Pretty cool until you have to replace the oddball 7k/11k dual pot, which is made of unobtainium. Even worse, the pot has a tap on one of the traces.
January 10, 2011 at 8:04 pm #113617Fender&EHX4everModeratorEH Man, what’s the chance that you would design a Talking Pedal Clone for those of us who’ll never score an original ?
(substituting the unobtainium, of course)
January 10, 2011 at 8:05 pm #113618The EH ManModeratorSlim to none. Can’t find a replacement pot for it.
January 10, 2011 at 8:34 pm #113619companymanParticipantGoodhonk says it sounds just like a Bassballs, did this precede that pedal?
January 10, 2011 at 8:44 pm #113621The EH ManModeratorThey came out roughly the same time. The Talking Pedal is much more vocal in it’s effect.
January 10, 2011 at 8:56 pm #113622companymanParticipanthaving treadle control over the rate would be pretty cool!
January 10, 2011 at 9:19 pm #113623The EH ManModeratorThe Talking Pedal is more of a very vocal wah than an envelope filter.
January 10, 2011 at 10:10 pm #113625Mr.GrimMemberhay Ron, this pedal aside, do you know where home builders can find treadle type enclosures?!?!?! i have many many suppliers for standard aluminum enclosures, but nothing in a wah / volume type?!?!?!! please tell me you know a maker!!

There was a guy at the DIY forum that was making some but that’s about it. Cheaper to buy a used Dunlop or other wah and gut it.

January 11, 2011 at 12:50 am #113630Mr.GrimMemberdamn! thanks for the info Scruffie but thats still a bit expensive for multiple builds.
i once seen a website and lost track of it, of sum one who makes boutique pedals and sells the enclosures. they offered a small expression enclosure, almost like the “chi-wha-wha” i was hoping sum one will know sum info.

I know the pedal you mean… give me a day or two to see if I can find it… I didn’t know they sold the enclosures but I know what you mean.
You ever seen the Devi Ever emo wah? Never produced but with the base of a 1590A enclosure and a 1590B Enlcosure… i’ll see if I can find a picture, you’d have to do a bit of engineering though.

January 11, 2011 at 1:48 am #113637Mr.GrimMemberno Scruffie it wasn’t the same company that makes the “chi-wha-wha” (Plutonium? i think?) it was a different smaller more boutique company who made pedals but also offered enclosures. i only used the “chi-wha-wha” as an example, the one im thinking of actualy wasn’t the same (almost a Boss style case) it was more of a Crybaby case, but small like a Boss pedal.
but thank you for your help and efforts!!!

No no, I got that, i’ve seen the company you mean though that made something simmilar to the Chi Wah (Yes it is Plutonium) I saw it a few months back, just having trouble remembering who it was, i’ll search for it though.
