Anybody know where I can find a Colorsound inductor replacement? Apparently they are not the same specs as halos or fasels.

All the schematics I have seen indicate that they have a 500mH inductor, just like every other wah pedal out there. Why do you say that they have different specs?

That's what I've always seen too, but Stuart Castledine (www.wah-wah.co.uk) tells me they are different specs than halos.

That's news to me. What are the specs then? Is that a secret for him only to know?

Just for the record, I built a Colorsound inductor wah clone and it sounds great with a 500mH inductor.

I'm waiting on his answer still. 
I was just reading though your thread from last spring about the Colorosund wah. I may just have to go with what's available.   You used a yellow Dunlop fasel?

Paul Marossy

Yeah, a yellow Fasel is what I ended up with.
