Wah pedal in FX loop?

[Nick Welfare]

I run Echo, EQ and delay through my FX loop. From my guitar and amp i have a tu-2 tuner. I use drive from amp, no distortion pedals. Where should I place my wah? From guitar to amp, or in the FX loop?

No wah in the loop, would sound odd at best
Before everything with the wah, guitar, wah, and the rest.

Why not just jack around and play with it to see what you like?

Everyone will tell you that it's a bad idea, but most people also hate putting their wah before distortion (I happen to love doing this). It really is a matter of taste. Just screw around untill you get some cool sounds and then go with it . . .

I wouldn't say it's a bad idea. I've put my wah into the FX Loop and, to be honest, it sounded great. The honk in the signel was more pronounced and the thing was LOUD. I loved it. The shame is that I couldn't run the OD/comp into the loop at the same time because it sounded tinny and crappy!

before the amp and not in the efx loop, makes the wah sound funny like RID said.

Only time a wah sounds good after, is with an old fuzz
