Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah Pedal
Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah Pedal Reviews
The BOSS AW-3 Dynamic Wah guitar effects pedal gives you all the wah you need! It's not just for guitarists - the AW-3 is Dynamic Wah, like two pedals in one, with dedicated inputs for both guitar AND bass. Choose between fixed and auto wah, or add an optional expression pedal. You also get a 'humanizer' function that lets you create wild, human-voice type sounds! This pedal can be controlled automatically via a tempo control, or externally using an expression pedal. Put great wah effects into your pedalboard setup with the compact, easy-to-use, and downright awesome AW-3 Dynamic Wah!
Classic Boss
Sturdy, dependable and solid sound nothing to write home about but I wouldn't hesitate to gig with one if needed but not an always on my board kind of pedal. I generally prefer the simpler two knob DOD for live as the knobs are fewer and easier to adjust on the fly. The extra features are nice but would probably be more fun at home or in the studio where you can play around and aren't trying to set it and forget it. Solid product and don't mind having it as backup or extra flavor if it's cold weather and I want to make bizarre sounds in my room.
Truly Dynamic!!!
Plenty of wah-wah range, very quiet and it works well with all instruments.
It's dynamic adjustability makes it multi-useful in all situations.
It bypasses clean and noninhibiting.
I would certainly recommend it to the professional musician.
It even works great with my Takamine acoustic/electric bass.
I am abundantly impressed.
Great when needed
I wont be using this pedal often, but when I want a wah effect while playing solos, fills, slide, singing, and re-creating hit tunes live, this pedal is perfect for me. Ex: Althea, Crazy Mama.
auto wa
Fun to use even in combination with my pedal wah
Step down from the AW-2
It's not the worst auto wah pedal, but the AW-2 was better.
Great Wah!!!
Really great Auto Wah Boss Pedal! Great for Funk, etc. Get that great Wah sound without the foot pedal. Super easy to dial in a great tone. Also does a kind of "talking "effect that is pretty cool. Great Results!! Love it!!
Great Boss Auto Wah!
Really nice pedal. Super easy to use. Sounds great. Really great for funk etc. Various setting so you can dial in just what you need. Great addition to my Pedalboard. Thanks Carson!
Boss AW3 Dynamic Wah
This is an excellent pedal, for both Wah and (almost) talk box effects. I use it for "Do you feel like we do" and Rocky Mt. way. It gets me about 80 percent of what a talk box will, without the some what cumbersome "real" talk box set up. It's built very well. Tends to distort a bit, in a good way, so I turn all distortion/gain effects off. If it broke, I'd buy another.
This Wah's alright
This is an auto-wah first and formost. If you like playing funk, like me, this'll get the sound you want, and they'll be no fiddling with a foot pedal. Simple and effective. I use the humanizer for a "frampton" effect. It does other stuff, but the funk sounds and humanizer are what I use it for.
Very Dissapointing
I really thought this pedal would be better than
what my friends were saying but I was wrong. First of all, its really hard to get the sound you want out of it. Second, it just plain sucked. If you want a really good auto wah i would recommend the Digitech Synth Wah, its really kool.
