*Wacka Wacka* I'm curious, what's your favorite Wah-Moment?
Looked like a silicone-based lubricant in a tube, then he used WD-40.
Paul Davids dazed and confused's harmonic wah intro.
Hendrix and Metallica i cant decide
The final solo at "All Along the Watchtower". Hendrix might use it for only a small part of the solo but it gives it so much mojo... My personal favourite wah-wah moment, still to this day
Boom Pow, same here
Does anyone else just smile ear to ear when a wah pedal is played well? It's just a great sound. Not liking a wah pedal would be like frowning at a banjo.
Every time I hear a wah pedal being played I physically cannot stop myself from mouthing "wah" on every note
@@didds8869 same dude, holy fuck, I literally have no control over this, it's a serious problem lol
Dude I have heard more than enough banjo in my life it sucks
I find the wah wah to be gimmicky. Btw, I hate banjos.
@@chipgaasche4933 That'a due to your limited thinking.

I don't get it boss
Wkwkwkwkwkk... 😂😂
Best and most simple explanation I have ever seen of how a wah pedal works!
TY for starting the video vv/the solution to fixing the vvah-squeek that all nevv vvah pedals have. The 2nd day I ovvn my crybaby vvah I vvas sooo sick of the squeek I opened it & fixed it ( I'd normally NEVER do it myself & take it to a shop but this experience made me vvilling to fix my ovvn stuff aftervvards ) & vvas happy vv/it aftervvard. Also TY for pointing out that D. Gilmour uses a vvah on the solo in comfortaly numb, even though I've heard it thousands of times I never picked up on it being there. TY again & keep up the great vvork .
What happened to your w?
At 3:50 I started remembering Hollywood Hogan's entrance from his WCW wresting days lol 😂💪🏻🏋🏼♂️
Excellent video - short and sweet.
Even the pedal was impressed when you played the solo, it went like "WOW WOW WOWWOWWOW WOOOW"
thanks PAUL
You did a good job
Thank u 😁 GOD wills planning to add a wah pedal for my board
3:14 your speech made a perfect bubble popping sound hahaha
was so pumped to be hearing you shred of enter sandman but i was soon to be dissapointed :D
Nice opening
No! Do not lube the rod in you Wah pedal! If you do that it will always fall down to front position when you take your foot off and you can not adjust it to desired position/sound and then just leave it there. The solution is very simple and Jimi perfected this skill. You turn the knob that say volume on your big marshal amp all the way up, and then some. You will not hear it sqeaking any more.
I just love how the sounds the wah pedal makes can't be described with normal words so we have to resort to various onomatopoeia such as "waka waka" or "bow chicka bowow"
Porn sounds
When first time I try wah pedal, my brain isn't synchronized
All hail Jimi, the voodoo king of the wah
I have the same toolbox blue toolbox
I need a wah pedal.
I was literally just waiting for Voodoo Child

The wah and squeak sounded familiar....
Old porn....
......or 70s Cop Show
I was thinking the same thing. Lol
Hmmm (っ˘з(˘⌣˘ )
@@rebelguy9487 why not both at the same time
@@birdsaresinners3373 70s police porn?
Dude, one thing that made Hendrix's wah playing awesome is that he had that perfect timing of when to open and close the pedal... It's harder than people think. It's not just tapping the beat. He made the notes "talk".
Yes. Exactly this.
And he used it as a tone control often.
@@cacornett58 Also, This as well ^
its also a reflection of your regular guitar tone.. better regular tone=better wah tone
JH pedals can only work in the JH SET of pedals.
They don't give you a choice.
That sound was NO 1960's sound.
The custom signal from the JH wah requires the JH fuzz pedal to convert.
No amp can accept the custom signal from the JH wah pedal.
The fact that Hendrix was using all this technology that no one had ever heard of before and people still use today is crazy. So ahead of his time
wah?
Clapton playing Cream's "White Room" was pretty good back then, too! That lengthy hold to feedback suspension in the studio version remains a wonderful moment..!
Now there is NO scene.
Hendrix wasn't the first. Way overrated anyway. 🙄
I think other used wah pedal too at that time..only Hendrix use it more skillfully at his time..saying it if people never heard it at that time was an understatement
WD-40 Fixed my relationship.
Niand Molar Mine too. Until it rains and all the WD-40 washes off and all I’m left with is my salty, salty tears.
