The Build your Own Wah is a custom wah pedal from Wilson Effects, a maker with a large line of wah pedals. Instead of a fixed configuration, the buyer specifies the pedal before ordering: the product page presents dropdown selections for the enclosure type and LED color, both required, plus optional Q control, growl control, mid control and sweep range selections1. Wilson Effects lists it at $225.00 USD1.
What you choose
The page is built around the selections rather than a standard spec sheet. Two choices are required and four are optional1:
- Enclosure Type (required selection)1
- LED Color (required selection)1
- Q Control (optional)1
- Growl Control (optional)1
- Mid Control (optional)1
- Sweep Range (optional)1
The optional controls shape how the wah responds: a Q control adjusts the sharpness of the filter's peak, a mid control works on the midrange character, and a sweep range selection sets how far the pedal travels through its frequency sweep. Wilson Effects does not describe each option's effect on the product page, so the choices are presented as configurations rather than explained circuits1.
The pedal was shown as Out of Stock on the Wilson Effects product page as of 2026-10-261.
Where it sits in the Wilson Effects range
Wilson Effects sells a wide range of wah pedals, from the Freaker Wah V2 and Wilson Wah V2 to the Rippah Wah, Clyde Signature Wah and Funk Factory, along with replacement pots and modification services. The Build your Own Wah is the configuration-driven entry in that line: rather than picking a preset model, the buyer assembles the specification from the options above1.
Questions
What can you customize on the Wilson Effects Build your Own Wah?
The product page presents the pedal as a set of choices made before ordering. The buyer selects an enclosure type and an LED color, both marked as required selections, and can add optional Q control, growl control, mid control and sweep range selections. Each option is chosen from a dropdown on the Wilson Effects product page, so the pedal is built to the buyer's specification rather than sold as a fixed configuration.
How much does the Wilson Effects Build your Own Wah cost?
Wilson Effects lists the Build your Own Wah at $225.00 USD on its product page. The page also showed the pedal as out of stock, so the price reflects the listed price at the time of the listing rather than an available purchase.
