Xotic Wah Pedal Overview

Derived from the legendary 1967-1968 Italian-built Clyde McCoy Wahs, the Xotic Wah pedal stands out for its exceptional versatility and extensive adjustability, offering a wide range of tones suitable for various musical styles.

Key Features and Controls

• BIAS Control: Allows players to modify the pedal’s response from warm, rich tones to clear, smooth vintage sounds.
• Wah-Q Control: Adjusts the Q factor, altering the filter peak sharpness and the intensity of the wah effect for precise tonal shaping.
• Treble & Bass Control: Two-band EQ with +/-15 dB adjustment for extensive tonal customization to accommodate different playing styles and equipment.
• Adjustable Pedal Mechanics: Customizable rocker pedal tension and a rubber stopper to adjust the pedal’s travel range, enhancing playing comfort.

Construction and Utility

• Smooth Operation: Built with a self-lubricating nylon bushing pivot for quiet, seamless use and gold contact relay true bypass for unaltered tone when disengaged.
• Compact and Efficient: 20% smaller than traditional wah pedals, saving space on pedalboards. Operates on a standard 9VDC supply, with external power capabilities.
• LED Indicator: Not only shows the pedal's active status but also flashes to indicate when the battery power is below 50%, prompting battery replacement.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Adjust BIAS and Wah-Q settings while the pedal is off to avoid transient noises.
• Disconnect the input jack when not in use to extend battery life if using a battery instead of an external power supply.

The Xotic Wah is an excellent choice for guitarists seeking a durable, highly expressive wah pedal to enhance their musical expression and performance.
