None of the above.

The PV-10 is a heap of junk really. Good for practice, but really not a great tone for recording or anything like that.

Dunlop Cry Baby 535Q, sounds amazing and very versatile.
Any Morley pedal is amazing. The Bad Horsie 2 Contour wah, is not cheap, but sounds incredible.

Those should be easy to find and of course there is boutique options if you're willing.

The dynamic filter wah is just an auto wah, that responds to your picking dynamics (i.e pick harder, more wah effect).

The Ibanez Weeping Demon is an under appreciated wah pedal in my opinion but from an operational point of view it's easily the best available, since you can adjust how the wah sounds and can set it up so it's only on when you move the pedal. The only downside is that even by wah standards it's huge.

Another vote for Dunlops;
 
I've got an early 1970s Dunlop that I got given when I bought a cab from a mate at work in the 1980s - and, while I can't remember the model, I do know that I've never found a non-Dunlop Wah that sounds anything like it.

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

I've got a snarling dogs wah, it's not bad..but I think I'm going to actually get a Vai Bad Horsie pedal actually, I've tried em..I'd say if you've got the money go with that.

I'd go for the "Clyde" Vox 848. Otherwise, consider the Budda BudWah as well. It is a reasonably priced boutique wah pedal that can hold its own to most wahs except maybe Teese.

i use a Cry Baby standard. I used to use a Jimi Hendrix wah. The Cry Baby is great, but im thinking about going back to the Hendrix one.

Colorsound wah / fuzz converted to optical. Very versatile 70s pedal. Here is a comparison of a Colorsound and Cry Baby.
