Wah Pedal Tips & Tricks!

[@FabianSalomonsson]

What I like about your videos is that it contains no BS, it's awesome and refreshing to see a leader in a company talk about and recommend a different companys product. By recommending another companys pedal shows us that you really love music and pedals and that you don't just want to sell stuff. Big props to you Josh, one day when I get the money for it, I will definitely check out JHS pedals. Sorry for any typo etc, English is my foreign language.

I have to say, I love the comaraderie with other pedal makers. JHS is a quality brand name, you could easily only show and discuss JHS pedals, but no brand is off limits for you, and THAT is respect and class. We can tell you are in it because you love it, and know if you find a cool pedal or company, you’ll share your joy instead of sneaking off to make a competing product while pretending the original doesn’t exist. You’re a good dude, and it’s great to see you succeed doing something you have such passion about. Big fat 👍 to you!

A friend in the early 80s (DK Brown) built an ETI (Electronics Today International) magazine kit for me with a custom switchable distortion at the front end, into which I ran a AU $65 Sakai with an Ibanez Super 80 bridge pickup into an old (even then) foot switchable Ibanez fuzz wah. I loved the effects combo sounds and wish I still had that setup. Thanks DK! And thanks JHS for an entertaining channel!

[@umbertoyltp]

Now this is one of my favorite subjects! My first wah (early 70s) was a 2 transistor DIY circuit from an electronics magazine. I took a sewing machine pedal which had no gear for a potmeter, so I used an LDR and a panel on the hinged footrest to regulate incoming daylight for control. It had a very poor effect (2 transistors, no coil), but you could hear something was happening to the sound. I took my first home built pedal to school and asked my electronics teacher if he could help figure out how it worked. We started off with a sine tone generator into the pedal and output to an oscilloscope and it seemed like nothing happened to the tone. From the circuit diagram my teacher figured this could be a low pass filter with a feedback loop, so we needed harmonics to make the filter do its work. We ended up with three sine generators to a create a 2nd and 3rd harmonic waveform, and now the effect was visible on the oscilloscope. A truly magical moment, mystery unveiled! This was my first step in discovering sound technology, progressing towards analog synthesizers. My second Wah was a Colorsound, which is now a collector's item. Back then it was cheaper than a Cry Baby, when money was tight. The Colorsound has a lot of hiss noise, and has emphasis on high tones, which means most low frequencies are lost. But it definitely has its own character. A few years ago I could actually afford a Cry Baby, and I compared it side by side with a Ibanez Weeping Demon. Although the Cry Baby has more Oompf and Aargh, I fell for the tweaking options on the WD7: a spring release, auto-off, tweakable Q and range, bass guitar switch, optical control, sturdy housing. Tough choice, I got tempted by the knobs of the WD7. Today I would probably buy the JHS Super Wah Cry Baby. My favourite early wah music track is Cream - Tales Of Brave Ulysses But a close 2nd is Johnny Winter - The Good Love (from the vinyl double album Second Winter, which had side 4 intentionally left blank!)

[@Andrey.Balandin]

If you have Ibanez WD7 wah, you have all wahs. What I love about it is that not only can you control the Q and the sweep range, it is the bass fill control which actually let's you take it out of the wah territory (which can sound thin at the top of the sweep with all the bass scooped) and puts it into sweep filter territory, nice and full at the top of the sweep range - and everything in between. You can also with the flick of a switch go from a spring-loaded wah to a wah you can park - it's crazy versatile. And it's not gimmicky, I pretty much use all the versatility. Come on, let's give wd7 some love! ))

Jerry Garcia was a master of the wah. I recommend "Run for the Roses" and "Catfish John." Both have a some very elegant use of the wah, particularly at the end of the song where he goes instrumental.

