italia wah V2, gagan-V846 mod to get real filmcan 60s tone!

Description: NOTE, THIS IS THE NEW V2 version, as heard in the upgraded june 10 2020 video. see joegagan on youtube to hear it. ( search at youtube Gagan Italia Wah 2020) Joe and Scott Gagan wah creation- ***** compare to other ' boutique' handwired vintage style wahs costing up to 2X as much. we promise to exceed your expectations for the true vintage 60s wah experience, regardless of price. if you don't agree, we'll even pay your return shipping with your 100% refund ********** "ITALIA" wah. the filmcan ( some say trashcan ?) experience. we did it! long months spent designing, testing, running computer simulations, measuring/testing original filmcan inductors and more;-- this resulted in capturing the elusive, rainbow-like, 'SQUISHY' tone that wah freaks consider one of the best classic wah tones of all time -- the late 60s italian made jen/vox 'filmcan' inductor wah. wah aficionados everywhere have praised the authenticity of the tone of this great pedal. read the raves at 'gear page' , 'DAM forum' and other guitar forums. features: - absolute minimum of parts used, for the most pure signal path. compare to other ''vintage style' or boutique wahs, we simply have the lowest parts count around. -new gagan hand wound inductor replicates the inductance, resistance and harmonic sweetness of the filmcan originals. you must play it and feel it to truly appreciate the response! - totally tune-able via the bias ( growl and lows) and volume ( sets input resistance for tailoring to various guitars , pickups etc) trimpots- internal to the wah. gagan marks the classic italia setting on the trimmers for future reference. -specially selected NOS and new parts for pure vintage response. REAN (better than switchcraft) best quality jacks for 50+ year jack durability. - each wah tuned by joe gagan in the final setup process, using marshall & fender tube amps with a great strat and ibanez artist classic 2 humbucker ( LP style) guitars. This assures that every italia has that near perfect 60s tone that made the early voxes famous. this is not an assembly line wah! - low gain vintage npn transistors for era-correct tones. -Bias trim allows tailoring of growl and low end content. - all carbon comp resistors ( exc input resistor ). -high quality military grade PCB. nice upgrade from the 60s originals. Original vox layout and board size. NOTE , PCB is the newer Gagan Italia V2 board - differs form photos. -famous castledine 100k ICAR replica pot. A very durable pot, which gets the true vintage tone due to the carbon construction. Modern plastic pots do not sound as warm in our tests. -power jack optional: modern 2.1 mm power supply input w/ reverse polarity protection and modern filtering available for an additional $29. please message at checkout for this option, you will be billed after initial purchase for the upgrade. please allow an additional 5 days handling time for us to schedule and perform this mod. soundsamples on youtube - SEARCH " f-KY8lY8S2o " -( ITALIA compared to REAL 69 vox V846 with filmcan ) OR search: ' hMUJaov-YaQ ' (humbuckers on music man sterling) NEW SOUNDCLIP marshall and fender amps with hot strat. = https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47CQ2T8TvKo or, message us for the direct links.

( http://www.ebay.com/itm/italia-wah-CUSTOM-AGED-ITALIA-pre-worn-choose-your-colors-/121668305361 ) POT adjust: as delivered, the italia has its max frequency range adjusted on the pot's gears. there is no more treble or bass available than the stock adjustment, however you could lessen treble at top end by adjusting it yourself. this will not increase bass, only lessen treble. do not attempt to get more treble, it is already all the way up, you would damage the pot when switching if turned any further to treble side.
