It's just the WH10v2, it's no good; they break and they suck the tone out of your sound.

"Well, it was put to me by "that guy" when I was, like, four. So I went into my parents' record collection and found a rock'n'roll compilation. And when my mom asked if I wanted to move to L.A., I said, "Yeah," because I knew that was where the rock stars were. I was seven. Then when I found punk and listened to the Germs, I started seeing how I was part of this. I remember being out on the baseball field when I was 11, and I felt like such an outsider. Standing there in right field, I started making up an angry punk song in my head, and I went home and wrote, like, 20 songs in a row. I realized it didn't even matter if I knew how to play guitar yet." -John Frusciante

where do you have your wah? before or after the dist section of your pedalboard? Because i had this problem too and when i put my wah right after the dist section of my pedalboard i got my treble signal back (not all but most of it).

Have you already tried to put the wah between ds2 and the ce20?

They suck the sound out of your tone when they're not broken. If you like the WH10, get the WH10; the WH10v2, engaged or bypassed, is a black hole that sucks the beauty out of your music.

Actually it doesn't... if you want a WH10 sound with a true bypass then you'd better go for a Wilson Ten-Spot II (or version I for the black wh10 model). It's not so cheap as a WH10v2 but it's still cheaper than a "vintage" (pffff) WH10... ;)

WH10 bypass is better than v2, but that might just be part of the WH-10v2-makes-anything-sound-bad issue. I'd highly recommend the Wilson Ten-Spot I/II. It doesn't sound like a WH-10, but it does give your music the same kind of punch that the WH10 does, which is lovely.
