Digitech Whammy

The Digitech Whammy relies on digital processing for its pitch shifting functions. This effects your guitar's tone even when the pedal is bypassed. The Whammy has a noticeable increase in treble which is often described as sounding sterile. The pedal also adds a small amount of noise when in the signal chain. A true bypass modification allows the signal to pass through completely untouched when the pedal is bypassed. The dry out remains unmodified; if you use the dry out please contact us for the best solution.

Since the Whammy uses the original footswitch to calibrate the pedal a new microswitch is mounted underneath the treadle for easy adjustments in the future. Read more about the calibration process from the Digitech website.
