Hello guys,

I picked up a 1970's Thomas Organ Crybaby Wah (Chicago) a while ago. I cleaned it up, replaced the bad foot switch, and battery snap. Ha I'll probably never pick one up again for a whopping $25! Well it's in Greece now, anyways I drew up a schematic, wiring diagrams, and even a layout for the etching aficionados.

Here 'tis:

Cool!

The very first pedal I ever bought, got it for my 16th birthday and still have it today.

I installed a true bypass back in the early days of the web. Aside from that it's totally stock and sounds fantastic!

I got one of those at a flea market about 18 years ago for $25! Mine has the 003 stack of dimes inductor though. Awesome wah!

Thanks for posting that! It helped me reverse a true bypass mod on mine. If there tone suck, it doesn't bother me. I much prefer the heavy duty original Carling SPDT switches to the cheap blue 3PDT switches.

CHEERS!
