WHICH WAH?
The majority of email I receive deals with the question of “Which wah do I need?” The following information is a quick synopsis of my models that I’ve put together in hopes of explaining the differences in my models enough for you to be able to pick the right one for your needs.
RMC1 - Very dark wah, suitable for: bass guitar, single coil pickups or other
lower strength pickups, detuned guitars. The RMC1 can get muddy, or lose
definition, with high-output pickups.
RMC2 - Allows the user access to some tuning controls for tune-on-the-fly usage. The primary sound is very similar to the RMC1, although it is a bit brighter than the RMC1 at the #5/RMC1 sweep range. While the RMC2 may share a sweep range with another RMC model, it has its own sound and does NOT reproduce the sound of any other RMC models. The RMC2 works with most any pickup and any amp configuration.
RMC3 - This model CAN reproduce the sounds of all the other RMC models, but the controls are on the circuit board so they can't be hit during performance. The RMC3 is not designed to be tuned on-the-fly. The RMC3 works with most any pickup and any amp configuration.
PICTURE WAH (RMC4) - This is THE model if you want a classic wah sound. The PW works with most any pickup and any amp configuration.
WIZARD WAH (RMC5) - Slightly darker than a "normal" wah. The top end gets only a LITTLE brighter than the actual guitar sound. The WW has a very smooth overall sound - the low has close to the same signal strength as the mid and the top. The WW has a relatively modern sound and should not be thought of as a vintage-sounding wah. The WW works with most any pickup and any amp configuration.
WHEELS OF FIRE (RMC6) - Delivers a sonic replication of one of the old Macari wahs, but should not be thought of as an Italian sounding wah. Two entirely different animals. The WOF has an adjustable low end since not everybody likes the boomy bottom end of a real Macari. The top end is a LITTLE brighter than the WW but not as bright as the PW. The WOF works with most any pickup and any amp configuration.
