dunlop owns vox now?!

[alazary]

i was about to buy a vox wah from a kid today at school and i was excited to get one finally and i noticed that it had the dunlop logo on the back plate. i was really surprised and i hate dunlop, they keep buying out all these companies.... so my question is, how long has this been going on? can i still find a vox co wah around on ebay or something? :cry:

AFAIK Vox are owned by Korg........ unless there have been recent developments

i think dunlop makes there pedals.....to any vox expert (ex - voxman) what would you say is a good vox wah?

 

[Voxman]

Depends on how much dosh one has to spend which then takes you up levels to better sounding ones ... but generally the new Vox Clyde sounds good but not quite as good as an old Clyde .... Teese are good too .... so these are generalizations and we all know all generalizations are bad! :funny: A Vox will not say dunlop anywhere..... if ya need a pic of the new Clyde I'll post it for ya!

Check ya PM ... but ... here's my suggestion ... The V848 Picture wah .... there's really a lot of wah's out there and they all sound different ... but again the Teese sound very vocal also!  here's the 848 pics....

Someone came over with that Boss one where you can do many different wah pedals and it was the most fun foolin ith it but the real old picture and script wahs blew it away!wah's

Oh forgot about that true bypass thing ....the new ones have it the old one's need the switch n wiring ,, that could be a big deal in most situations!
