Default Cheap/broken wah pedal

Looking to pick something up to mod to an expression pedal for the incoming Axe. My only stipulation is that the gears that turn the pot need to be intact. For references, I got a bunch of iTrader at ss.org, 21 positive (100%) feedback at eGay.

Shipping is to Canada.

Check out the BOSS FV-300L. I've got one and it's pretty great. There's one on eBay right now:

Boss FV-300L Foot Volume Expression Pedal Like New!! - (eBay.ca item 290277702102 end time 30-Nov-08 20:38:07 EST)

And if you don't mind a bit of DIY, you can buy empty wah pedal shells from Small Bear Electronics and put in your own pot and electronics.

Wah-Wah and Swell Pedal Parts

Note that the kits come with the rack gear, but you have to buy a separate pinion gear for the pot. (or a pot with a pinion gear attached already)

Will those Boss ones work with 1 stereo cable into an effects unit or do I need a Y cable?

The FV-300L will actually work with TWO stereo cables (which is how i'm using it with my GT-6 and AG-Stomp). It's a stereo volume pedal and two of the jacks on the back are TRS and allow you to use it as a dual expression pedal. Very handy.

If I get a new wah this weekend, I have an older but fully functional Crybaby wah I'd sell you for like $25 + shipping or something.

Sounds good to me. Just let me know if you pick up that wah.
