Excellent point! I've done that on a couple of swing & funk tunes that have horns. "Jump, Jive & Wail", "In The Mood", "I Feel Good".

That's so exactly true. :D
[QUOTE=maggior]I use it for the solo in "Heard It Through the Grapevine" (the Gladys Knight version) and I've used it in blues jams just to present something different.

Oh, song examples! Rich, what a great idea I should have thought of. :p

I use my autowah when doing "Play That Funky Music", "Superstition" & sections of "Word Up". I used it quite a bit during a couple of songs in "Disney's Tarzan, The Musical". There are a couple of songs that cut from wah-funk to other styles pretty quickly & it helps to be able to just jump from one setting to the next without having to disengage a standard wah.

I'm using the autowah on one guitar in this vid. You can hear when I kick it in @ :44-1:00. :)

And in this one along with a MuTron setting:

And a standard wah in this one. Helps to use on longer phrasing.

Awesome feedback, Rich! Thanks for chiming in. :)
