  • hey I have that shoes too!

  • @gogetafs10 got good taste Dude! :)

  • Awesome i heard hysteria but ah... what was the first song?

  • @FrankasaurousREX just noodling around... not really a song. Thks for the comments!

  • What do you set the volume and Q on the pedal at? Just curious!

  • @Twani20 different settings on this video... see at 1:27 i was at maximum, and i drop it down to 3/4.

  • If I ever make a porn, you're hired for the soundtrack.

  • @RodCornholio anytime man. seriously. ;)

  • i just got mine in the mail :D

  • WOO! i must get me one of these!

    ;43!!

  • Damn i need to get me a Wah now for my Distortion!

  • @oisinholz just noodling around... thanks for the comment!

  • just curious, how do you cut it off? nice playing btw bro.

  • @sasukeuchihalb The pedal activate itself when you press it down a tiny bit... so when you don't have you feet on it, it's off.

  • Thing that sucks about living in Aus. Takes 6-10 working days to get my wah from the states.

  • that is the best solo that i saw in all week

  • 00:40 muse hysteria haha

  • @gato0rm ;P

  • If you add a fuzz or overdrive before the wah, it'll sound a lot grittier like Timmy C's.

  • @chris0186

    Take the power back, great bassline. So is bullet in the head and bombtrack.

  • @chris0186 sure!

  • it was orgasmic i just want my wah wah hey is this special far bass i don't now much about this

  • HYSTERIA!!!!!! XD

  • Nice video, what is the advantages of buying a wah for bass for such an increase of price, why not use a guitar one?

  • @Treve0 - thanks man! there's a lot of infos you can read about these things, i suggest you to make some research on Talkbass.com for more details,  but to answer to you pretty fast, a Guitar wah will cut too much of your low-end.

    it's voiced/configure to keep your low-end untouched! it's worth the price.. IMO!

  • @ileanaband cool, will do, thanks!

  • @Treve0

    I've just been on the phone with a dude from a well renowned music shop and I asked him the same question.. he says that it is possible to use a guitar one (and I have done in the past). but on some of the lows it loses tone with the bass. not sure why.. somthing to do with the design and frequency.. but yeah.. for maximum sounjd clarity.. the bass one is the go.. but yeah.. you can get away with the guitar one.

  • @PZMB666

    Nice one, will probably go for bass pedal to get a good tone then

  • @PZMB666 sure... but since it's BASS you're playin'! you want to keep that precious low-end! ;P IMO!

  • i like your shoes! :D

  • Nice!!!

  • Nice, you really know how to correctly manipulate that wah

  • Comment removed

  • What kind of bass are you using?

  • @fiddlemasta2000 - it was a American Standard Fender Precision 5 - rosewood board, 2008. i sold it a couple of months ago!

  • Dude ur pretty good at the bass!

  • oh helloe hysteria intro

  • daaayuum, thts awesome! methinks im gna get myself one, i love tht thing u did at 1:40! sounds like a 70s movie cop persuit

  • This video makes me buy one of these!!! Thank you Peobass

  • Same shoes dude!!!

  • awesom1! Never thought about wah wah on a bass guitar :o

  • is there a frequency knob?

  • wow... i haven't watch that video since i posted it.. 27k views!

    i just posted it cause i was selling that thing..! and now trying to buy another one... funny.

    thanks guys! i'll try to answer to a few of you right away!

    such a sloppy playing didn't know so many dude would listen that video!

  • @peobass Lol, why would you sell this...It makes a super awesome and fun to play instrument, even more awesome and more fun to play.

  • @N11Ckk123472 needed money to buy other things at the time...

    i kind of regret that now! ;P

  • @peobass

    nice shoes ;D

  • @NegerSkrapaN Thanks!

  • @0:43 , i have an effect pedal that has this same effect, i think its a sub-wah, not sure, my pedal has 7 different envelope filters. id trade it for this tho

  • That sound is just CRAZY !

  • Nice shoe =D

  • Nice vans by the way

  • i will have to get this when i finish paying off my Jackson 5-string.

  • just paid for my cry baby bass an hour ago on ebay...

  • yeah lol. IDK the difference between guitar and bass's crybaby

  • @TiedInChains it's easy: the frequency boosts are adapetd to the lower bass frequencies

  • Thanks

  • @mauileqwerty

    no problem

  • @poofythebassplayer21

    he used a "Morley wah petal"

  • watched this video so many times - i love it, cry baby is next on my shopping list...

  • @thebluedoughboy Thanks man!

  • Dude, thats cool :D

  • !!HYSTERIA!!

    MUSE \m/

  • Epic!

    Nice shoes...

  • If you plan on using the wah with distortion like a fuzz box then you can use a normal wah cuz youll already have a really trebley signal but if you want to do like clean funk stuff you should prolly get the bass wah. its about 30 bucks more. btw i love hysteria!!!!!! =] =]

  • dude. 1:07-1:14 is effing epic!

  • do you have to get a proper bass wah pedal to use it or can you just buy any wah pedal?

  • normal (guitar) wah's are sucking a lot of low-end out of your signal, so a special bass-wah is recommended...

  • oh ok do you know any good wah pedals?

  • Dunlop Cry Baby Bass Wah for example.

  • thanks man

  • haha, I just bought one! can`t wait groove the funk! :D

  • sweeet !

  • Can I Use A Vox 847A On Bass?

  • ya i was wondering the same thing, i LOVE that vox tone!

  • yea you can, but itll sound really trebley

  • that was sweet man!

