About this listing
R2R Electric Vintage WahUp for sale is an R2R Electric Vintage Wah, a small-batch, handmade recreation of the classic late-1960s "Clyde McCoy" wah circuit. What sets R2R apart is the parts: every unit is built with a combination of New Old Stock (NOS) and vintage components pulled from 1950s, '60s, and '70s audio gear, (Reverb) so no two units sound or age quite the same — each is genuinely one-of-a-kind.Build highlights:Original Clyde McCoy circuit, housed as a separate head unit and expression controller (TRS cable included) (Reverb)Halo inductor with vintage CTS and Centralab potentiometers (Reverb)NOS 1960s Siemens BC109C transistors (Reverb)NOS Mullard "Tropical Fish" capacitors, plus Philips and NOS 1984 JAN paper-in-oil capacitors (Reverb)Early-'60s Philips, Piher, and carbon composition resistors, wired with period-correct Philips and NOS Teflon solid-core wire (Reverb)Toggle switch lets you use it as a standard wah or lock the sweep for a "cocked wah" filtered tone (R2R Electric)True bypass9V DC powerSound: A classic, highly expressive wah voice in the vein of iconic '60s and '70s tones — equally at home in rock, funk, and blues. (Equipboard) Users consistently rank it among the most expressive and authentic-sounding wahs available today.A note on compatibility: Because it's built to true vintage spec, it doesn't play well with vintage-style germanium Fuzz Faces placed after it in the chain (Equipboard) — a silicon Fuzz Face after the wah, or a germanium fuzz before it, works fine.
