However, an unintended but music-changing use with electric guitar turned the Wah pedal into a vital tool for renowned artists such as Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton, driving the creation of now-legendary performances and songs. From the 1960s to today, the Wah pedal has become an essential tool for guitarists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new Real McCoy wah pedal perfectly emulates the original wah down to the component level. VOX engineers have worked hard to unravel the mysteries of the vintage McCoy wah model, resulting in a pedal that meticulously replicates the exact tonal characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Real McCoy is voiced for the iconic nasal tone of the original wah model, with an accentuated midrange that imparts a warm and melodic character to your guitar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pursuit of the Ultimate Vintage Wah\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new Real McCoy wah is unlike any wah on the market today – it is built with custom-designed parts to fully replicate the original. This includes newly designed inductors, transistors, and potentiometers, with hand-selected resistors, capacitors, and wiring to complete the circuit. This exact recreation extends to the exterior as well, with a body molded from a 3D scan of the vintage model, and a focus on details down to the screws and font on the underside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlocking the Mystery Behind the Iconic Sound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe journey to the Real McCoy wah pedal was started by acquiring a mint condition vintage McCoy wah from 1967, referred to at VOX as the “Holy Grail” – the epitome of the ideal unit. Exhaustive A\/B testing was conducted, systematically comparing its frequency response against that of other more conventional vintage units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCONNECTIONS INPUT jack (monaural phone jack), OUTPUT jack (monaural phone jack)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePOWER SUPPLY 9V dry cell batteries (6LF22\/6LR61) (sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBATTERY LIFE approx. 100 hours or more (with alkaline batteries)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCURRENT CONSUMPTION 540µA (9V DC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIMENSIONS (W X D X H) 102 x 252 x 80 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWEIGHT 1300 g (excluding batteries)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eACCESSORIES 1300 g (excluding batteries)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Vox","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52848945397871,"sku":"VRM1","price":399.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2992\/8815\/files\/VRM1.jpg?v=1774474694","url":"https:\/\/sol-school-of-music-and-instrument-store-2.myshopify.com\/products\/vox-real-mccoy-wah-pedal-black-vrm1","provider":"Sol School of Music and Instrument Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
