Re: Wah Wah, Re: [bomp] You can even make your coffee taste like a sitar!

I don't mind wah wah pedals, in fact I like them, but they can be abused by overuse. 
  Some people know how to use them, others don't.

I don't care for them either. Probably because of all the kids who  try to use (overuse) a wah noise in place of an actual guitar solo. A  competent player *might* squeeze something good out now & then, but  I mostly see them used as an ugly-sounding crutch.
   
 If  someone in your band shows up for practice with a wah wah, do what I  do: whenever they look away, kick it on and make an awful noise. When  they turn and see you operating their new pedal, do not stop. Make them  sound as bad as you can. The rest of the band will be laughing, maybe  the deflated weah-owner will laugh too.
   
  I have never been in a band where any wah wah lasted beyond one rehearsal.

I didn't think it was a takeoff on that at all. Really, it's just 
another in their Bad-Good-Best series. 

They just use a Wah-Wah pedal 'cuz it's the Wa-Wa market. But you do 
hear them play through a Wah-Wah pedal. (This is *not* going to get me 
interested, since I've never liked those things.)
