Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah Guitar and Bass Wah Effects Pedal with Humanizer

Choose between a standard wah effect or use the Humanizer mode to incorporate vowel sounds that resemble a human voice. It features a dedicated bass input.

The Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah is a "talking" pedal -- the first compact wah pedal to incorporate human voice-type sounds through a "Humanizer" Mode. Of course, you can also choose from standard up-and-down wah effects, plus a Tempo Mode and resonant synth-like Sharp Mode.

Endless Possibilities

Choose from both fixed and auto wah settings using the Manual control or pedal for tempo input. By connecting an optional expression pedal, the AW-3 can also be used for Pedal Wah effects. A dedicated Bass input permits direct processing of bass guitars.

"Meh"

Overall: 3 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Overall this pedal is decent. Not exactly Eric Clapton pedal, but its pretty fun to play with
Sound
This pedal is OK. If your into funky solos, this is not for you. It is mainly for any songs that require wah the entire way.
Features
It has tons of different combinations of sounds that are easy to create. The worst part is when the battery runs out.
Quality
its very durable and has good quality
The Wow Factor
You dont HAVE to have it compared to some other wah pedals, but it is a fun box if your just messin' around.
