- chase tone trutalk wah pot Hey guys!
My pal Desmond gave me a shout the other day, with an old 70's vox was that needed some attention!
So, here I dug in and just really fixed what was needed, sometimes, if it sounds good, it should stay that way!
check out ChaseTone1

also, thanks to Desmond for letting me work on it!

I hope you guys can use some of this and apply it to your own wah wah maintenance!
PEACE!
Something to remember, when setting up the pot and setting it to "full treble," by turning the pot all the way to the treble side... make sure you compress the pedal all the way down, as if you are trying to turn the pedal on/off before setting the gear. If you set the pot to maximum treble without doing this, each time you turn the pedal on and off you will be over-extending the pot and pushing it further than it's meant to go.

Thanks Nik! Down the rabbit hole on all your wah vids… what on earth is that great looking firebird?
NIK!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I'm so excited to get this back! YOU ARE A BAD DUDE!
The video is Gold.. But the last seconds are Platinum!
This channel has quickly became one of my favorite channels to watch. Great content and tones! Always eager to hear/see what's next! Dude can play! Glad I found this channel!
Just did this exact mod. Took the pedal to the next level, thanks!!
Well I learned a new trick watching this yesterday. Took one of my builds apart (that has a Chase Tru Talk in it, definitely dig it) and angled it to get that last tooth on the gear. Haven't had a chance to try it yet but I feel like it turned enough to give me just that little bit more high end that I was missing! Great video, now I need to get my TDK Thomas Organ out at volume and it might knock the Jen spec Fasel crybaby off my little board...
That sounds amazing for a TDK. I have crybaby with one on the way and hope it sounds that good after I change the pot. I put a TRUE talk in a Thomas Organ stack of dimes recently and the improvement was really dramatic.
Great Vid ...thank you !
I use one of these pots with my Roger Mayer Red Lion wah and it sounds terrific!
Your Wahs allows sound PERFECT! Really, just right. Maybe it’s how you play it, AND how they are? Me like!
Well, this one isnt mine, but much like pickup height, you can spend alot of time adjusting and trimming stoppers just to dial the sweep in. I have fun doing it
You can take a pretty shit entry level wah and absolutely beef it up into a working man's wah on a budget with these pots, had one in my V845 for years now and no hint of scratchiness.
I absolutely believe it changes the Q and gives it that liquid feel.
1:31 played over and over again it is pretty funny.
Ha
Killer vid, very helpful. I"m going to do my V847 with a Tru Talk this weekend.
Killer wha wha tone and soulful playing 👍
Love these vids. Thanks Nik!
nice soldering tip thanks
Enjoy! Thanks
Popped in to say Hi Bro, Great Vid as always and Good to see and hear your doing great Peace !
Be well dude! See you soon hopefully!
Great video once again. Nevertheless, what I didn't see you do in the video is put some white grease in that pot. I've found that it's essential to put some kind of lube to the rack and/or the pot in order to minimise the friction between them that could cause either a squeeky noise or put the pot under unnecessary stress . That's my only advice. Keep up the great content you create. Can't wait to see the Jazzmaster refret.
Yes. If it needed it i would have. There looked to be some automotive grease on the treadle, and that was more than need. I also like to push back on that loop to keep it in place but not wedged against the arm! Jazzmaster video coming monday or weds. Stay tuned and thanks for your interest!
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 Oh I see. The grease was not visible in the video, but it makes total sense that it already had some to begin with.
I would not advise putting grease into the potentiometer itself. Electrical Contact Spray is great however. I believe that style of potentiometer is sealed anyways (the Chase Tone one), but there might be a trick to lubing them internally? Real McCoy Custom, R weaver FX, Area 51 Tube Audio, & Fulltone are great recommendations as well for Wah-Wah potentiometers!
@@pedaloof6917 not inside the wiper. On the threads I meant.
Man Nik you really know your wahs bro great video
your friend Desmond is a lucky guy, he scored a good one TDK inductor, TDK inductors from that era are two tyoes: one sounds great the other sounds dull and lifeless, same casing, the only way to know if it is a good one is having a multimeter. Congrats
The "good" ones have JAPAN printed on them along with the 5103.
As usual Great info Nik
Thanks Man
Could you do a video taking like a standard gcb95 wah n replacing pots ect to get better sound
Sure. If you have one, send it and i will see what i can do with it
I like your finger picking.
Could it be that my wah vox jen has lost that gain? You recommended me the chase tone pot and it improved incredible
SOUNDSGREAT🎉🎉
1:31 thats the best wah tone I've ever heard, articulate and really vocal the sweep is great as well :))) what kinda inductor is that;))))?
The tru-icars have been sold out for some time now. Chase Tone only sells the tru-talk pots
Apologies. Corrected in the title. Ive been using the Tru Icar since the start, just used to saying that. Thank you!
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 No worries. Loved the video :)