WD-40 is my relationship
She dont squeak no more?
I guess you can say, it runs a lot smooter

Okay, Ghady Mrad
Just to get this out of the way: I'm not playing a Gilmour solo, it's just a backing track I had lying around from when I did the "Gilmour bend" video!
We know, we know.
you know, it sounds like a solo from Mad Season song Slip Away
We can never have enough Gilmour.
can you put a link to the bend video?
Don’t apologise - it sounded marvellous!
6:10 if Hammett played for PINK FLOYD
Giovanni Delmedico comfortably numb
@@JeremiahDaniel1995 Comfortable Wah
@@JeremiahDaniel1995 yes, you are indeed correct. Congratulations.
imo the solo is better in that way with wah than the original
enter numb or comfortably sandman ?
Hi Paul, the frequency analysis you made is fascinating, could you make such analysis on guitar pickups: single/humbucker, bridge/neck position, expensive/cheap pickups ... What are the differences on the frequency spectrum ?Thanks!
That's honestly a great idea
did he?
There's NO 1960's sound from this video.
Something's wrong.
That wah pedal hasn't made its TRUE sound yet.
None of those sounds were the same as the original Thomas wah sound.
YOU must be deaf cause you can't tell your head from your arse.
I second this
Honestly, that squeaking at the beginning was actually pretty hype.
Gunned Down that’s what i was thinking😂
I imagine ride a lowrider with that squeak and wow
Lol I thought the same! 😂 we’re so weird 💀
@@smlyblkct I imagined born
It moved so well with the filter, thought it was actually a part of it.
Now that's a dirty, dirty wah.
he velcro'd it to carpet so that's expected lmao
I like dirty wah's.
Just like your name jk
Jim Cole *insert Lenny face here*
Was that nasty cat hair on the bottom? Yuck. Now every time I watch his videos I'll think his place smells like cat pee.
The problem is - I can't find a Kirk Hammett joke so far.
yeah. maybe hes like overrated in terms of people claiming hes just wah wah guitar.. a lot others extensively use the effect but none were called for..
@3:01 great, now my whole family thinks I'm watching porn. Thanks a lot, Paul.....
Honestly tho, great video. Did I miss it or did you not mention 'parking' the wah halfway, as exemplified by Mark Knopfler/Dire Straits in the famous 'Money For Nothing' riff??
Peanut Turner his squeaky wah sound didn’t help either 😵😵😅😅
Well, we don't want them to be wrong -opens incognito tab-.
No doubt starring Fluffy Muff?
So good sounding though. Totally the only reason I watch them. For the music. Yeah
lol
Paul: *talks about using wah specifically on guitars*
Cliff Burton: am I a joke to you?
@@oyc7946 *triggered*
Paul, thank you for showing what the wah does within the frequency spectrum. As a mechanical engineer the chart told more to me than a 1000 Words can explain! 👍
Paul was wrong.
For 3 years we've let you gossip.
Now we know YOU can't tell the difference between a 1960's sound and a box of loose nuts and bolts.
JH is a SET of pedals.
If they were individual pedals, VOX would take them to court and dunlop would loose to VOX.
@@dreyn7780 😂 what are you talking about? I am talking about what the Wah does with the signal… that’s a completely different thing to what you talking about…
@@dreyn7780for a full year and a half I’ve let you sit here and say nonsense
he was talking about what the general “wah” effect does to the sound of a guitar, and how it would look on a visual eq (I think).

Sounds more like porn soundtrack :)

Seizure Millan I have, i know all of their albums and it just doesn’t sound like them lol. it just sounds like some generic funk riff
Love the grease followed immediately by degreaser
How 90% of handy work really goes
@RDE Lutherie Silicone grease will do more damage than the lithium grease will, and the WD-40 probably mostly evaporated before he even put the pedal back together. Just chill.
@RDE Lutherie My technical/scientific explanation is that I've seen lithium grease used on reinforced nylon parts without a problem, and I can't say the same for silicone. Yeah, anecdotes aren't science; whatever.
I said to chill because your original comment just wasn't necessary. It's nitpicky.
@RDE Lutherie You're just further demonstrating your lack of chill.
Kirk Hammett: wow, a video about my wah
2:49: the notes in between
(Kirk left the chat)
That’s gold😂😂😂
FANTASTIC explanation of the Wah pedal’s function and how to use it! I’m a fan of 5:27
Me too. It’s brilliant
Wrong.
