The BOSS Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

The BOSS Power Wah has been around for a long time but they have mostly been based around digital modeling. The BOSS PW-3 instead is a completely analogue circuit with 2 modes of operations so you can get the classic wah sound found on countless records or opt for the fuller sounding ‘Rich’ mode which has much stronger low end definition.

More Space On Your Board

Wah pedals can be the biggest pain in the backside when trying to put it on your pedalboard. BOSS know this so with the PW3 they have made the pedal a lot smaller so that it will now fit on almost any board with ease. They didn’t just make it smaller however. They moved the LED’s to the side so you can easily see when the pedal is engaged as well as adjusting the motion of the pedal so it still feels natural to use.

Two Modes

We all know the classic wah sound that has been used by artists like Zakk Wylde, Kirk Hammet, Jimi Hendrix, Slash and many more. You have access to that sound in this small compact wah pedal but that is not all. BOSS have also developed what they consider to be a fuller and richer sounding wah sound that was not previously possible with a typical wah circuit. Just flip the switch on the back you go from a vintage wah to a sound that keeps a lot more of your guitars low end in the mix perfect for your next huge solo.

Specifications

  • Unique Rich mode retains low-end fullness, eliminating the thin tone of typical wah designs
  • Vintage mode for the familiar classic wah sound
  • Low-noise operation and pro playing feel with smooth pivot action and adjustable tension
  • Space-saving design fits easily on crowded pedalboards
  • Rugged, die-cast aluminum chassis provides a rock-solid feel and gig-ready durability
  • On/off LEDS on each side of the pedal make it easy to see status at a glance

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Compact. Dual — Dual describes gear designed with two of the same or complementary features working together, such as dual channels, dual pickups, or dual effects. This allows greater flexibility and tonal range, letting players switch or blend between sounds for different styles, settings, or playing dynamics without changing their setup.. Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.. Wah — Wah pedals are all about expression. By rocking the foot pedal back and forth, you sweep through frequencies to create that classic vocal-like “wah-wah” sound. From funk to rock solos, the wah adds movement, personality, and attitude to your tone. Think Hendrix, Clapton, or Slash — each used a wah to make their guitar sing. Whether you prefer a classic Cry Baby or a modern auto-wah, this effect remains one of the most recognisable sounds in guitar history..
