Dynamic Wah Pedal
Boss - AW-3

"wah" effects in a compact pedalThe BOSS AW-3 Dynamic Wah pedal gives guitarists a wide variety of classic auto-wah and dynamic wah effects, along with a new "Humanizer" effect which can simulate human vowel sounds. A Bass input gives you a range of funky wah sounds for bass guitar.
The AW-3 Dynamic Wah is the first compact wah pedal to incorporate human voice-type sounds using a new “Humanizer” Mode. You can also choose from standard up-and-down wah effects, plus a Tempo Mode and resonant synth-like Sharp Mode.
