Title: how to make the weener sound like this ?
Post by: Ang3lus on June 03, 2012, 03:59:52 PM
came across this while searching for whipple on youtube.

I'm using a custom made inductor, but it seems the whipple demos are closer to the wah jakefuzz built.

that is the sound i'm after, any idea how can i get remotely close with the weener ?

Timbo, jakefuzz, and others have really dialed in the sound you are after I think. After modding a buddie's using their knowledge, I think this should get you really close:

C1 15n
C5 10n
C6 omit
Freq pot omit
R4 ~220R
Wipple inductor

Also, an ICAR taper pot probably would not hurt but I used the stock 100k pot and it still sounded great.

i changed c1 to 22n, and actually added the freq pot and c6, it sounds better now to my ears.

the freq pot let's you do "woo-woo" as well as wah-wah, quite cool.

using an icar pot, but it seems the sweep with the pedal is very small, any way to make it bigger ?

please delete this thread, moving my total sum of mods to the mods thread.
