i know that there are different kinds of T Wahs. one just says T-Wah, one says Touch Wah, but i have only seen a few like this one. the "T" is bold, but the word wah is smaller lettering. and the "T" in "Twah" is under the "W" instead of the usual "A." anyone know where this type stands in production date? and info?

There's more info on the TW-1 which explains the different versions on the main site:

Sorry, just realised it doesn't have dates on there!

Hmmm... not sure then. I'd be interested to find this out too as I have two TW-1 pedals - the 'Touch Wah' Logo version and the model where the 'T' is under the 'W'.

It'd be good to do a sweep like Bossarea is doing for the BF-2 to try and find out when the logos changed and production dates.

I know that Touch Wah was used at least up to serial 8000, most likely a bit longer. It was then replaced with the long dash version T Wah that lasted until approximately 13xx00. I have few serial numbers collected from TW-1s so the information is a bit sketchy so far.

As if that wasn't enough the TW-1 went through some circuit changes as well. I mentioned the different versions of the TW-1 in this thread: http://www.bossarea.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1293

Hey Bossarea - how about running a Poll like the BF-2 one for this as it'd be really interesting to try and get more data on when the logos changed?

If you're interested, my 'Touch-Wah' logo version is serial #7600. My 'T under the W' Logo version is serial #0300

Thanks for the serial numbers, fuzzface.
I'll collect together the serial numbers I already got and create a new thread.

Here's the 3 different types. They're really all the same size and colour. I spent very little time putting the image together

I recently bought a TW-1 with the T under W serial number 9500, old style box, silver screw and the manual says touch wah instead of T-wah. Maybe this is helpfull info.

Great, it fills a gap in the sheet above.

Not sure I understand "T under W short dash".
If the T is under the W it would have a long dash. Short dash has T under the a.
