*** Wah? ***

[acousticvoodoo]

I wah.

 

There's not much I can do to hide it.

The minute you hear me playing... you can't miss it.

I'm not sure if I could live without it.

 

I don't always mean to wah.

But I think I play better when I wah.

 

Sometimes I record things sans wah.

 

Then I listen back... nope.

Record over it with wah all over.

 

I have different wah's...

They each have their own sound and vibe.

But they all still wah.

 

Here's a take:

 

Wah Sounds

 

Yeah.

 

It's got lots o' wah.

 

Do you wah?

 

Ever worry about your wah?

Nice! Which wah is that? I'm a wah junky as well. Just got #4, a '67 Maestro Boomerang. Just lovely.

The hardest part about playing a wah is learning to not wah along with your mouth. If I haven't heard one in a while, I sometimes catch myself mouthing along to the record. For me it's like seeing someone yawn or hearing someone whistle, I get an impulse to join in.

My girlfriend had a field day with me one night cause she noticed I was moving my mouth along with the wah. I didn't even realize I was doing it! Love these new emoticons.

That particular wah is a Dunlop Crybaby 535Q.

I've also got an original Crybaby, Vox Wah, and I use the wah in my PODxt via the floorboard.

I find wah'ing to be so expressive... that I'm afraid I overdo it sometimes... well... most of the time.

Thanks for listening and commenting!

Yeah, this is a problem when you wah.

Trower, in that classic picture on the cover of Trower Live! is a great example. He always does the mouth wah thing when he wah's... it's almost his signature!
