Found a EB Wah for a good price and went for it.
It's pretty sweet. Don't use it much in the band tho.
More of a subtle wah.........kind of classic sounding but not as extreme in either toe up or down.
It's super easy to engage/disengage, which is why I was interested in it. Crybabys have been hit and miss for me in the past, and sort of unreliable.
I did read about the EB string method and that it's the weak link. I'm okay with a string breaking, rather than it breaking down for good.
Periodic checks should eliminate it being a problem.
