Ever noticed that your wah pedal loses range and impact when placed before a Fuzz Face or Fuzz Face-style pedal? Guitarists have been fighting this problem since the late ’60s.
The Foxrox Wah Retrofit is the classic solution. It is a self-contained JFET buffer/amp circuit designed to be installed inside your wah pedal, giving it the output strength it needs to cut through fuzz pedals without losing sweep, depth or character.
By adding a proper output section to the wah circuit, the Foxrox Wah Retrofit helps restore the full range and musical response of vintage-style wah pedals. It works especially well with classic inductor-based wah circuits, including many vintage wahs and high-end boutique models.
