I got this pedal for Christmas. Usually they cost around $110-130.

Features |

|

The PW-10 is a multi-effect wah pedal. It has a gain control, a wah range control, and a selector knob for switching between wah types. The heel switch enables three other effects. You can program your own effects into the pedal, but resetting them to the factory preset is hard as hell, requiring 15 steps. |

Playability |
|
|
| |
When the battery power is up, or it's plugged in, the pedal provides everything short of a multi-effects, board-style pedal (like the Digitech RP200, for example). |

It generates some buzz noise when on, but not being actively used. Other than that, it's pretty quiet. It does kind of thin the guitar's sound out though, which I'm not a fan of. |

Durability |
|
|
| |
The item's only reliability problem is its reliance on full battery power. Less than new batteries will cause some or all of the pedal's effects to stop working. The one remedy for this is to buy a wall plug for the pedal. Other than that, this is one heavy-duty pedal made to be stomped on. |

Overall |

|

It's a heavy-duty pedal, which is good. But the playability and programmability could use some work. It's easy to accidentally set off the heel effects as well. If I had the option, I'd go for the RP200, for a bit more cash. |
