  • what cam do you film with?

  • Cry Baby, Cry !

  • I personally like the Ernie Ball because of it's wide sweep. btw this guy makes the Ernie Ball sound weak and crappy. Go check out the Blues Sarraceno demo of it, sounds awesome when he uses it.

  • Great progression @ 2:44

  • clyde

  • fuck, now i've gotta buy 'em all! ;-)

  • crybaby

  • can i put my hand on one of the wahs while you play?

  • crybaby

    

  • the ernie ball sucks

  • For cleans i actually prefer a Crybaby. However, with drive the Clyde surpasses the others.

  • I wanna grab those laces and pull em tight!

  • The Ernie Ball has more subtle differences in tone because it's got a much wider sweep. Your foot/ankle needs to move further but once you get used to it they are great. This makes it easier to find those elusive tones as the pedal moves through the sweep.

  • @Noseheros Lol. Im surprised. But full tone realy owns. Ernie ball is the worst here, terrible sound, so weak. 

  • Earnie Ball didn't sound that bad :)

  • @sayspain no every song. His live drive tone is just not possible if you don't have a wah pedal in the down position. Its not really an EQ thing, it doesn't produce the same sound. He revealed in an interview once he never has his wah pedal off, and if you look at him playing live you can see he always leaves it on :)

  • @06mgibson do you mean songs like rain song? i would rather use an eq pedal to get single coil tones out of humbuckers, but anyway it sounds cool, i got rid of the crybaby so right now I can't try it myself...

  • @sayspain yea man same for me XD i don't bypass it because I'm in a led zeppelin tribute band, and to get jimmy page's trebly tone you need to keep the wah in the down position most of the time XD.. i turn it off for joe bonamassa and hendrix and stuff though

  • @06mgibson I was too young when I bought the crybaby, ;-) , and I regret not getting the vox, it was a lot more touch sensitive than the crybaby. I believe that I'll get one someday but I really will need it to be true bypass or complement it with a buffer. Btw, does anybody know how wahs react to buffered signal?

  • @sayspain yeh you are right actually i found that with my old crybaby. Ive grown out of cry-baby's.. Vox - Wahs are better, but i actually prefer the 845 than the 847

  • @06mgibson I know, but when a pedal like the crybaby is off it still slightly affects the clean tone, and at least the crybaby kills the brightness of the dry signal...

  • @sayspain he's turning them off when he's not using them.

  • this is not pretty fair, the signal gets altered by the previous pedals, at least my crybaby was a really tone sucker when it was on the chain...

  • thanks