15 or so years ago - while taking out the over proofed dough at the back of the pizza shop I worked at, I happened to notice something odd laying in the dumpster - on top of heaps of trash bags. I pulled it out to inspect - it was a Crybaby wah pedal. How odd. Why was it there? Who put it there? What a strange life it must have had to wind up at the back of a pizza shop - in the dumpster. A few years later it wound up on my board - and about six months after that - in my bedroom closet where it sat in waiting for this day when I would pull it back out and run it through the effects loop of my Spring Tank reverb - it's destiny now fulfilled.

[@darrelldourte9455]

Best pizza story ever.

[@MrLeadbelly1966]

I think you missed one. Back in the 1980's, I remember hearing Carlos Santana mixing his Wah Wah (Morley?) with a Chorus pedal. If you listen closely to his solos during that era, you can hear the faint chorus effect along with the more "up-front" wah sound. I love that sound & I think it's such a cool mix of tones. Also, your "parked wah" is also referred to as "always on", made famous by the one & only Michael Schenker (early 1970's UFO albums). Mr. Schenker is the Supreme Master of the "always on" wah sound!!!

[@JeighNeither]

Never heard of "always on" & tbh, it sounds kinda lame, but Morley on the other hand; why weren't optical Wah's like Morleys mentioned?

[@grimora-dg3vq]

@@JeighNeither Explain that to Mark Knopfler.

[@OneTinSloth1]

I have an old Morley Wah that has the separate switch and a "wah" knob on it so you could park it and switch it on mid-sweep without having to search for the tone. I haven't used it in a while, but this episode has inspired me to mess around with it some more. I really dig the loafers.

[@michaelpiercey7316]

One of the first tunes I thought of with a more "non-traditional" way sound is the solo on She's a Jar by Wilco. Definitely one of my favorite applications. Really informative and interesting stuff here. Thanks!

[@petenorman7687]

My favourite wah is the George Dennis Wah/Volume Switch. The only wah/volume that actually sweeps well for both wah and volume. As for the best footwear; the harlequin socks. Love the vlogs by the way! Keep em coming!

[@dawidchojak_dcsolo]

The weirdest usage of a wah is in my opinion the "seagull sound" in Echoes by Pink Floyd. As I remember gilmourish made a tutorial video on this. That just blew my mind.

[@fsolisiii]

I will never buy a Wah Pedal that doesnt do this

[@mynmyself]

Ive been using a crybaby 105q bass wah for many years now. I love how it actually works as a lowpassfilter, instead of a bandpass (or notch?). Ive been using it at the very end of my pedalboard (even after my delays and reverbs) to get very nice filter sweeping effects, I really enjoy it with very long reverbs and delays

[@no_torrs]

Had no idea about the effects loop thing. Really cool.

[@jspanos500]

I need to say, if you're talking about cocked wahs the master was Mick Ronson. The live version of Suffragette City from Bowie at the 'Beeb will melt your face with sweet wah-ness.

[@davids9192]

[@frankscassi4960]

I use an Ernie Ball 6185 Wah. It's quite mellow in that it does'nt get choked and muddy or overly shrill when floored. It's made to sound good in any position it's parked in. I really like it and it has the same type of aluminium chassis as their volume pedals. Very sturdy. When it comes to footwear, I really appreciated the little beige, argyle number. They hit the spot! :) Great video, thanks.

[@eviljames]

loved the socks at 9:10. also love how even though you are a company who make your own pedals to sell, you'll always recommend other brands for different players. It shows you care about people more than money which is a good way to be :)

[@markhammer643]

I was reminded the other day that one of the nicest "benchmark" one-note solos, using a wah in a creative way, is the guitar solo at the end of the Supertramp tune "Goodbye Stranger". The wah is used almost like a slow synth filter sweep, making what is really a simple pulsing guitar sound seem more dramatic.

I have a old Carlsbro Wahwah from the 70s. I been through some other makes, but nothing ever came close to this one. I really love it.

