Decent wah sound using dod fx25b

[wally8]

Hi all.

Trying to get a decent ish wah sound using the fx25b on my old passive fender p bass. I can hardly get any wah at all even with the sensitivity cranked. I want to use it on the fender coz it sounds very geezer butler.

It's fine on my musicman as I suppose its active with a stronger signal. Any ideas? Looking for that geezer sound ish on the nib solo. (think he used a morley wah pedal).

another pedal before it (eq) as a booster?

What Paul said - even a cheap EQ pedal (I used a Behringer BEQ-700), set flat with just the output level boosted should help here.

Out of interest, are you using a limiter or compressor before the Dod? I made the mistake of putting a Boss limiter before the Dod once, rendering the pedal useless!

Thanks for the advice. I'm just using the fx25 straight from amp to guitar. I've got a vt pedal in the effects loop of the amp itself. The fx25 just hates my p-bass. Only use the fx25 on nib.
