"Nice, man, nice!"
Feature:
Pretty basic stuff. It does come with a very nice, compact black and white vinyl carrying bag with a carrying strap that has "V O X" in gold on the front. As far as the pedal, it's basic. Click the toe-end forward to turn on/off and all that.
10/10
Quality:
Very beuatiful, very sturdy (as far as I've used it). I'm not worried about it breaking or something stop working any time.
10/10
Value:
Pretty cheap, I don't feel cheated. Could be a slight bit cheaper but I don' have any regrets.
9/10
Desirability:
Like I said before, VERY beatiful and "official looking."
10/10
Sound:
Great sound. Gives a great Hendrix/Clapton/60s/70s tone (but don't just play like that, people, experiment, music is what you make it, no matter what!), and is great for that kind of psychedelia and blue-rock, and if YOU'RE bold and versatile enough you can fit it into just about anything.
Only complaint, I do get an occasional unwelcome sound or buzz, but my guitar that I have now is a piece of crap to the max (Fullerton Start. Heard of it? Neither have I...) so I'll just assume it's the guitar, but I'll give it a nine just to be safe if I'm worng (you know what they say about assuming...).
9/10
Ease of Use:
Very easy, very fun, love it. Very playable and is great for improv and anything else you want, really.
10/10
Support:
Haven't had to use it.
N/A
Overall:
Very, very glad with my purchase.
If stolen, I'd buy again.

"Does one thing amazingly well"
Feature:
I do not know what parts are used in this product, but whatever they are are really good, it sounds great. Mine is an earlier one with no AC jack, that is my only complaint, but the batteries last a really long time.
Quality:
This would definitely be appropriate for ''the road''. I have had no problems with it.
Value:
I payed 130$ for it, but that was in a store. It is worth around 100-120
Desirability:
I wanted it because of all the great players that have used it. Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Randy Rhoads. I loved the wah sound on there records. Every electric guitar player NEEDS a wah pedal.
Sound:
It is the sound of Jimi Hendrix and early Eric Clapton. It sounds basically the same as Clapton on ''white room'' with a humbucker equipped guitar. I've never used it with a single coil equipped guitar. However, I have read reviews of people with strats saying it's great for Jimi. It is not a good metal wah. For that I would recommend either the Dimebag Crybaby or the bad horsie wah. It is meant for classic rock and blues. It does one thing but it does it incredibly well. I have used a Hendrix crybaby, this is much better. To make this sound the best. On your amp, don't put the treble on 10 and the bass on 0. I would put the bass on 4, the treble on 7. This wah is very trebly and if your treble is really high on the amp, it will kill you. You need to experiment with the amps eq. Also, I think it sounds best on the bridge pickup. I am using a Marshall AVT 100x amp, and a really nice Agile Les paul doublecut copy, it is almost as good as my friends genuine les paul studio
Ease of Use:
It takes about a day or two to learn how to properly work a wah. For this you might have to fiddle with your amps EQ a little bit but that is not a big deal.
Support:
I have not had any problems with this, so I have not needed support.
Overall:
I think it will last a very long time, if something happens to it or it is stolen, I would definitely buy another. This is a keeper.
