Hi Franzoni & Guys

I have been looking at (zooming in & out of) the posted pictures, of the VOX.

Except for the Inductor....
It looks identical to my 70's Italian Jen Red Fasel Wah.

I know that these were made by Jen for Dallas Arbiter.
And also for many other brands.

Interesting tidbit.
The weight of the original Italian Jen's is about Half the weight
of the more modern Jim dunlop GCB-95 wah's.

I have both a Red Fasel JEN...
And I just picked up, & repaired a White Fasel JEN (Mister CryBaby Super).
which took all of 5 mins & $6au to repair.

While they both have exactly the same housings, the circuit boards are different, the PCB layout on the White Fasel version, is almost mirror imaged.

I think Bastyra posted a pic of his (2) crybaby's & one was the white Fasel type - Identical to the one I repaired.

Sorry if I went a bit off topic.

Perhaps I should have called this topic"
"What would/could you buy for $800" - "That's not a Vintage Vox Wah"

Regards Dr. Bob
