Today I wanted to talk about the Dunlop SW-95, which is the “Slash” wah built to emulate some of Slash’s tones and configured to his specs. This wah has some interesting features. It first uses the Fasel inductor and has a gain circuit. Basically, has on board gain circuit that can be turned on separately from the main wah function. There are two knobs at the front of the pedal. One controls volume, and the other controls gain. It has a bright blue LED for on/off status. This wah requires 18v so 2 9v batteries are required to run this pedal.. or external power supply.
Here is the official description:
Like the guitarist himself, the Dunlop SW-95 Slash Wah is revolutionary and a classic at the same time. It sports a hot rod, metallic-red finish and a cutting edge, high gain circuit for a different and distinct sound. It also has a modified Fasel inductor for sweet, singing top end and upper midrange bite and sparkle on the wah. 18V operation yields tons of extra headroom. LED indicators for distortion on/off and wah on/off modes keep you clued in at all times. Top hat not included.
