There are autowahs. And there are autowahs. But the Tone-Lok AW7 isn't just any autowah. It's got standard wah where both the highs and lows are cut and it's got a wah setting where only the highs are cut. And it's got distortion. Band Pass Filter provides the sound of a standard wah pedal left at one setting (a favorite wah pedal technique of Joe Satriani). You can even change the chain order of the effects to get different tones: either distortion to wah or wah to distortion.
