Something to remember, when setting up the pot and setting it to "full treble," by turning the pot all the way to the treble side... make sure you compress the pedal all the way down, as if you are trying to turn the pedal on/off before setting the gear. If you set the pot to maximum treble without doing this, each time you turn the pedal on and off you will be over-extending the pot and pushing it further than it's meant to go.

Thanks Nik! Down the rabbit hole on all your wah vids… what on earth is that great looking firebird?

NIK!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm so excited to get this back! YOU ARE A BAD DUDE!

The video is Gold.. But the last seconds are Platinum!

This channel has quickly became one of my favorite channels to watch. Great content and tones! Always eager to hear/see what's next! Dude can play! Glad I found this channel!

Just did this exact mod. Took the pedal to the next level, thanks!!

Killer wha wha tone and soulful playing 👍

Well I learned a new trick watching this yesterday. Took one of my builds apart (that has a Chase Tru Talk in it, definitely dig it) and angled it to get that last tooth on the gear. Haven't had a chance to try it yet but I feel like it turned enough to give me just that little bit more high end that I was missing! Great video, now I need to get my TDK Thomas Organ out at volume and it might knock the Jen spec Fasel crybaby off my little board...

That sounds amazing for a TDK. I have crybaby with one on the way and hope it sounds that good after I change the pot. I put a TRUE talk in a Thomas Organ stack of dimes recently and the improvement was really dramatic.

Love these vids. Thanks Nik!

I use one of these pots with my Roger Mayer Red Lion wah and it sounds terrific!

As usual Great info Nik Thanks Man

Man Nik you really know your wahs bro great video

Killer vid, very helpful. I"m going to do my V847 with a Tru Talk this weekend.

Popped in to say Hi Bro, Great Vid as always and Good to see and hear your doing great Peace !

You can take a pretty shit entry level wah and absolutely beef it up into a working man's wah on a budget with these pots, had one in my V845 for years now and no hint of scratchiness. I absolutely believe it changes the Q and gives it that liquid feel.

Your Wahs allows sound PERFECT! Really, just right. Maybe it’s how you play it, AND how they are? Me like!

Love this stuff. Love your Hendrix playing. Be awsome if you shared some chords n licks

1:31 played over and over again it is pretty funny.

Hey nik! It would be awesome if you make a series comparing actual wahs and fuzzes with vintage ones.. would love to know your opinion on the standard gcb-95 and how would you modifiy/ tune one up to get some vintage wah tones

nice soldering tip thanks

SOUNDSGREAT🎉🎉

I like your finger picking.

Could it be that my wah vox jen has lost that gain? You recommended me the chase tone pot and it improved incredible

1:31 thats the best wah tone I've ever heard, articulate and really vocal the sweep is great as well :))) what kinda inductor is that;))))?

Great video once again. Nevertheless, what I didn't see you do in the video is put some white grease in that pot. I've found that it's essential to put some kind of lube to the rack and/or the pot in order to minimise the friction between them that could cause either a squeeky noise or put the pot under unnecessary stress . That's my only advice. Keep up the great content you create. Can't wait to see the Jazzmaster refret.

your friend Desmond is a lucky guy, he scored a good one TDK inductor, TDK inductors from that era are two tyoes: one sounds great the other sounds dull and lifeless, same casing, the only way to know if it is a good one is having a multimeter. Congrats

Would just adjusting the existing pot and leg produce similar results or does the chasetone pot give you more sweep? I have a vox wah but it doesn't seem to have as large of a sweep as I like. Enjoy your vids.

Hey man awesome video; I liked the one under $100, and came right here to see more. I am new to wah's, and I recently bought a jh-1 but I hear something strange: if I go slowly with the sweep, I find a point where the volume increases and there's a resonance, and as soon as I move the foot the volume drops and the functionality gorw back to standard. What's the issue there? Is it the pot as in this video? Thanks a ton 🙏

Hey Nik, love this video! Looking for some advice on pot replacement of a 100k circular AB (RV4) pot in a 70’s DeArmond Weeper Wah. Would appreciate any advice and knowledge you have on a suitable replacement. Cheers!

Could you do a video taking like a standard gcb95 wah n replacing pots ect to get better sound

I have a newer vox V847 and was wondering what mods you would recommend.

How are the Casledyne pots I bought a couple but haven't done the deed yet Those sound good Hmmm Great vid Love his motto

The tru-icars have been sold out for some time now. Chase Tone only sells the tru-talk pots

Alright alright alright. Cool video. Hey Nick have you ever tried the Chase Tone Fuzz Fella? What a magnum pedal. I ordered mine today. I love all of Kyle Chases gear. Supreme hand made NOS.

Ride on! Really nice tone man! Have to ask, what kind of amp you use?

Nik, great tones again man ! Anyone want to chime in and offer a suggestion as to which of the Vox wahs i should be looking at these days? (My wahs were all either borrowed or sold over the years as i’ve not been using them for a long time, but feeling the need for one again after that vid.. ) Vintage is not really an option big $$$ - and there seems to be more models than ever. So what would you recommend out of the V847-A, V847 USA, V846-HW, V846 Clyde McCoy Reissue, something else??

Nice video and demo. I have a 90's Dunlap cry baby wha, it sucks. Do you think the Chase Tone pot replacement would work in it? The problem is that it's either all treble or all bass. No juicy flow....let me know if possible.

I checked the web site the true -talk pots are still being sold but The true- icar pots are still unavailable :/

hey! my vox wha catches AM radio stations..? i bought it from some dude on craigslist along time ago. it's got issues model v847. can i fix it dyi?

Those pots still available? I just disassembled a scratchy AB pot and cleaned it. Went to clean another noisy Wah pot and found that it had been replaced with a Dunlop Hot Potz that's worn out and no way to clean it. Looks totally sealed up plastic. Need to replace it.

That old pot looks like a centralab

I have a Fulton Clyde deluxe that needs help can you help me

Is this pot specially made for a VOX wah or could I use it aswell in my Dunlop wah?

Hi Nik would really like one of those wahs the way you have set up Do you sell them? What's the best way to contact you please?

SOLD!!! BOUGHT ONE!!!!!

What are your thoughts on the Clyde McCoy reissue from 2004?

Hey man, I want to do this to my old TDK wah. The link for the pot is a 100k instead of the sold out 275k version. What do you think the difference would be? Thanks............

Nik what gauge and brand strings do you use and like best

Nick whats the Firebird 1?

Nick, ever play a Chase Tone Gypsy Wah??

Does Kyle still make the tru-icar pot anymore?

How is the pot in newer wahs?

Show us your wah technic, most of the time is the fingers not the gear... Great sounding wah, btw.

For the dollar Bill🎶 U.S. Dollar Bill🎶 funky dollar Bill🎶 u.s. dollar Bill🎶

Will those work in a Crybaby also?
