Detail 01
Adjustable pedal torsion
Rocker-pedal resistance can be set to suit the player’s preferred feel.

Independent shopping perspective
Xotic’s XW-2 is a compact wah pedal built around a custom-wound inductor and tuned EQ, with controls that let the player tailor the rocker resistance. Its relay-based true bypass keeps the pedal out of the signal path when disengaged. An LED reports operating status and warns when battery power drops below half, which is useful when the pedal is running on a 9V battery. The metal chassis and nylon bushings support smooth operation in a pedalboard-ready format.
