Small, but it puts out big funky wah sound!

The Electro-Harmonix Nano Dr. Q Envelope Funk Effects Pedal is everything you love about the regular Dr. Q in an even more compact, die-cast package. This compact battery operated envelope device features a Range knob, with an LED status indicator. The effect responds to how hard you hit the string and where the guitar volume control is set. If you hear plops and clicks back it off. When it's set just right you will be able, with some practice, to get different effects depending on whether you play loud or soft. The bass switch lets low sounds through when it is down, and is especially useful when playing bass guitar or bottom string notes on lead guitar.

Electro-Harmonix Nano Doctor Q Envelope Filter Guitar Effects Pedal Features:

• Small die-cast case saves pedalboard space
• Bass switch
• Range knob
• LED indicates when effect is on

I always used this or the older bigger one for a very "subtle" filter effect, playing through the neck pickup of my strat with the treble backed off a tiny bit. I've always used a boost or compressor with the vol up in front of it, because its always sucked volume, although this version is infinitely better than the black hole of tone that the older version was. I haven't found a wah/filter/effect pedal wether it be boutique or mass produced, that does the sound this pedal does. I'm not saying its my favorite pedal, and its not always on, but I do like the couple of sounds that I use it for. Its also very good for the times that I record my bass for solo projects... worth the money.

It's not perfect

Posted by Keegs from Illinois, IL on Aug 17, 2008

Experience w/product: I have heard about it

Reviewer's Background: Hobbyist

Reviewer's Play Style: Alternative Rock / Jazz/ anything but blues

but it sounds interesting after you play around with the circuit board, which is almost like an added feature. ( to fix the filter adjuster, turn it to the point to where it stops hissing and starts giving a growly kind of wah) I probably wouldn't buy it again because it does cut your volume so much, and it has some EQ issues.

Some adjustment required!

Reviewer's Play Style: indie/ambient/some funk

Take note: there is an internal trimmer that must be tweaked if you want this pedal to sound good (see the review below for info). However, once you've done that, this pedal really is worth a try. Sure, it's a subtle effect and a simple control setup, but if you know what you're doing it's a great bit of EH goodness. On a side note, the die-cast case makes it incredibly tough...feel free to stomp on this little guy.

I bought this a few days ago, and there...

I bought this a few days ago, and there is nothing wrong with it. It's gives the tone I was looking for in it. And I have no regrets buying it, and the price is amazing! I use it for bass and I'm still experimenting with it and combinations of other pedals. If you want that funk sound like Bootsy Collins, go ahead and buy it.