[@JeffStarr]

I love my Signature Buddy Guy Wah by Dunlop. The on/off led is a huge help when playing live. It has a simple "kick" switch on the side to adjust the sweep and I've used that live when my tone needed a quick adjustment, especially if I was using a venue supplied amp or cab. I own 5 wahs and I keep coming back to the Buddy Guy. It sounds so good! I run it after overdrive as I prefer the vocal sculpting. My second choice would be a late 70's era Morley Power Wah. It's HUGE and clunky and it has a lot of volume cut when going heel down but it's really unique sounding and a lot of fun to play. It's more of a studio tool though. I can't imagine anyone trying to gig with it. I have videos of both wah's on my channel if anyone is curious to hear them.

The Argyle socks looked cool,as did the house loafers(cause I have the same in brown).The tennis shoes go to footwear,forget the haters when you get old it's what's comfortable that matters.First two pedals were a Vox wah,Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face in 1967,I was in heaven.Keep up with the great pedals and videos, what a great line up.🎸😎✌👍

[@SeattleScotty]

I play rhythm in a cover band, so I use my wah in a number of the 'classic' ways - funk especially! I also use it as a high-pass filter for songs like 'Money For Nothing' like Mark did on the record!

[@frankscassi4960]

The sound on Money for nothing was actually due to out of phase mic placement, but cocked wah is the best way to replicate it live

[@travisstaggs8550]

I just picked up the Dunlop Jerry Cantrell wah .and it has changed my way of playing.some riffs that I write feel that they aremissing something and adding wah really helps define the notes.its a great sounding wah.

[@RealGingerTea]

Morley Power wah, the glow in the dark limited edition version (just looks so cool). It's honestly, the best sounding wah I've ever heard. Very vocal, no moving parts, and if you're careful, you can bend the light inside to control the sweep. And the best part, you can leave it parked whilst you switch it on and off.

[@ianzickler2121]

I just got my first wah in quite a while. I was underwhelmed with my Dunlop 535Q way back around 2000 and also my Morley Wah/Vol/Dist. I got rid of the 535 and the Morley and have been without a wah for at least 15 years. But I really needed one for a song I'm working on and didn't want to rely on my computer/virtual effects. So I bought a Kirk Hammett Dunlop wah and it just came today! My first response: It's...fine. I want a wider sweep. Same as my other wahs. So right now I'm a little sad. Wider frequency sweep range would be awesome. Back on ebay and youtube to find what I need for this recording. I appreciate this channel and will check out the wahs mentioned at the end of the video--

[@michaelpiercey7316]

[@blues61]

Favorite footwear? Definitely the sock-gaze look on the parked Wah sound. Argyle is absolutely the wah-to-go. 😏 I’m just a home player, but my wah is a basic Vox V845 that I modded to add an LED on-indicator. I put whatever fuzz I’m using in front of it. Thanks for another great video Josh!

[@loulasher]

I love the Voodoo Labs Wahzoo wah. I love it as a wah and as a step wah and an auto wah. I don't think it is a jack of all but master of none, I think it's mastered them pretty well. It's let me fall in love with the way all over. I also love the Moogerfooger Low Pass filter which isn't a wah but when you plug in an expression pedal to the control the cut-off you're wahing just with a low pass instead of a band bass filter. I used the low pass for many years on guitar and bass, but the Voodoo Labs wah which is never too far from my guitar amp.

[@JonnyFG]

[@BrickwallStudios0]

I use Crybaby bass wah on a guitar, it gives wild and extreme sounds with a lot of gain. But i also discovered how easy it is to create some weird and hypnotic sounds on clean with a delay. It's super versatile, when used with reverb and on like 10% wah it creates that keyboard long warm pad, that is really useful when i'm playing with a band. There's so much you can do and combine with a wah pedal that it's a must have for all genres, yet it's labeled as a funk pedal or for a "hendrix style" playing... You can do whatever with it.

