just took another look at the weener 2 board, i noticed you would need a jumper to make the dunlop inductor pinout work for the board. this note applies to most dunlop inductors from '90 to 2010, there was a 7.5mm two or four-pin layout, the hot leads are diagonal.  my tone tank inductor uses the dunlop pinout since it was designed to retrofit into the million dunlops out there. jumper diagram below.

also, recently, it is possible that PPP is using a non-standard gear pattern for their wah shells. looking into it further this month. be aware, if you use my 50k, 100k , 250k or 500k smooth pot from my ebay store , small bear, or me directly, my gear may not mesh. removing my gear is easy but they are glued on so well the gear will be destroyed in the process. if you have a ppp shell and want to use a gagan pot , send me a message and i will leave the gear off or install it for you if you send it to me.

thanks! happy wahing.

below is a little photo essay on getting a nice smooth action from your wah. almost all the wahs i sell do not have any lube and work great.

sometimes it becomes necessary to move the pot toe-ward or heel-ward to improve the geometry. seems especially true with at least some of the chinese made wah shells lately, especially when my smaller gear is used( in some cases the action was improved by moving the pot as far heel direction as possible, even flattening the bushing of the pot to move it further rearward). the quality of the chinese shells has been very sporadic both in machining accuracy and the way parts align etc.

please add your input , i hope this thread can become a good resource for all things wah/mechanical.
also, i am on facebook at ' wah wah by joe gagan' --- please come and share your experiences there as well if you have time!
