zoom 707II doesn't have that full Wah sound that we all know and love. Even the GFX-5 wah isn't all that good.

Get the GCB-90. It's relatively cheap and is VERY versatile.

To me, it does the basic effects well.... I get to play around with lots of different effects with lots of great combinations. Also, with the expression pedal, you get to play around alot more, like the flange, tremolo, volume and pitch effects alot more. I can faithfully replicate alot of Tom Morello's stuff in his new Audioslave days. Like A Stone can be faithfully replicated.

I also like to play with the different distortion effects that you can get and the amp modelling is pretty decent. In fact, I'm actually using the tube amp modelling which is connected to my ZW-44.... and it does a good job of replicating Zakk's tone.