  • i like the hysteria part...(the rest too)

  • sienfeld? anyone?

  • does muse's bass player use a wah pedal for that song? that sounded just like it

  • not sure, he might use a phaser

  • He uses a fuzz pedal

  • Ahh I thought I caught some light distortion but this might be it. correct me if I'm wrong but wah normally goes in front of other effects?

  • Ultra Funky!

  • how did you get such expressive wah sound? I ahve played around with the settings on my (new) crybaby bass wah ad haven't been able to nail down such a defined sound.

  • You need a lot of highs in your basssound. A precisionlike motown basssound is no fun with this pedal, but jazzbasslike highs are great with the 105.

  • Emo-shoe. But nice bassline. Thanks

  • not emo just emos wear them alot.

  • 1:09 - Jamoroquai - Canned Heat intro:D

  • nice demo

  • do you have any tabs for that?

  • Part of hysteria:) nice work;)

  • which is his price?

  • can i put a wah then an AW?

    or can i put wah then delay?

  • wah then delay.

  • Yep

  • so...

  • is the bass wah true by pass

  • no it works on auto-bypass...

    look at the end of the pedal

  • can a bass wah pedal be used with a guitar? i'm just wondering

  • Yes, it's possible. Of note the guitar player in HIM uses a dunlop bass wah.

  • ok thanx

  • and mars voltas guitarists uses one as well :)

  • Omar uses one as well? Now I'm definitely picking one up!

  • yeah i use mine with my guitar all the the time . but it does sound a bit wierd so i suggest you demo it with a guitar before you buy it to see if u like it

  • I have to get one too. Awesome video dude!

  • cool cool...i must buy it!..thx you!

  • :43 Yay Muse, great playing.

  • man i want this pedal sooooooooo bad....too bad i just spent 200 on a new 90W amp.....badly needed though, i had this shitty 15W loll

    guess its gonna have to wait

  • I want one of these so bad...i image it'd be pretty useful in ska music.

  • Haha. Bass Wah. Perfect!

  • Do you only use a cry baby on this video ? I hear a fuzz like on muse cover but i'm not sure because of the video quality. Please tell me what sort of fuzz or dist is good for bass guitar and sorry for the language i'm french.

    Enjoy !

  • Je pense que c'est est le crybaby, les wah donne un type de "fuzz" son quand il est utiliser, j'espere que cela t'aide.

  • Your shoes are sick, your playing is sick and damnit, now I need a wahwah pedal...

  • would sound sexy with some fuzzness

  • can i know ur setting?

  • are you improvisating ?

  • awesome pedal

  • AWESOME SHOES

  • pretty sweet, I'm not gib on SO much wah, but this is pretty cool

    keep rocking fellow bassist!

  • dude! that's exactly the effect i'm looking for, thanks so much. well, this and a phase shifter and i'd never leave my bass alone again, but still. that's a cool riff you have going, too.

  • how much are bass wah

  • that bass wah is $120

  • plugged in a bass to my guitar wah, it cost me about 25 dollars and it sounded exactly the same lol, Behringer HellBabe

  • ebay for $30...deals.

  • i dont even know what a bass wah is! ugh someone went onto my account...

  • Haha, I love the Muse at 0:42

  • Sounds really good dude.

  • hey what scale do you play in for that? i love the way it sounds. Really original like the old funk. lol and nice Hysteria part.

  • blues scale.. and i play around the Major and minor 3rd... with a few passing tone.

    thanks man

    keep groovin'

  • 0:42-0:52 <333333

    got tabs on that part? :P

  • hum... sorry it's pretty much different groove and songs that usually play like that...

    plus i'm for developping the "ear", so try to get it by ear! that's the best things to do to learn! 

    good luck!

    PO

  • that's the bass line from Hysteria by Muse. Look it up :) the tabs are everywhere on the net because the bassline is freakin' awesome

  • aha thx :D:D

  • Hey, how would this sound with fuzz after it? Do you think it would sound good for "For Whom The Bell Tolls" intro by Metallica, if you sweep your foot slowly?

  • absolutely.... try it before and after the wah for a different but  really interesting sounding

  • how do u play that stuff that starts at 1:40??

    ive been playin for bout 3 years and have never heard somethin that sweet

  • it's just like on a guitar... playing chords, higher on the neck, 7th chords, with my left hand playing like with a pick.

    good luck!

  • Nice, I have one of these but mine seems to have a short delay from the time you release the pedal and the time it switches itself back to the original sound source, difficult to tell from this video if yours is the same. Have you ever noticed such a delay or have i been stitched up? good basslines pal

  • yeah indeed, there's a little delay because of the "automatic" switch... in fact the Effect's engage when you put just a little pressure instead of having to push it at it's maximum to engage it... like other wah pedal.

    you can hear a bit how long it take for the effect to turn off at 1,16... it's really not that long and it never bothered me... you'll hear it tough if you sustain a note and put your feet off the pedal.

    Thanks for sharing!

    thanks for sharing!

  • So that's how you fucking use a wah pedal. Goddamn I feel stupid. I bought one for 40 bucks off a friend and thought he ripped me off.

  • lol

  • sounds sweet, thx for ul

  • that is sexy

  • do you thinik that this is beter than the bootzilla snarling dog wah?

  • i remember loving that one just a notch better when i tried the 2 pedals... but i can't really says if it's better... question of tastes i think.

  • spring loaded?

  • I "wah"nt you're shoes!

  • lol... good one

  • very nice

  • great job
