Some time ago I built the modable wah from GGG... I love it! HOWEVER< I cant hear a difference in the inductors. Im using a yellow and a red fasel, When I run them together it sounds amazing, but when I switch from one to the other- no noticable change in tone. Are they that close in tone, or do I maybe not have it wired up correctly?
Since the diagram on GGG shows the larger 'stack of dimes' type of 4 connection inductors, I planted these in the only set of holes they'll fit in, with both cups facing in to the board.
Does this sound about right?

Thanks!

Audioguy.

show a picture?

i can safely say the two sound different, but...its not night and day, to me.

do you have any other inductors to change between?
no longer the battle of midway...(i left that band)...

i hate signatures with gear lists/crap for sale....

i am a wah pervert...ask away...

OH yeah... the pots- are those Lin or Log? Im not sure if Im getting the correct sweep on it... I mounted them like a Dimebag wah, and used lins. I found sweet spots, so I dont tweak it much... just thought I would ask in case Im missing something.

I might be able to do a pic...
Sadly no other inductors available.

what do you mean no other inductors are available?

I just meant I have none on hand to experiment with... anyway... heres a quick diagram. I think you sould be able to get the picture of what Im doing.

I can hear hardly any difference between the red and yellow Fasels. I have used both of them in several different circuits.

Thanks for the info Paul. Its never really bothered me in the past because when I use them together it sounds amazing... so I almost never switch to Y or R. I just thought I would check to see if I was missing something. I might have to experiment with some of the other inductors floating around on the web.
