    I used it some more…..it definitely sucks tone so much that I found a new use for it. used after a cry baby it helps to smooth its output and the hiss allowing for a soft but clean wah sound when you’re using a tube amp in a slightly crunchy setting which normally gets dirtier if you engage a wah pedal…

    I wonder if it would have been better with just a 250k pot and an effective treble bypass circuit, maybe switchable….

    I would be really curious to hear from someone else and from EHX themselves if there is a variability with different guitar pup – amp set-ups….

    I got one this morning. The true bypass works very well. What left me speechless is the amount of tone sucking when it is engaged. I have a single coil strat going to a Suhr Badger 18, few effects through a Voodoo Lab Pedal Switcher and I must say that while the strat volume does a quite nice job and doesn’t steal a significant amount of treble and without having any treble bypass cap added (I noticed a very good performance in this sense with both my Cathode follower amps, the other one a Ceriatone 5e3), the Signal Pad engaged makes the sound veiled and muddy. I had a look inside and it has something more than a switch and a pot, but I can’t hear why. I’m not going to use adjectives for now….too early.
