3 March 2008 — The new Wah pedal from BBE Sound is based on a 1967 Class A circuit design featuring a ‘halo’ inductor which the company has re-engineered and tuned to recreate those sounds made famous by players such as Clapton and Hendrix. The ‘halo’ is essential to its unique vocal-like qualities – the same qualities sought after by players and collectors willing to pay a premium for vintage wah pedals. In addition, a custom designed potentiometer provides a natural sweeping response while BBE has also added a ‘harmony’ control allowing players to tailor the wah sound to their individual tastes. Apart from an on/off LED indicator, as with all BBE pedals, the Wah incorporates true hardwire bypass for a clean signal path when the effect is bypassed. With all components hand wired for the ultimate in vintage authenticity, the BBE Wah is guaranteed for 5 years.

With WeImprovise! I set out to build a different kind of promotion & discovery platform — supportive, expansive, & inclusive, for music, musicians (students, performers, educators, & researchers), and the wide-ranging industry that supports music worldwide.
The focus is jazz, blues, & roots-folk-world music — incidentally the music that feeds pop & rock creativity — along with the inclusion of cultural & sociological aspects without which the music cannot truly be engaged with.
What you see is the beginning, a proof of concept to demonstrate possibilities and inspire ideas.
