Behringer Review | Bugera 6262-212 Review | Wah Modification

270 ohm resistor (or 220 ohm) replaces 390 ohm. .022uF capacitor replaces .01uF.  Red Fasel inductor replaces standard Dunlop inductor.   In the above circuit diagram, the parts highlighted in red are the new replacement parts, giving the Wah more gain, a fatter sweep and a much more pleasing vocal sound, especially with single coil pickups. You do not NEED to replace the standard Dunlop inductor to fatten this Wah up, however, the red Fasel inductor does improve the vocal quality.   The first stage buffer transistor and all it's components were completely removed from the Dunlop GCB-95 Crybaby Wah leaving it a vintage style 2 transistor circuit. This is because I use a Behringer Preamp pedal BEFORE the Wah. The need for this buffer circuit is eliminated as the Behringer pedal has it's own buffer circuit working as long as there is a battery or power supply connected to it. (As do all modern FET switching pedals) I always have found going through the least amount of circuitry keeps the original signal as "big" as possible. If you plug DIRECTLY into your Wah, don't take the Wah's buffer out. (leave it as is) Just to note, I think the craze of "true bypass" switching is overated & not necessary when you have a buffered Wah, it's only really worthwhile if you are plugging your guitar directly into a 2 transistor vintage unbuffered model to eliminate "tone sucking". This is also probably unnecessary, but - all power supply capacitors (220uF and .1uF), plug, diode and 1K resistor were removed as well. The original CryBaby's only used a battery and did not have these components. I only use a couple of pedals for live work anyway, so batteries are fine with me. (They will last for ages in a Wah pedal.) I hope this helps cure your "screechy" Wah pedal! Kind Regards Rob
