Around 160 Euro, i think
Where did you purchase this item?
Rock Palace, The Hague
Is this item new or used?
New, at least i think so


Features:
It's a wah with chrome top and rubber
Construction:
Nice and sturdy
Sound:
Great, it has some kind of a midboost when pressing down, perfect for the Hendrix style solo's
Ease of Use:
Piece of cake
Reliability:
I haven't got a problem with it, exept that the rubber is full of dirt and coming off (i guess it wasn't brand new at all)
Overall:
Almost perfect, the only thing is it hasn't got true bypass, and that annoys the ###### out of me. 8/9