[@noahmcgaffey797]

My favorite pedal setup right now is Chorus to fuzz to wah to compressor. My fuzz screams a bit when something is behind it, the chorus does the most screaming on it's own (change depth for harder scream change frequency for a more "frantic" sound) and then the wah accentuates the scream sound and the compressor keeps everything at a more consistent volumes and can make more feedback for weird sounds, it's wonderful for making really aggresive robot voice sounds or screams of guitar pain by playong any more than two notes Wah makes so many things possible

They're made in Vermont and I can't say enough about them. Once upon a time I too was having my teenage mind blown by Evil Empire, and now I get excited about good socks.

I would pay like 200 bucks for a JHS Ibanez WH10 wah clone. Will pay extra if it's called the Crack Wah, since the plastic originals always cracked. #unsolicitedmarketresearch

[@TenThumbsProductions]

Fitz cracked wah would be a sweet band named

[@Wall-v7n]

Check out Wilson effects. They have a wh10 clone that's in a rugged case... it's the bees knees

[@thomascristo1819]

The reissue is pretty good, I got one.

Thank for Josh for all the education. It's unbiased and genuine. Informative and enjoyable. Appreciate it. I've learned a lot!

[@AmagrasMUSIC]

[@kosycat1]

Love my reverb tank btw. Works well with my Hendrix/70's type pedals My friends instantly smiled when I kick it on and heard it. Deffs gonna have to try my wah now...very cool

[@jamienardozzi9967]

Weaping demon by ibenaz is a great one it’s built very well and has some great options

[@jebusgod]

trim pot adjustments on the inside too

[@jamieosgood2455]

Standard Vox Wah, love the sweep, and Built like a tank, I've had the same one for 20 plus years

[@fishypaw]

I love my Vox v847, a bit more subtle and nicer than the Dunlops IMO. You forgot to mention that if you plug it in the wrong way round and play with the guitar tone, you can get the Floyd Echos whale sounds. :)

[@boyscoutguitarist3921]

You have inspired me. One of the song riffs that I wrote for my band has my fuzz going into my wah

[@jrodriguez8735]

Velcro sneaks. No pretention. Just business.

[@Painscale]

Great video. I’ve had wah pedals with my bass for 20 years and I just learned a couple cool things that will change my sound for the better forever! Thx bro. Keep up the info. It’s good to hear from a fellow gear head..

PS: 1000 Julys is my JAM!

[@pierre-claudemeriot6562]

I use the CAE wah, I love it. What I mostly use a wah for is kind of a Lo fi to hi fi sound where I play the riff on my heal side and then gradually press on my toes as I repeat the riff, disengaging the pedal just as the next part or the band comes in which gives a huge lift to any part of a song. Usually works best from intro to verse or pre chorus to chorus

JHS WAH WE NEED IT

[@maxein4890]

Only if it has tap tempo lol

[@guitarandrewy]

@@maxein4890 yeah an auto wah!

[@maxein4890]

r/woooosh

[@FK-ee1qm]

wah need it

[@YHRS]

Agreed! I'd love to have an adjustable range that can be locked so it doesn't move. Same deal as the arduous process of opening up the wah, lifting the toothed plastic dealiewhopper, rotating the pot, letting go of the dealiewhopper, closing up the wah, testing it out only to realize that you've turned the pot the wrong way and now it's all treble and no bass, rinse and repeat. would love to have that range adjustment on the exterior and have the knob lock so it doesn't get nudged. The Q control is cool too. And high quality hinges so the wah doesn't end up like a sock that's lost its elastic...where it just falls once you take your foot off.

[@philipbroadhurst168]

I love the fact that you're not just going "Wacka wacka wacka" I've always used my Wah like a controllable filter sweep, so I can do real slow filter sweeps through an extended passage in the music. I found that in that regard cry baby pedals had noticeable notches in the sweep, which for me was problematic. My wah of choice is therefore the ZVex Wah probe - no steps - no pedal, just intuitive wah - with a SHO for really peaking those high points.... Love Wah, love this channel.

[@mattb4rd]

Played a Morley wah years ago. I called it "the toaster" because it was built like one.

[@clydehannah1056]

Love the Shows ! Years ago got a White Clyde Deluxe as a birthday gift and never not been satisfied!
