Hejsan! Vilken wahwah-modell använder du?

[BjornRiis]

@danielfranspanga

Dunlop Cry Baby GCB95

[garbeaj]

Fantastic demo! I have an original 79 Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man...what exact settings on the knobs of that unit do you use? The milliseconds designations don't relate to the Memory Man or other analog delays. I'm sure he used the Binson EchoRec...

@garbeaj

I think 300ms is around 10 o'clock. At least on mine.

A question, can doing this damage the wah pedal? Not sure if it's coincidence but I tried this effect and then noticed a drop in volume on my pedal when using it in the normal manner.

[BjornRiis]

@ColinPRS

No... only your ears and speakers if you're not careful with the volume :)

BORINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

@EnragedSlash

Thanks! Oh bloody hell, now i have to buy a wah :D

[slipknot604metallica]

you sound like arnold schwarzenegger

[EnragedSlash]

@Gruhak i did it with my gibson ES, i think you can do it with your telecaster as well :)

[PinknessOfFloyd]

@Gruhak

Indeed....

[Gruhak]

can this be done with a telecaster? great job btw!

[danielfranspanga]

@BjornRiis Tack så mucket!

i got myself the crybaby and did this and i had trouble doing it the right way i worked it couple times and i got it ,i spent one day just messing around with it .i hooked my bass to and it does it with a bass too!!if you have another pedals such as whammy flanger chorus delay .specially i have the whammy i keep rotating the pitch switch and you find yourself with tons of insane ways to listen the gilmour segull effects.

[bengativo6]

@doodleguitarist yes thats the one too.and the one on the jam corrosion in the pink room

[garbeaj]

@BjornRiis What about the other knobs? The Blend, Feedback and Delay knobs that is. I have tried it with all three around the 10:00 mark and it seems to work well. There is a factory red mark on the unit at this spot on all three knobs by the way. I can't believe how great this sounds! I have an early 70s Vox wah and an original '68 maple neck "Woodstock" strat and this trick sounds dead on just as you say. Amazing that with your help I've finally got this trick after all these years!

[CaptainSiberia]

Very cool.

[NolanKevin7]

This is incredible! I always thought it was Rick who made those sounds. Great post!

A question, I noticed that when I do this, I can't get the 'laughing' effect when you dip the volume. You think you can help? Everything else works but the 'laughing' part. I have a vox wah-wah model V847 and a digital delay.

[doodleguitarist]

I also think he used this effect in "Is there anybody out there?"

[caincolesr]

That guitar is freaking beautiful bro...

[BOKATEUKOKA]

Tried it with my Tele and a standard Crybaby GCB-95 bought in 2010 and modded for true bypass.

Works like a charm I'll be doing this for days without end, thanks!

[Panthur6502]

How does this actually work. I don't mean in terms of connections, I mean what's happening electronically to produce the tone ?

[coolmodine]

@BjornRiis Yeah, I tried it with a 535q. It didn't work.
