Review: A good choice and great value. - Much better than I expected. I used to have a Boss DS1 and didn't like the sound. This however, used on a low distortion setting and after my Behringer Vintage tube overdrive (which btw is excellent) produces a thick but "pleasantly dirty" sound just right for blues rock. It's dead useful that it has EQ settings too. A good choice.
Review: Decent but heavy on batteries. - Case is plastic so may not take a battering, changing the battery is fiddly. Current drain is 160mA so a PP3 battery will only last a few hours if used continuously. Sounds decent enough and plenty of versatility so at the price still good value.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't Believe the Lack of Hype
*by J***B on 4 August 2024*

I'm updating this review to reflect how my opinion has changed over time: this is the best Wah for bass currently being sold, regardless of price. As with most Behringer products this is massively underpriced even with the budget cutting materials. It doesn't feel weak or tacky, I have a Morley too and even though it's basically two slabs of material that you can jump on if you like I don't feel anxious when I switch to the behringer, it's solid. I use many wahs in many wahs. The hellbabe goes so well after my distortion chain, I can either avoid the upper range by using the frequency control or control that fuzz and get some excellent bass stabs that cut through when I need them to. It isn't as fun on its own as my Morley or My George Dennis but as part of a chain this pedal is so versatile and truly works as a true bass wah or as a lead wah for distorted bass that sits high in the mix. As you can see from my photos I have a good frame of reference. Most of my pedals are Boss, EHX or they are amazing pedals from companies that are famous in other areas, like Fender or Marshall. Behringer pedals hold their own, this and the tube modeller are overpowered for their price, and the sansamp copy isn't awful either.
