XW-2 Wah Metallic Blue
A refined, simplified evolution of the XW-1, tuned at the factory for an easy, vocal-like wah voice without external EQ fiddling.
About this pedal
Where the XW-1 hands the player external tone controls, the XW-2 dials in the wah voicing internally for ‘maximum tone with minimal fiddling’ — plug in and get a vocal, musical wah drawn from the same vintage Clyde McCoy inspiration. It keeps the XW-1’s custom-wound inductor, relay-based true bypass switching, and adjustable rocker tension in a compact enclosure.
