I dont know if this is a repost, but did you know that the famous Cry Baby Wah Wah guitar pedal was invented and originally built in the city of Sepulveda? I learned it watching the documentary below. Here is a link to the pedal and company wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wah-wah_pedal Founded by Canadian Edward G. Thomas as the Thomas Organ & Piano Co. in Woodstock, Ontario in 1875, the companys first instruments were pipe organs, moving later to pump organs. In the early 1950s, Thomas George invented the Thomas electronic organ with its single manual and ten stops. Thomas reorganized the company in 1956 into the Thomas Organ Company of Sepulveda, California. The first wah pedal was created by Brad Plunkett at Warwick Electronics Inc./Thomas Organ Company in November 1966.
