Yeah, it doesn't track well (PS-5). To be fair, it's 11 years old. Definitely time to update that bad boy.

That was cool as, Boss should make a drum machine in a foot pedal Only a simple one where you can save your rythyms and tap-tempo. Must be a dual-pedal though.

I'll reiterate my request for an RE-2. I'd be more happy with a true analog DM-5(or whatever they wanna call it) but I know Boss doesn't "backtrack"...

As long as I am asking for polyphonic pedals, I would like to see a OC-20G and WP-20G that didn't require the GK pick-up.

Boss makes A LOT of cool effects, but i've never seen a boss "analog" wah pedal, just the pw 10 v wah (digital if im not wrong) and i dont like it that much... it would be cool a real analog boss wah! and i know that reisues not are part of the style of boss but i REALLY want a reissue of the boss CE-2.

Hi AdrianCrash

Welcome to the forum from Australia.

Boss did make an analog Wah, many years ago.
it's called the PW-1 Rocker Wah
It uses a hall effect magnetic sensor in place of the more standard pot,
and will last till the magnet drops off, & never gets scratchy.

I was fortunate enough to pick one up a few years back.
it's very long compared to a Crybaby & the current PW-10.

Mine even had the black vinyl protective carry case.
Apologies if you feel I'm boasting
I was really trying to give you as much info as I know about it.

You can find info on it in the Bossarea Product Reference section of the main board.
http://www.bossarea.com/

PW-1 Rocker Wah
http://www.bossarea.com/other/pw1.asp

There are other pedals in the series as well.
PD-1 Rocker Distortion
I belive member ChristoMephisto has one of these.

And the PV-1 Rocker Volume
All the Rocker series use the magnetic Hall effect sensor
in place of the Pot.

I hope this helps.

Regards Dr. Bob

PS - they don't use a standard 9V battery.
They use two C-Size cells running into a DC to DC converter
that steps the 1.5V+1.5V = 3V up to about 10V internally.

Becase of their size & current capacity, the C-Cells last nearly forever.
In fact they last so long, that you have to remember to take them out
when not in use, in case they leak.

When I opened the one I bought.
The batteries (date Code) in my PW-1 were nearly 10 years old & just still able to operate the pedal.

Another unknown fact about the Rocker series, that is never talked about.
Is that they all have Silver screws....
I can hear the rest of the members here going ----- Hmmm???

Regards again Dr. Bob
