Vox/Keeley Wah Pedal REVIEW & DEMO (GG-303) How to play

  • 0:09 - 0:10
    Hello!
  • 0:10 - 0:11
    Justin here.
  • 0:11 - 0:13
    Today we're going to be reviewing and
  • 0:13 - 0:18
    looking at the Keely Modified Vox Wah Wah.
  • 0:19 - 0:21
    It's got things poking out all over
  • 0:22 - 0:25
    it's probably the most comprehensively
  • 0:25 - 0:27
    shape of a Wah Wah that I've ever had
  • 0:27 - 0:28
    There are lots of little switches
  • 0:28 - 0:29
    and stuff on it that make it
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    sound really really different.
  • 0:31 - 0:34
    Very very very cool Wah pedal.
  • 0:34 - 0:36
    Um this one's actually mine for a change.
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    Most of the one's I've reviewed haven't
  • 0:38 - 0:40
    been mine. But uh, this is a pretty fine
  • 0:40 - 0:41
    sounding Wah Wah, so
  • 0:41 - 0:42
    let's have a close up
  • 0:42 - 0:43
    and look at what all
  • 0:43 - 0:44
    of these knobs and switches do.
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    Okay, here's the Keeley
  • 0:48 - 0:50
    Modified Vox Wah Wah pedal.
  • 0:51 - 0:52
    Pretty standard
  • 0:52 - 0:54
    kind of Vox shell, if you like, but
  • 0:54 - 0:56
    it's got lots of other features.
  • 0:56 - 0:58
    We've got here a little bass switch
  • 0:59 - 1:01
    which could flick between three
  • 1:01 - 1:03
    different types of bass response that
  • 1:03 - 1:04
    you'll hear in the demo.
  • 1:04 - 1:06
    Note that the little label on here is
  • 1:06 - 1:07
    just something I've stuck on.
  • 1:07 - 1:09
    The original just has the switches.
  • 1:09 - 1:10
    But I put it on there 'cuz
  • 1:10 - 1:12
    I'm a bit dopey and I forget
  • 1:12 - 1:14
    what things are controlling what.
  • 1:14 - 1:16
    We've also got a mid-control.
  • 1:16 - 1:17
    Which is like a port here which
  • 1:17 - 1:19
    controls the amount of middle sound
  • 1:19 - 1:21
    that gets swept by the Wah Wah.
  • 1:21 - 1:23
    We've also got two modes for this pedal.
  • 1:23 - 1:26
    Which is a little switch on the top between
  • 1:26 - 1:27
    'mellow' and 'funk'.
  • 1:27 - 1:31
    That adds quite a difference to the sound
  • 1:31 - 1:33
    of the pedal as you'll hear
  • 1:33 - 1:34
    in the demo that's coming up.
  • 1:34 - 1:37
    It's also has just on the bottom
  • 1:37 - 1:39
    corner there a little blue LED
  • 1:39 - 1:40
    which the original Voxs don't,
  • 1:40 - 1:41
    just a little
  • 1:41 - 1:43
    ON switch for you to know that
  • 1:43 - 1:45
    it's working and it's all sounding cool.
  • 1:46 - 1:48
    Most excellent Wah Wah pedal
  • 1:48 - 1:50
    Really versatile, like it a lot.
  • 1:50 - 1:53
    Think I like the Boudoir slightly better
  • 1:53 - 1:54
    for the tone but this is because
  • 1:54 - 1:56
    of its versatility, this is a really
  • 1:56 - 1:57
    cool pedal too.
  • 1:57 - 1:59
    Okay! Go check out me fiddling about
  • 1:59 - 2:00
    with it now.
  • 2:01 - 2:03
    Okay [starts playing]
  • 2:03 - 2:05
    Okay, pedal on. So here we go
  • 2:05 - 2:07
    testing the variable rate
  • 2:07 - 2:09
    [test strumming]
  • 2:28 - 2:31
    [playing a fast bouncy tune]
  • 3:06 - 3:08
    [slower, more "wobbly" tune]
  • 3:36 - 3:38
    Okay now I'm gonna switch
  • 3:38 - 3:40
    it over to"funk".
  • 3:41 - 3:43
    [test strumming]
  • 3:50 - 3:52
    Just give it less range
  • 3:53 - 3:55
    [test strumming]
  • 3:57 - 3:59
    [fast, bouncy tune]
  • 4:23 - 4:25
    [speeds up, playing fast]
  • 4:40 - 4:42
    Try turning the mid controller
  • 4:42 - 4:43
    now to halfway
  • 4:46 - 4:48
    [fast, bouncy tune]
  • 5:16 - 5:18
    We'll try these bass boosts
  • 5:20 - 5:22
    [test strumming]
  • 5:42 - 5:44
    Now the bass setting
  • 5:45 - 5:47
    [test strumming]
  • 6:07 - 6:09
    I think I preferred the front one
  • 6:12 - 6:15
    [fast bouncy test strumming]
  • 6:39 - 6:41
    [slower test strumming]
  • 8:48 - 8:50
    Okay now putting it back to "mellow".
  • 8:56 - 8:58
    [test strumming into tune]
  • 9:27 - 9:28
