Which wah should I build?

[Mulekicker]

I have an old, junky Crybaby sitting here that I'm gonna repurpose. What wah is your fav? I've been using various auto wahs and envelope filters for my wacka wacka needs but feel like switching it up. I usually play pretty fuzzed up and prefer pretty deep, vocal sounding wahs. I'm leaning toward the modded Crybaby or the Ibanez wh10 (would have to order the weird dual pot for that though). Suggestions???

I like the Crybaby circuit, but inductors have such a wide tolerance that a few of the component values need to be fine-tuned by ear to get the most vocal sound.

Here's what I did to mine:
1. I replaced the bjt input buffer with a darlington, which eliminated the need for a true bypass mod.
2. I replaced the sweep cap with a larger value to get a more vocal wah sound
3. I added a second, much larger, sweep cap on a switch for a very deep wah. Sounds good on bass and on guitar.
4. Upped the input cap for both the input buffer and the main wah circuit
5. Increased both the Q resistor and the bass-treble transition resistor for a more vocal wah with a smooth transition from bass to treble.

If you're interested I can post my notes from when I made the changes, but remember I didn't rebuild a new circuit from scratch, I just made some mods to the existing circuit board. Also, the specific values I chose were by ear, so to optimize yours, you might end up with different values than I did.

Here are some resources I used at the time:
