No, this isn't even amplified. Press your headstock against a wooden object and play a chord. You'll hear the object vibrating and amplifing your guitar.Visionless_Guitarist wrote:those vibrations aro most likely the reverb unit
Now, my Crybaby is completely standard (as far as I know anyway). It also has the LED, I had to unsolder it and change the height of it. I'm wondering why your wah is still hard to turn on and off. Does the underneath of the moveable part of the pedal have pads where it touches the body of the wah when it is fully closed? Maybe they're too large. That is the only thing I can think of. But adding a little height to the button is probably an ok idea. I would suggest that you glue something to where the button presses against the moveable part of the pedal instead of the other way around, I reckon you could do a better job like that.
Other than that, what mod did Paul Crowther do on it? Just a true bypass?

the 'washer thing' would be the locknut. If you've adjusted the locknut as far down as possible and it still isn't switching right - take the locknut off altogether and put 2 or 3 thin washers on instead, if no good take a washer off at a time till its right. You make it sound a lot harder than it is, it should only take a few minutes to do.gregtarr wrote:Go to the switch and screw the washer thing that is on the shaft down a bit (so the switch sits a bit higher - just a little bit higher though). Now stick it all back together - and the switch should be a little higher, and therefore you don't have to press down quite so hard to switch it.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Nope don't really understand, so the pcb is fixed to the switch? Sounds a bit dodgy if that is the case... try the padding but make sure its stuck with epoxy or something strong - you don't want it to go at an inoportune moment!Red Fred wrote:The LED is connected to a little pcb board on the bottom the of the switch so the LED is inline with the switch. You get it?
I might just put more padding where the switch hits the pedal...

oh that's a bit of a bugger! not well planned out at all, get the epoxy resin out mate, and stick a washer or two to the pedal. Do you use the LED at all?
I've never bothered fitting one to mine as its one of those effects that is pretty much obvious if its on or not.
