Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight Plus Cocked Talking Wah and Fuzz Pedal
Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight Plus Cocked Talking Wah and Fuzz Pedal Reviews
The Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight Plus builds on the acclaim of the original Cock Fight wah/fuzz pedal, putting it in a familiar wah pedal housing and retaining its epic tone. With two distinct filter types — wah and talking wah — plus a vivacious fuzz circuit with bias control, the Cock Fight Plus is three effects in one. Put the fuzz effect after the filter for classic rock tones, or before the wah filter for synth-style tones. Or disengage the fuzz completely for some of the cleanest, most vibrant filter and wah effects you've ever heard. Whether you park it for cocked-wah tones, or work it for maximum expression, guitarists at Sweetwater agree: the Electro-Harmonix Cock Fight Plus wah/fuzz pedal is sure to inspire.

Love this Wah!!
I bought the this Wah when it first came out. Love it.
Sounds great!
This pedal is very versatile and sounds great! Every sound Is useful! My only problem is that compared to any other Wah pedal that I've owned is feels cheap. The trade off is that it's light and doesn't weigh your pedalboard down. Wah and owww…. And fuzz! In one package!
Very cool sounds
Bought this a few months ago for use in a home studio and completely happy with the sound and quality of build. I understand that it is not cast iron and unbreakable but nothing is. Wide variety of sounds are possible and with minimal noise. I like that it has a battery or external power option. The small knobs are difficult or impossible to use in a live situation but I don't do that and as with any foot pedal I would hate to stand on my head in the middle of a song to change settings. Here is a clean loop playing while I trey most of the effect changes.
Swiss Army Wah
WEAK!
As many others have stated below in the reviews. I wanted to love this thing but it is WEAK at best for what it does. I as well bought this based on the video demo and thought it sounded great.
So disappointed in its performance and sound. I own many wahs. Cry baby, Morley bad horsie, ibanez, slash Wah power Wah and now this Ehx paper weight.
I own many Ehx effects as well and I am very happy with them. But this Wah is a disappointing dud!
I have to say in my 40+ years of playing I would not suggest anyone to buy this. The demo video is very impressive until you get it home and realize you purchased snake oil
Interesting But...
Consensus Is...
Pro's: It's EHX made, it sounds good, it does many things. Thanx EHX.
Con's: It's EHX made, it would sound better if it were to cost $59.98, what it does do it does it on a mediocre level, and it feels as if EHX mated with Behringer for the construction.
Conclusion: Buy it , don't buy it.
I like it in general but the talking effect sweep is wrong! Needs fixing in v2. And how about fuzz only? Please?
Very good bottom and top end.
Very good bass with bass dial fully clockwise,really nice wah. I dont like the TALK function. Very poor fuzz, extremely noisey when not playing anything.
Not evn close
Zero Stars...... Was looking to get a nice wah and stumbled across this one. I have several EHX pedals and they are incredible, the Epitome being the best. But this one seems like too much of an afterthought and is just poor.... 1. WAY too much noise, I mean, it felt like it was from the late 60s or early 70s noisy... 2. The throw of the pedal is not very linear. Just as I would be getting close to a sound that I wanted to set, it would go way above that point.... 3. The overdrive in the unit was also noisy. I would like to see them take that OD as it sounded cool until it was cranked, and put it into its own pedal... Will helped me out in exchanging it for a Cry Baby and I look forward to receiving that smooth wah. Thanks Will
Versitile
A lot of usable sounds to be found, Fuzz/wah is a great combo and this all in one pedal can be an excellent addition to anyone's board. Have been trying it before and after other drive and fuzz pedals and it has a unique sound in both locations. Maybe i need two. Enough tweeks available that anyone should be able to find a tone they like. The fuzz sound itself is ok but with the right cocked position it can be used in its own. Overall a good product for the price.
Hendrix and Walsh all in one
Love this pedal! The wah effect is a great classic wah ala Hendrix or Cream. The fuzz is meaty, but not the typical wall of noise I hear in so many others and the talking version can easily pull off Rocky Mtn Way or Man in the Box. Try it or buy it, you won't be disappointed either way.

Need more time, to give a good evaluation of the product.
Not as good as advertised
I watched the manufactures video of this product and was thoroughly impressed. However, in reality it doesn"t sound as good in person as it does in the video. The wah function is marginally good, same for the overdrive, but the talking wah function sounds nothing like it does in the video. If you ever want to extract a confession out of someone, tie them up and make them listen to the dead battery sound. This is the typical example of one product trying to be good at everything but only being marginally good at any one of them.
Wanted to Love It
I have old wahs, digital wahs and really are into the wah sound lately. I saw this and jumped on it. Out of the box it just wasn't doing it for me. I was going to send it back but opted not to. So what's the verdict after a few months? I still don't like it! Maybe it's all the plastic but really I just don't "feel" the wah when playing. I wish I would have spent my money on something else...but I'm still hoping to like it one day.
Don't believe the naysayers!
Amazing Effects
This pedal does it for me. Great tones, good value, and light as a feather! Best addition to my pedalboard in years.
Cheap
It was plastic and the pedal wouldn’t even click the button to work when you stepped on it. If I had kept it I would have had to glued an extension just to get it to work.
