Caline CP-31 Hot Spice Wah Pedal

Product Information

I have for some time been looking for a cheap smashed up Cry Baby to remove the guts and build it into a small case to use as a fixed wah. I have been toying with the idea of using a wah for a bit of the before mentioned tone control thing on a solo. I would most certainly want one of the new Mini ones because of space. The Caline products are well made I have never had a problem with them. Last but not least a Cry Baby sound is bullet proof. Yes they cloned it very close ...perhaps with a tiny bit less high end. But they have nailed the sound of it going thru the sweep!! lowest volume. It is early days but I did not find the enough of a smooth transition from very quite to full on. It may however work great as a swell pedal for making faux violin effects. The Hot Spice is a great sounding Wah Pedal from Caline which will let you get those classic funky wah tones. It's incredibly easy to manipulate with your foot to get the exact wah tones you want. The great think about this pedal is its small footprint. It's a similar size to a standard guitar pedal so doesn't take up too much space on your pedal board. There's a switch which activates the volume mode. With this the pedal functions like a standard volume pedal. You can dictate the minimum volume with the volume control on the side of the pedal.

The pedal feels incredibly well constructed and durable. It's true bypass and runs off a 9v power supply.I have just received mine. I played the real deal for years. The longer plate to rest my foot feels a bit awkward but that may pass in a few days, The sweep seems a bit longer too.
