Ibanez TLWD7 Tone Lok Weeping Demon Wah Pedal

Feature:
basic and simple. the way we like it.

Quality:
so far so good. seems a tad delicate. i refrain myself from stepping on it hard. i have dropped it a few times, but all was ok after.

Value:
come on! for the price you get this baby to scream ! its a deal .....its a fantstic deal. get it...now

Desirability:
it is sexy

Sound:
the sound is amazing. i´m into rock, thrash, death metal,etc and this is perfect. this baby screams, meows, cries......and more. i´m one of those guys that are trapped into trying to find the best wah pedal on the market. this comes pretty close for a wah freak. can they make pedal scream more than this guy? if yes, which one? pleeeaaase. beleive this or not, but i was using it and someone thought a cat was crying....now is that a good sign or what!? i´m torn between giving 10. but i believe one day the perfect wah pedal will be made. you can play with this baby alllll night.....to hell with the neighbours!

Ease of Use:
easy to use, straight forward. you´ll need 10 to 20 minutes to paly around.

Support:
unknown

Overall:
i´m giving a 9 bordering 10. after my long search for an extreme wah pedal...this comes the closest. if you´re into making yr guitar cry,moan,wail,etc then you def need this. without a doubt.

Feature:
Hhhmmm... Auto Switch - Awesome! Auto Switch sensitivity - Awesome! Big time pedal range / sweep - You read my mind! Complete control over sound - Keep it coming guys. 50 to 70 dollars less than a comparable pedal at best. - Does someone have a tissue my eyes are watering. Fun to play - ONLY REASON I BOTHERED TO POST A COMMENT (which I have never done before!) PS - Being able to fine tune the actual pedal range - awesome. You can pick where you want the pedal to 'take off.' Seriously, just buy this damn pedal and move on. (IF YOU DO NOT AGREE I SWEAR YOU DO NOT HAVE THE PEDAL SET RIGHT WITH YOUR AMP. SOMETIMES EVERY OPTION IN THE WORLD CAN BE A PAIN IN THE BACKSIDE TILL YOU FIGURE OUT WHAT ALL THE DIF SETTINGS DO. READ THE MANUAL. SIMPLE IS NICE BUT FORREST GUMP DOESN'T PLAY GUITAR!) Plus this thing still sounds great out of the box.

Quality:
Love it. Love that you can push your setting buttons in and never worry about everything changing accidentally. Love that you can switch pedal modes (normal wah / spring loaded). Feals durable. If you take a hammer to your equipment then you are rich and have problems or you are an idiot and have problems.

Value:
Look buy any other wah you will spend more for the same or less for a product that is less. Some people have complained (few though) about this pedal but I doubt they had it set right. You can make this pedal sound like crap. I can also make my guitar, amp or any equipment sound like crap. That is why I buy equip that gives me a choice. I can do what I want and this pedal can hit any wah sound to low, to high, or anywhere else THAT I(!!!) choose it to go. Point is, it can adjust to your style no matter what style you're into.

Desirability:
OK, this survey just asked me about the products sex appeal. Most other pedals look like they belong under your grand mamas piano. This pedal looks like the gas pedal to hell if you know what I mean. You may disagree but then look at your 'piano' pedal then look at this one and think about it. Those with Vox 847 or 847A disregard this comment seeing how the chrome (in my opinion) on your pedal makes the 'granny' piano pedal look friggin cool again. (Hell Slash Dunlop looks cool, Dimebag too if your into that SK8er look.)

Sound:
Seriously, this pedal is bad to the bone. I went through every wah pedal pretty much one by one. Thing is they all disappointed me... big time!! I was like... this just isn't enough rage / the sound I want(!!!) or that I am looking for (very expressive). Then I found the weeping demon. Hhmmm... where should I start. You can friggin control everything / get the perfect sound with all the settings available. People who say "it muddies your tone haven't spent any time with it." Look, it has a gain, a Q and a low setting. You can get any sound you want from it. You can find that perfect sound or you can make it sound like crap. It is an effects pedal! You can take it too far or get it just where you want it BUT! at least you have the ability to decide what your sound is. It can go subtle or extreme. PLUS!!! it can be set to use as a bass wah pedal. For the best sound you def need to play with it (controls) but once you do I haven't had a wah pedal that even comes close. It goes down crazy (range) and can be easily set to do things that only a high-end Dunlop will do if you spend more money (basic price starts at 60 (no frills / sucky wah) then goes to 150/170 if you want Slash / Dimebag / the good stuff models). I have heard people complain (few) about this pedal but when you have a pedal that allows you to tweak every feature you are going to get complainers cuz people don't know how to set it up right! Trust me!!! I have tried a lot of wahs. You know what is crazy is I have the newest version of Office / Word and I can find every feature except for spell check. What!?!? That is why I love this pedal. They made it all about me. Easy. Simple. Lots of options. Right price range... hell yaah! Now... for the friggin spell check.

Ease of Use:
Uhm here is where it gets tricky. This product rocks big time. BUT... It is a two sided deal here. It gives you every option possible for perfect sound / performance but if you just flip knobs and plug it in it might make your amp sound bad. Which is cool cuz you can get exactly what you want if you use your head / ears. Dial in the sound you like. You can make it sound how ever you want unlike some other wahs I have played or owned. I mean, to low can be bad, to much gain can be bad. JUST LIKE YOUR AMP OR ANY OTHER PEDAL!!!!! At least you can set it. Get the sound where you like it and no matter what it will still do stuff a lower to middle end Crybaby cannot do! Higher end Crybabys aren't better either, they just start to compare. Auto switch is awesome but the way!!

Support:
Only 10 cuz I have no idea. Can't count against them if I don't know.

Overall:
Look I tried most of em. Dunlops don't even compare. I DID NOT TRY VOX so I do not vouch for or against them. Heard they are great as long as you aren't big into distortion. Well WD7 (Weeping Demon) is great for everything... clean, distortion, bass guitar, etc. Unlike Dunlops which seem to have a sweet spot along the lower end of the fret board, the Ibanez did not AND put your 6 string into bass (think its called low) mode and it even wahs harder / better! I give up! Where the hell is spellcheck!
