Congratulations on the purchase of your new Whammy™ Pedal. When DigiTech invented
the Whammy™ pedal, it was the most revolutionary and innovative pedal to hit the guitar since
the the wah wah. Nearly a decade later, in response to your demands, we have gone to
painstaking lengths to bring back the original Whammy™. Every last detail was considered as we
recreated this classic pitch bending effect. However, we strengthened the rugged steel chassis to
endure the perils of the stage better, the addition of a MIDI input provides more flexibility, pre­set LEDs provide a visual indication of your selection, and the Dive Bomb setting bends your sig­nal a full 3 octaves down. We are proud to bring back this pedal, and we’re proud that you
wanted it. Although the Whammy™ has an extremely intuitive user interface, this User’s Guide
will help you understand the Whammy™ functions and allow you to get the most out of your
purchase for years to come.