You still haven't realized You're wrong.JH signature equipment is a set of electricly exclusive pedals.
They don't work on their own as we can all hear from this video.
They don't work mixed with other brands.
Same
@@dreyn7780 no this is wrong. Delete this.
3:50 is what we were all waiting for...didn't disappoint.
Excuse me, are you playing a guitar? I own a guitar DEMONITIZED
For real! RUclips r some nazis now
Bob Ross of the Guitar.
Woow
he's nothing like bob ross.
John Frusciante has the best wah sound IMO, especially the way he uses it during improvised solos live (also there is a really cool guitar lesson session with him, where he showcases it in an epic solo). Actually I think less is often more with the wah. For example I really like Jimi turning it on for a solo and then leave it, just to kick the sound. Electric funeral is a great example for a dark sound. Voodoo childe is the climax of wah history.
This is one of the only channels that makes me want to pick up the guitar and play (albeit badly) when I wasn't in the mood at all. Never stop. :)
Cream - White Room :D
I felt happiness when he started playing Portishead. Great work as always Paul!
WD-40 is not a lubricant, well not a very good one anyway. It'll do in a pinch but as it evaporates the squeak will likely come back. Better off to use a dedicated spray lubricant, my preference being a dry teflon spray like used on bicycle chains.
I was looking for my white grease spray... WD-40 does it all, but is never the best. That's why it was still unused ;)
Batch # WD-40 was a gum removal cleaning agent. Till they figured it’s also a decent lube. But not lithium.
Here ya go! www.wd40.com/cool-stuff/myths-legends-fun-facts
WD 40 best use- cologne
I'm not even joking.
If you want to smell like a man...... WD 40
I find my mouth is somehow connected between my guitar and Wah. I think the jaw muscles add to the overall tone. 🙂
kirk liked this one
Such a great video. Please do all effects Paul! Thumbs up if you agree guys so Paul can see this!
0:00 is it just me who thought the squeak sounded awesome?
Sounds groovy
Sounds like a bed rocking 😜
*hears Glorybox *
*IMMEDIATELY RUNS TO PATREON *
Was very happy to hear someone knows about Portis head.
....Portishead aired on MTV and wasnt a secret if you was in middle / high school in the 90s. They wasnt nirvana level, but I would say as many (or more) kids at school knew of them as much as Primus or Crash Test Dummies
The thing that I enjoy the most on the Wah Pedal it is it's name.
"what that stuff does?"
"Its adds a Wah sound"
Everyone gets it
I guess you can think of this as a manually controlled modulation type pedal like a flanger or phaser. It does the same thing to the frequency spectrum, except now the sweep is controlled by your foot instead of an LFO.
Not a modulation but a filter. It is a manual filter and works different from a phaser
My fave technique is to solo with a half-cocked wah in a fixed position. Funky frequency sweeps freak too many people out at my church. Lol. Another great vid. Thanks Paul!
I love that sick tone
Jimi Hendrix so I stayed and watched the whole damn great video!
I remember 40 years ago when my Brother had His Stratocaster and an Orange Amp and a Fuzz-Wah-Diddy Pedal, Thanks for reminding me, now I will have to by one, I forgot how fun it is!!
this video made me want to buy a wah pedal :) thanks man
Kirk Hammett approves
Holy shit! Voodoo child was spot on man!!
Josh R doesn’t mean it didn’t sound good though ;)
@Josh R Jimi never played it the same way twice.
Tbh I liked it better the way Paul did it
Man you matched that sweet tone to Portishead - Glory box. Rad video man!
Please do more Hendrix related lessons like technical stuff or songs, love how you played Voodoo Child here!
He hasn't activated the JH original Thomas wah sound yet and we've been waiting for 3 years already.
None of those sounds were remotely related to a 1960's wah sound.
I can make all of JH's original sounds exactly.
I own all of the JH equipment.
There was NO voodoo sounds throughout this entire video.
Stop being disrespectful to JH.
Jimi PAID a lot of money to make his Wah sounds.
You don't get that sound from 1 pedal.
I was about to say, “ No Voodoo Chile?”
Portishead's Glorybox solo lesson please!!! That big fuzz with wah is just eargasmic. great video Paul
Your teaching method is really quite good & pleasing to watch. Your short, concise & entertaining shots within the video are really educational along with all the hands on guitar examples you use are very effective! Thanx man! I'm hooked.
