Char "Wacatcon" Wah - Sold Exclusively in Japan

The Vox V847-C Wah-Wah Pedal was a limited edition "artist" model tailored to the tone and response prefered by Japanese guitarist and producer Char. The significant modifications to the standard Vox V847 wah pedal include: a frequency range that has been set lower than that of a standard wah. Vox is calling this effect a "reduced center of gravity." a reduction of the peak sharpness of the "wah" in the forward pedal position. boosted gain with warmer tone by means of an adjusted input impedance. true bypass switching.

A special, 500 piece limited edition of the V847-C wah pedal, the Vox "Zicca Ax Wacatcon" was offered exclusively in Japan. The only difference between the V847-C and the Wacatcon appears to be the color of the rubber pedal tread. The tread on the V847-C was white while the Wacaton tread was tan. The cast metal base of the pedal was painted an attractive copper color. The front and bottom plate of the V847-C and Wacatcon both featured traditional Japanese artwork. While the V847-C Wah had an MSRP of $319.99 in the US, it was commonly offered for a discounted price of $229.99 on the various online retail platforms.
