People that hate this pedal must have crappy equipment. I run this through my Marshall tube JCM and it is amazing. I am in a band with a very hyper drummer and when it is time for the solo, this pedal cuts through the drums,bass and rhythm player in my band and the highs are incredible with a fierce Wah bite. I don't know about the screeching cause I use my Marshall distortion, so I don't mess with the Overdrive button.

I am very happy with this pedal. best part is the durability. this is my 4th Wah Pedal. 3 original Crybaby Wahs all tore up. This one is still going strong after 2 years.

The Dunlop SW-95 Slash wah is a Dunlop quality wah pedal, even if for a hefty price. It holds up well to high gain, and is smooth in it's transition. I definitely don't recommend buying it for tHe gain circuit, though. It did produce a lot of feedback. Overall, it gets the job done.

Great wah pedal. Love the fact that it has the Fasel inductor. Has a real sweet wah tone. The built in distortion is great to give solos that extra kick. My friend has the dime wah and after hearing my slash wah he said he wants one....all in all great product.

I have had my Slash wah for a few days and I am impressed with it. My setup is 1975 Kasuga strat copy with kinman pickups, Tech 21 British distortion pedal and Marshall AVT 275 amplifier. With the volume and gain controls I can get just the right intensity that I'm after. The distortion switch is very easy to use and is great for "over the top" wah solos. Compared with the Dunlop classic this pedal has a sweeter non-distortion tone, has a less obvious affect on your guitar tone when the wah is clicked off. I've also found the pedal very forgiving as it is difficult to make it sound bad (as long as you are sensible with the volume and gain - there is a lot of headroom because of the 18 volt energy supply). I scored it down on value because it was expensive but I don't regret it. Sometimes you have to pay for quality. In summary - I love it because it allows lots of options to be creative and expressive.

This wah is prety darn good. There is no feed back issuses as many complain about if you know how to play guitar properly.. it only feedbacks if yer silly enough to turn the gain and volume all the way up.. more so the volume.. the built in distortion/gain isnt meant to be used as a stomp box distortion effect pedal.. just a small roll forward and half of that with the volume will realy give soloing that cut above the other wah pedals out there..this baby can realy quack if you know what yer doing. Downside is the top loading battery holder sux and lack of true bypass, it do suk some tone/ volume.. you may need to adjust the pot a few notches forward too depending on preference. Mate I jam with has a classic cry baby and the slash just blows it away for tone and sweep range. I recomend this one for the more seriouse player that knows how to play.
