Hi,

just my report about my latest mod: I replaced the stock inductor of my Crybaby GCB-95 with a Yellow Fasel inductor and I'm stunned about how better my wah now sounds!!

My wah is now warmer sounding (no more harshness in the toes-down position), bass is improved and the sweep of the pedal also improved!
Excluding the true bypass mod (no input buffer, also), my wah is otherwise stock. I've tried the various common mods in the past (the 33k resistor, the 0.01u cap, BC109 transistors), but I've always come back to stock: however, this time I will keep the mod for sure!
Unfortunately I can't measure the difference in Henries between the two inductors, but I can say this part plays a major role in defining your wah sound. Give it a try!
