Members Faber Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 I seem wholly unable to work the wah without mouthing the sounds along with it - I look absolutely ridiculous I'm sure, but unless I consciously think to stop it, there it is. And focussing on it distracts from the music. The stage is not an appropriate place to display my O face Am I alone in this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doctor Morbius Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Boom - Chicka - Wah - Wah! Just mash your teeth when working the pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members honeyiscool Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Can you make a vibrato without making that {censored} eating face? Is there a slapper who doesn't jut their face forward to the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mnhhngbfs Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 i don't make wah faces most of the time. when i do, it's intentional and i do it to add a bit of cheese to the performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faber Posted January 23, 2012 Author Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 To the best of my knowledge the wah is the only effect that make me make faces. But yeah, I do bop my head to the beat as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members noisebloom Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Great question. It's like trying to sneeze with your eyes open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jonny guitar Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Wah sing along was the driving force behind my getting TMJ surgery because I would frequently lock my jaw up while I was using my crybaby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Valtyr Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Don't know, I have never put a wah in my rig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Philfixit Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 Been using a Cry Baby for 30+ years and I don't think I've ever cried while using it. But sometimes I scrunch up when bending and holding a note for a while - like Santana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members scolfax Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 That's the only reason I use a wah, justification for wah-face. Mine's not even plugged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jfwund Posted January 23, 2012 Members Share Posted January 23, 2012 This strikes me as a philosophical question, like "If a tree falls in the forest and nobody hears it, does it make a sound?"Clearly this is beyond the ken of mere mortals(When I play my wah pedal I look like a fish chewing a cud) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
