Boss PW-10 Wah

Bassists and Effect Maniacs,

I've been searching for effects pedals, wanting to build up a pedalboard quickly. I've got ideas on what I 'need' for my praise band (tuner, chorus, octaver, compressor) and as I'm looking around for some fun extras I came across on The Perfect Bass site the Boss PW-10 wah pedal. I haven't found a review of it in TalkBass (my searches turn up hundreds of results) and wonder what everyone thinks of it.

I've listened to the demos on the Boss website which are mostly guitar, only 2 bass. Now that I'm on TalkBass I'd rather not pick up another piece of crap like the Bootzilla.

Thanks for your help!

It sucks. Very small sweep range. Owned it, hated it. Some of the built in dist models were kinda cool tho....

Thanks for that comment on the sweep range. I'll keep looking around.

I like it actually. I used it mostly with distortion rather than as normal wah, mind, so maybe my usage pattern isn't representative.
