Ibanez WH10V3

The Ibanez WH10V3 is a classic wah pedal designed for electric guitar and bass, combining the distinctive response of the WH10 series with modern switching and construction upgrades. It uses a multiple-feedback op-amp circuit rather than a traditional inductor-based design, giving the pedal a distinctive wah character and consistent gain across its frequency sweep.

A single Depth control adjusts the intensity and gain of the wah effect, while the Guitar/Bass frequency-range switch provides two optimized operating ranges. Guitar mode covers approximately 350 Hz–2.2 kHz, while Bass mode covers approximately 175 Hz–1.1 kHz, allowing the pedal to work effectively with both instruments.

The WH10V3 also provides selectable True Bypass or Buffered Bypass operation, giving players flexibility when integrating it into different pedalboard signal chains. Its circuitry is housed in a durable die-cast aluminum alloy enclosure with a black finish, while standard 1/4-inch input and output connections provide straightforward pedalboard connectivity.
