Wah Pedals

Wah pedals use a foot-controlled filter to sweep through frequencies, creating the vocal-like sound heard in funk, rock, soul, metal and psychedelic guitar playing. They can be used rhythmically, expressively or as a fixed tone-shaping filter.

A wah pedal gives the player direct physical control over the effect, making it feel highly responsive and personal. It can make lead lines sing, rhythm parts talk and heavy riffs cut through with extra attitude.