Hey Nik, love this video! Looking for some advice on pot replacement of a 100k circular AB (RV4) pot in a 70’s DeArmond Weeper Wah. Would appreciate any advice and knowledge you have on a suitable replacement. Cheers!
Chase Tone!!
Love this stuff. Love your Hendrix playing.
Be awsome if you shared some chords n licks
Those pots still available?
I just disassembled a scratchy AB pot and cleaned it.
Went to clean another noisy Wah pot and found that it had been replaced with a Dunlop Hot Potz that's worn out and no way to clean it.
Looks totally sealed up plastic.
Need to replace it.
Yes. Reach out and tell him i sent you. He will help you out!
@@theriffwniksevigny5473
Thank you kindly 👍
@@theriffwniksevigny5473
Reached out to Kyle.
Got zip?
Hey man awesome video; I liked the one under $100, and came right here to see more. I am new to wah's, and I recently bought a jh-1 but I hear something strange: if I go slowly with the sweep, I find a point where the volume increases and there's a resonance, and as soon as I move the foot the volume drops and the functionality gorw back to standard. What's the issue there? Is it the pot as in this video? Thanks a ton 🙏
Hey nik! It would be awesome if you make a series comparing actual wahs and fuzzes with vintage ones.. would love to know your opinion on the standard gcb-95 and how would you modifiy/ tune one up to get some vintage wah tones
That old pot looks like a centralab
Would just adjusting the existing pot and leg produce similar results or does the chasetone pot give you more sweep? I have a vox wah but it doesn't seem to have as large of a sweep as I like. Enjoy your vids.
Alright alright alright. Cool video. Hey Nick have you ever tried the Chase Tone Fuzz Fella? What a magnum pedal. I ordered mine today. I love all of Kyle Chases gear. Supreme hand made NOS.
Yes. Video coming soon on that one!
Awesome. Thank you. Thanks for all of your videos. Keep up the good work bro.
How are the Casledyne pots I bought a couple but haven't done the deed yet Those sound good Hmmm Great vid Love his motto
Im sure they are great. I know VenusWitch wah uses them and his wahs sound great.
SOLD!!! BOUGHT ONE!!!!!
Right on Ben.
for that money even with shipping to australia [ which was pretty cheap] i think why would i not buy one.
Nik, great tones again man !
Anyone want to chime in and offer a suggestion as to which of the Vox wahs i should be looking at these days? (My wahs were all either borrowed or sold over the years as i’ve not been using them for a long time, but feeling the need for one again after that vid.. )
Vintage is not really an option big $$$ - and there seems to be more models than ever. So what would you recommend out of the V847-A, V847 USA, V846-HW, V846 Clyde McCoy Reissue, something else??
You can find one of these early to mid 70s TDK ones fairly cheap, cheaper than a new wah
Nice video and demo. I have a 90's Dunlap cry baby wha, it sucks. Do you think the Chase Tone pot replacement would work in it? The problem is that it's either all treble or all bass. No juicy flow....let me know if possible.
If a better sweep is what u are after, then yes, a better pot will help!
Hey man, I want to do this to my old TDK wah. The link for the pot is a 100k instead of the sold out 275k version. What do you think the difference would be? Thanks............
The vintage ones were 100k. You will love the tones!
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 Right on! Thanks man....
Ride on! Really nice tone man! Have to ask, what kind of amp you use?
Deluxe reverb!
Nick whats the Firebird 1?
Greco!
I have a Fulton Clyde deluxe that needs help can you help me
Nick, ever play a Chase Tone Gypsy Wah??
Yes. One of the first run. Very great wah.
Hi Nik would really like one of those wahs the way you have set up
Do you sell them?
What's the best way to contact you please?
For the dollar Bill🎶
U.S. Dollar Bill🎶
funky dollar Bill🎶
u.s. dollar Bill🎶
I checked the web site the true -talk pots are still being sold but The true- icar pots are still unavailable :/
hey! my vox wha catches AM radio stations..? i bought it from some dude on craigslist along time ago. it's got issues
model v847. can i fix it dyi?
Does Kyle still make the tru-icar pot anymore?
I got a few of the ‘tru-talk’ pots but ain’t really diggin’ them
What are your thoughts on the Clyde McCoy reissue from 2004?
They are great. Just repaired one
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 Thanks for the response Nik. Great SRV chops you have my man. Just obtained the Soloist which knocked my ts808 off the board. First time In years. We'll see if that Vox can replace the Cry baby 535Q, which I like the versatility of.
I have a newer vox V847 and was wondering what mods you would recommend.
Is this pot specially made for a VOX wah or could I use it aswell in my Dunlop wah?
Same deal
Nik what gauge and brand strings do you use and like best
Curt mangan nickel 11-56 on Strats, Eb tuning. 10-52 on gibson standard
How is the pot in newer wahs?
They are great, but myself and many wah junkies, we are always chasing the sweep and quack of the icar pot. And i really like what the chasetone pot does for that!
Wonder if this will fir a mini was I’ve got a Joe Gagan film can inductor in it so this would be epic
Show us your wah technic, most of the time is the fingers not the gear...
Great sounding wah, btw.
Will those work in a Crybaby also?
Yes!
