I got a brand new one but the tremvewrsion back inthe 70's , mine was purple ! It was heavy ! Too bad they didn't go Fuzz-Vibe-Octavia ! It would now be worth a little fortune ! hihi! Thanks for posting !
My dad told me that in the 70's he took the guts out of his WAH pedal and installed it in his Fender stratocaster. It was wired to the knob closest to the strings so he could use his pinky while playing to get that WAH sound whenever he wanted. 😂 He said it wasn't very practical because you have to change the shape of your hand to compensate, but it worked.
Great overview of this unique guitar - subbed! I just ordered one online today, can't wait to play with it. May I ask, what is that large silver button toward the edge of the pickguard adjacent to the middle pickup? Does it have a function? The one I'm getting is missing that.
This model has a hole in the pickguard in that location (I have seen that on other examples as well), the previous owner had just covered it with a metal button to look a bit nicer cosmetically

Isn't a wah pedal just a tone control?!? I think you can get the same effect just using the tone knob on your guitar that's already there, as is.....
