Calibrating Your Whammy Pedal

[@ElSlabo]

AMAZING!!! Just spent an hour taking mine apart and cleaning all the contacts. Trying to troubleshoot it not working. Thought it was a paperweight till I found your vid! Thanks for resurrecting it from the dead for me!!! No silly intro, no patreon/like/subscribe pandering either. Just good old unfiltered vintage RUclips!

[@jasonmankowski4617]

Even though this video is 6yrs old. It's still relivent. Thankyou from Australia

I dug out my whammy pedal having not used it in a few years.. I actually pulled off the black cushions due to the pedal not returning to pitch in the heel position. Watched this video only to remember that I knew how to do this several years ago but had completely forgotten. Where's the super glue

[@2014JAB]

Benjamin Mitchell Super glue? A trip to Walmart it is!

[@eldesgraciado6690]

Thank you, buddy. I just got one IV from a guy on Craigslist, plugged it in at home, and it was doing the same thing. I was about to call him back to return his broken POS but your video avoided that. Fixed it, AWESOME.

[@2hi2dye]

Same

[@thedeserthead]

Fantastic mate, thanks for this video. Mines been like this for a while and just never got round to looking at it, thought it was gonna be adjusting the inners

[@ko4kin]

very helpful especially with the wiggle thing! Thanks

[@josesilveira1439]

That really helped man... thanks 👍. I was very near to removing the cushions.

[@yourfavcodplayer33]

Thanks for the video I didn't know this I feel my sweep takes too long to effect I'm gonna try this maybe it will fix that

[@brunosarue]

Thanks a lot, dude! I have forgotten how to calibrate it!!!

[@metalforlife83]

Thank you sooooo much, you're a savior، I nearly looked everywhere to solve this problem, now I feel like I have so much control on the pedal

[@carlosbraga6718]

Thank you man! I was about to open mine...

[@alfredogonzalez8573]

[@antonurban222]

[@antonurban222]

2014JAB yes)) really helpful!!! ✌️🤗

[@ace4evr]

Thanks dude! I had this problem before but my bandmate fixed it for me. Happened a few days ago as well, now I know what to do. Thanks a bunch dude, I love using this pedal :)

[@CHAOSDEATHCULT]

Mine just won't calibrate, no matter what it only shows the lowest dot when it smacks the bottom, I might have impatiently ground my nubs of years ago but still, the whole "play space" before kicking in should make that not matter, right? ugh

[@CHAOSDEATHCULT]

Okay I got it, just ignore the lights & set it how you want... Sorry. duh moment

[@ewatkins9602]

[@brianzielkeii7540]

Thank you, thank you, thank you. You saved me 200 bucks. Thank you!!!

[@theishjort]

i bought one used, without the power suply. i finnaly got around to buy the right power suply but when i put it in it just makes noices when i play on the bas, and the dry signal is not working. when i put in wet it sound like a very bad distortion pedal and i have to play hard before any sound comes out. everything works, the led and bottons. is it worth fixing ?

[@2014JAB]

Dedicated Bass Oof. You may have to trade it in for a different one, unless there’s a guitar shop that could fix it for you.

[@jacoboovalle8546]

Great video you are amazing!

[@tfang893]

I will get a Whammy V at my birthday and I want to know how to know when the whammy needs to be calibrated. Please reply and no negative replies :)

[@2014JAB]

KID GUITARIST The Whammy V is actually better, and the way you calibrate it should be the same as the Whammy IV. I personally wish I bought the Whammy V, because it has the rubber cushion on the treadle.

[@tfang893]

2014JAB Thanks

[@SundewRed]

KID GUITARIST how is it? thinking about getting one soon

[@javibrites]

it did help man!!! cheers!

[@sebastiaan.visser]

Thanks bro!

[@memolapinkfloyd]

Thanks !

[@Edis90Vienna]

Oh man thanks

[@rhinojaxx4197]

I looked for the manual before I thought of chopping off the cushion

[@2014JAB]

Good for you. The residue leaves some black dust below the treadle. Not too bad though. 😁

[@redsunstudiomixrec5017]

Thx you so much you are my hero

[@RosembergSantos]

Hey, Dude. Thank you so fuckin' much for this vídeo! I owe you one!

[@thebetterdad]

Awesome! This really works!. Don´t take the rubbers out!

[@CarlozOlivosStrings]

It really works!! ty!

[@RiqueDropsBanter]

wow, spent an hour dismantle it, edit the insides, put it back together, test, hearing it fail.

[@gabrielszohner6243]

Awesome thank you...I was about to trade mine in thinking it's busted and on a whim I found this .....at least I know how dumb I am now lol

[@2014JAB]

I was trying to get the minimum parameter to the heal, so I nubbed down the pads, then I thought about Googling electronic problems with the pedal. Then, I found out how to recalibrate it. Lol. That was 5 1/2 years ago, and I use a Pitch Fork with an exp pedal instead now.

[@NefariousDreary]

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@brandonbennett7678]

Now I feel dumb for returning mine back to guitar center

[@2014JAB]

Brandon Bennett Oh no! That’s unfortunate. Lol
