Versatile wah - great sound
The features on this wah pedal made want to have one immediately. I used to play Morley wah pedals because of their convenient switch (i.e. step on it and go), but I wasn't quite happy with the sound. With the MXR MC-404 I can actually get the "normal" wah sound which is, at least to my ears, still the best for clean sounds AND I can also have a wah sound that works really well with hi-gain sounds. Since I am using the higain channel on my amp most of the time, I really dig the red setting of the wah. Additionally, the boost switch is another great feature on this pedal (mine is usually on to deliver some extra kick!). I have been playing 20+ gigs with this pedal now and I am very happy with the way it holds up, can't complain about the quality.
The only thing that is bothering me is that is hard to turn off/on the mini switches on the lefthand side when the pedal is on a pedal board. This takes away the versatility in live situations.

Great wah, need to spend time to get the best from it
This is my first wah pedal. It sounds brilliant but it does have one or 2 issues. The base plate is flimsy. Also the battery connector lead was severed on arrival. But the options it gives are phenomenal. That brings me to the next issue. As the trim pots are inside, it's quite fiddly to adjust to get the right sound. It's worth spending time to get it sounding right. The 2 different fasel inductors give a totally different range with the yellow being a lot more trebly and the red more midrange.
