DIGITECH WHAMMY MOD
The JHS Pedals Digitech Whammy Mod is a pitch shift effect pedal optimized for electric bass guitar, offering both "Classic" and "Chord" (polyphonic) tracking modes. This pedal features MIDI input for control, 21 different programs, and true bypass. Users have praised its sound quality, tracking, and versatile features, including harmonies and a detune option. Compared to the Whammy version 5, it retains the lower register better when used with bass. It also works great with a Darkglass Microtubes preamp to create an extension of your bass sound, but requires careful blending to avoid it sounding 'too much'.
