I can KIND OF see why Hammett uses his wah too much.

I picked one up, it sure is fun to play with.

oh yeah , new wah love !!!

Anyone who uses a wah has had it, I got it with each new wah I've had. I'm currently using the bad horsie 2. I would recommend this petal, built like a tank. It certainly fits my needs, however I really don't use it that much. The most use it does see, is during warm up free jams.

I went to the guitar shop and tried out a few pedals.

Zakk Wylde, Slash, Jimi Hendrix, 535Q, and a couple of others.

I walked out with a Vox Wah, that thing was just killer. I'm having a bunch of fun playing lead licks with it.

Never tried the bad horsies though!

I got a Cry Baby wah several years ago. It's supposed to be an 'exact' model of Hendrix's. All I know is that it's fun to play around with, especially when I want to get some funky sounds out of ye' ol' shredder.

Wah pedals are indeed fun as hell! I got a GCB-95 Crybaby years ago off ebay (a limited edition copper casing) and loved it. It sits in its box now because the copper tarnishes real easy. I also had a Crybaby 95-Q switchless wah, and now I use a Morley Tremonti switchless, as well as a modified GCB-95, modified by our own board member John (jgcable)... it's got a vocal mod to give it more of warmer, throaty Vox/Hendrix type of sound. I had another one modded by John that also had a switch put in on the side to turn it into a volume pedal when you kicked it.

Stock Crybaby GCB-95 (35 dollars, couldn't pass it up).
I played it constantly for a couple of weeks, and now rarely use it.

It is a fun toy though!

Using the wah wah makes you sound like a better player than you really are. That's probably why Kirk uses it.

I can play a solo and sound shit, but the same solo through a wah wah sounds totally professional and fluid. They rock!

Green Snarling Dog... Cheapo...but it sounds pretty good to me..
i realise a Clyde or others are way better, but i think i only paid $59 for it.

yep.

I use a stock GCB-95 currently but it is about to be modded. I also like the wah on my Boss GT-8. My favorite is the Bad Horsie II. The Bad Horsie is another great wah. Budda makes a wah that is incredible.

In the old days I thought the wah was a crutch for a player who wanted to sound better then they actually were. I was 100% wrong. Using a wah pedal correctly is an art and takes much skill, practice and a really good ear. Just listen to Schenker, Roth, Satriani and Vai.

[Ben...]

Crap, now I have to go find my wah. I've only used it twice and now I want to again.

[Cleveland Metal]

I used to use a wah (crybaby Q95?) live for a few tunes... Iron maiden Number of the beast solos... Some Metallica and the lead for a tune by a popular dysfunct local metal band called Purgatory, and other than that, I'd never touch it. Hasn't been plugged in for quite a while.

Never had the urge for it...

[RacerX]

I'm getting wah envy here, heh heh.
