The Fulltone Standard Clyde Wah is one of the world's best wah pedal effects. Not only does it have a vocal-like quality of that of a muted trumpet, but the pedal when switched off is true-bypass and does not detract from the signal from the guitar to the amplifier.
The pedal is rugged, albeit the particular pedal I had purchased had a sensitive footswitch that required a softer "stomp" of the foot for the pedal to work correctly.
When one compares the Fulltone Standard Clyde Wah to other pedals, there, in my mind, is no comparison.
I have owned many other models and brands of wah pedals that are available on the market today and, to me, my search for the best pedal has ended.
That being said, your ears can only be the judge of what you should buy for any sort of guitar or sound related gear, but because I have played guitar for over the past 45 years, I would recommend this pedal for anyone who isn't sure of what to buy. You really can't go wrong with this wah, it's just that good.

Fulltone CLYDE Standard Wah Effect Pedal Clyde McCoy was a big-band Trumpet Player in the '60s... not a great musician, but one famous for getting a muted "wah wah" sound. This led to Vox trying to approximate this muted trumpet sound in a pedal... hence the Vox "Clyde McCoy" wah wah circa 1967.Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton used a Vox "Clyde McCoy" model wah wah. Photos taken during the recording of "Electric Ladyland" document Jimi's as being the "signature" model, featuring Clyde McCoy's name written out script style on the bottom plate. The other type of Clyde McCoy was the "picture" version, which had Clyde's photo on the bottomplate. The "signature" model, with it's great sounding "halo" inductor, is what the Fulltone CLYDE is modeled after.The Fulltone "CLYDE" was born from taking the best of the best of my more than 25 pc. vintage Vox wah collection, and analyzing every aspect... going so far as sacrificing a few of the vintage inductors to get it right.
