My other wah pedal is the no-nonsense VOX V847. I bought it because it runs on a pot & offers an alternative, in terms of tone, to my Artec wah. Yes, there are other immaculate sounding wah units out there but the V847 offers a fundamental tone which isn't inclined to an artist's specification; it does not contain any enhancements to appease a certain liking- it's something neutral to work with.
The V847 does better with cleans but it's not a dud with overdrive/ distortion; one needs to set the latter at the lower reaches to hear what this pedal is all about. As you can see from the pic above, the bag is supplementary to purchase so if you bought one without it, do ask the seller to account for its absence.
PS: The folks at City Music were very patient with me when I tried this pedal- from one guitar to another, from one amp to another- to brother Dhalif & co.- thanks for the great customer service!!

Thanks, Sub.
Was considering either this or spending a little bit more on a Weeping Demon.
IMO Weeping Demon is for those who want options. if you are set on a fixed tone type, the V847 will give you a good foundation.

Thanks!
it's just a colour diff. more importantly, the manufacturer included the 'A' there as an indicator of its latest revision- the inclusion of an adaptor outlet. the oroginal V847 looks like thishttp://www.chrisguitars.com/vox-v847-070215.jpg:
