ZVEX Effects Seek Wah II Step-Filter Pedal

General

The Z.Vex Seek Wah II is everything you'd expect of Z.Vex Effects and a bit more. Rather than drawing an arc, this kind-of-sort-of autowah stompbox jumps through a 4, 6, or 8 step filter, the tempo of which can be adjusted with the fitted Speed pot. Each step has its very own dedicated control so you can set the cut-off frequency of the band-pass filter to directly mess with how bright or dull each step sounds. This mind-boggling and twisted take on wah-theory comes in a hand-painted housing.

The Remarkable and Esteemed Z.Vex

The founder of Z-Vex Effects, Zachary Vex, is no stranger to the land of innovative effect building - in fact he's renowned. By mounting one of these hand-painted stompboxes onto your board, you're joining forces with the many revered guitarists who have done it before you. Each pedal has been handmade by Zachary's self-appointed elves (so he says), and while these hand-painted editions are much sought after, you can also get your grubby mitts on the same sound quality from the screen-printed Vexter Series pedals for a little less cash.
