The turner mod is a really simple mod and has some really cool effects. It's not to everyone's tastes but it can be made with two caps (or the original plus another), a switch and a little bit of wire. You can use the original cap in your wah on a switch to have it completely how it was by the flick of a switch. To do this mod, you need to replace the sweep cap with a high value, I mainly use 0.22uF caps (all the clips are done with 0.22uF).

To wire a switch:

• Take the old sweep cap out of the wah
• Using the cap you removed or a new cap, solder a piece of wire and one of the two ends of the capacitor to the top lug
• In the middle lug, solder two of the ends of the separate capacitors
• On the last lug, solder the remaining end of the new capacitor and some wire
• Solder the wires to where the original cap came from on the circuit
• Install the switch in the side of the wah and hey presto!

Things to try;
-Toe all the way down for lots of bite, sounnds like a cool fuzz when used with distortion
-Heel all the way down for lots of bass and a cool muted effect
-Playing a chord and sweeping up and down liike mad
-Use it for swells, play a note and go reallly gradually on the sweep, at some frets if you get the wah just right it makes a cool harmonic sound

Clips:
I have done the turner mod in both a Crybaby wah and a Morley Power Wah.