Very true. All of his videos are interesting because he makes them interesting. Even topics or songs I wasn’t particularly interested in before clicking the video
Terrific demonstration video. Glad I found your channel.
Pet hair lol 😂
ALSO: Spectacular playing
Best guitar channel on YT. Seriously. It's such a pure pleasure to watch.
As for Hendrix WahWah... I think it's going to sounds insane with Cub12r, my latest discovery - you could not believe how much great sound is hidden in this small 5 lamp combo. Regards, keep up a good work!
Excellent demonstration. The only thing missing was the 'cocked wah' or 'parked wah' technique characteristic of players like Mick Ronson, who used the wah set to a particular position purely as a filter, to emphasise a particular section of the mids. There are now pedals dedicated to reproducing these static sounds, but at the time 'parking' a wah was the only way to do it.
It was a terrible sound video.
JH signature equipment doesn't work outside of the set of JH pedals.
Clearly YOU can hear there was NO 1960's Thomas wah sound at all.
If YOU were right VOX would take dunlop to court and beat them with a big stick.
Recently learned about the "cocked wah" technique, basically staying in a static position on the wah to hone in on a certain tone, as used by Mark Knopfler a la Dire Straits in Money for Nothing, STP on Vasoline, and many more. I always wanted to know how they obtained that tone, now I know! B.t.w Paul you look absolutely thrilled to be doing a video on wah ;)
I’ve always wondered where Jimi Hendrix gets that sound from
You didn't know?!
5:35 Suzanne, ik ben stapelgek op jou!
Hahaha precies!
I am a total metal head, nonetheless I really like how you make your riff and playing sound like. I also really appreciate how thoroughly you explain certain concepts and subjects.
I feel like the Hendrix wah would work good for metal
Not sure tho
I don’t have one
WD 40 isn't a a good lubricant - it's a solvent, and so it quickly evaporates. Try "Corrosion X" when it starts squeaking again. It's a high-pressure rated lubricant that is designed for use on electrical equipment. It's also has excellent ant-corrosive properties:
www.westmarine.com/buy/corrosionx--corrosionx-corrosion-and-rust-inhibitor-6-oz--601406
I don't work for them or anything - I'm just a sailor who has to keep things lubricated and corrosion free in a salt water environment.
i have 2 optic wahs, theyre the best. no need to push a button... touch and its on, you can make dry and wah sounds on and off while soloing fastly...
Atalay Ant Finally someone who realise that optical wahs are great,beautiful,usefull invention and super user friendly in a live situation
Duct tape a quarter or nickel under the heel bumper....it keeps the pedal in the "working range" and keeps the sound from dropping out at heel down. Try it....don't like it....take it off.......(you'll like it).
Respect WAHmen
I know this has nothing to do with the video but..............
YOU HAVE THE SAME CARPET AS ME!!!!!!!!
I know nothing about guitars, and I keep hearing people talking about Kirk Hammett's use of the Wah Pedal.
So I came here to learn what on earth it was. And I found a hidden gem of a youtube channel!
Metronome: I can help with that rhythm
Delay: me 2!
Wah pedal: hold my spring
Get a Morley! They’re the best!
Idk why but I absolutely loved the squeaking at the beginning
What’s the sing
Song
I just got a Paul David’s ad on a Paul David’s video. Who’s paying who here
that passage from Portishead song tho....
Just bought a crybaby pedal on a thirft store for 12 cad!
Not sure on what state it is and if it works but it looks almost like new
Just awaiting for some pizza guy to arrive now with a film crew
@benicecunt o.k. good lord...
I actually didn't mind that squeaky wah pedal in the beginning. I'm no expert on pedals or guitar but it was pretty ok. But if the style of music changes of course that squeaky pedal would need to be fixed
I'm drowning in your beautiful eyes
I like to play a cool ascending power chord riff while slowly pressing down the do it descending while pulling the pedal back up
The squeaking actually kinda added a bit of a groove to your planning hehe
When it went: *wAH WaH WAHHhhHHHh ahHHH* I felt that.
Great content...it's impressive how your channel has improved my music knowledge and kept me working... keep on posting...by far, this is the best music channel on RUclips. Thanks
Up from the skies by hendrix, also michael landaus live version
