Mark Hammer	Re: Wah inductor source No reason whatsoever. If anything, I would override Mr. Keen's recommendation to use a broken wha, and recommend keeping your eyes open for exactly the kind of volume pedal you describe. If anything, the hopelessly nasty loading of such a pedal (100K volume pot) coming after a guitar should make most owners of such pedals utter "This thing is crap!" and let it go for a song. Another source is swell pedals from older organs. These are also often in the right range, and have a reasonable feel to them.
