The Definitive Wah, Reissued
When you think of the sound of an electric guitar singing through a wah pedal, you're envisioning the sound of the Vox V846-HW handwired wah pedal. The V846-HW is based on Vox's legendary V846 wah from 1967, regarded by many guitarists as the epitome of the wah-wah effect. The V846-HW handwired wah pedal uses the same vintage spec Halo-type inductors that gave the original V846 its iconic sound. In fact, every component of the V846-HW was chosen to give you vintage tone, low-noise operation, and top-notch performance. The Vox V846-HW handwired wah pedal from Sweetwater may be the last wah you ever need.

Handwired reissue of a classic
Just like the original it's based on, the Vox V846-HW wah pedal sports handwired turret board construction - no printed circuit boards here! While labor-intensive, handwiring lets Vox's expert technicians optimize the signal path for low noise and maximum tone. Your amplifier will absolutely love it.
Premium components for optimum tone
Beyond handwired construction, every component of the V846-HW wah pedal was chosen for maximum sonic benefit. The heart, soul, and vibe of the original V846 wah came from its Halo-type inductor, and the V846-HW uses a vintage-spec Halo-type inductor to put that vintage vibe at your feet. Also note the low-noise carbon composite resistors, chosen for their quiet operation and sonic transparency.
Built to last
The Vox V846-HW is ready to take to the road, with rugged construction and dependable operation. The classic die-cast body can take years of abuse. The footswitch itself is made by Carling Technologies, specialists in high-quality components.
