Members sfarfsky Posted March 30, 2010 Members Share Posted March 30, 2010 :cop:ME really though most of them use just the same thing. Might as well be about the octave pedals then just the whammy. u could take the whammy out and it would sound the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Josh S Posted March 30, 2010 Members Share Posted March 30, 2010 The Edge.Exactly.The Edge got on the Whammy train really early, considering he was using it on Achtung Baby which came out the same year as the Whammy pedal was invented. One could likely make a case that The Edge was the first person to use one on a major release. Frankly, it doesn't surprise me. Also, props for using it to create the riff [YOUTUBE]ciRAhqMSVvs[/YOUTUBE][YOUTUBE]WjfVqepsSwQ[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Instrospection Posted March 30, 2010 Members Share Posted March 30, 2010 There's two switches called "wham". One is for George Michael, the other is for.....that other dude that was in the band that wasn't George Michael. Be careful when you step on it though, it might wake you up before you go go.

Members frenchji Posted March 30, 2010 Members Share Posted March 30, 2010 The guitarist for Thrice uses a whammy on the the song Image of the Invisible. I thought it blended in very well... very nice textural sort of thing.. check it out.. its during the chorus. The only part of the song I really like to be honest.

I believe those two switches you are referring to on Pages board are actually pots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GuitarSlim101 Posted March 30, 2010 Members Share Posted March 30, 2010 This is my favorite Satriani Whammy moment (around 2:50) [YOUTUBE]l_Mq2X2RvBo#movie_player[/YOUTUBE] Not the most tasteful, but it works. My favorite use of the Whammy is using the harmony settings with a volume pedal for pseudo pedal steel sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
