1 pedal on Tonebox

Nile Rodgers is a guitarist on the JAM Pedals artist roster, listed among the maker's guitar players1. He uses the Wahcko, JAM Pedals' wah pedal, and he has put his endorsement of it in his own words1.

"The Wahcko is the dopest, coolest and most amazing wah pedal I've ever worked!"
Nile Rodgers1

The Wahcko on stage

Rodgers has used the Wahcko in a live setting. During Eric Clapton's tribute to Ginger Baker in London in February 2020, he stepped on his Wahcko while taking a solo during the performance2. That same London tribute show is where the story of another player's interest in the pedal begins: Richie Sambora heard Rodgers using the Wahcko there and told JAM Pedals' Jannis he wanted that wah2.
