Wah is an effect controlled by the Expression Pedal. A Wah applies a boost in gain to a narrow band of
frequencies. As the Expression Pedal is rocked back and forth, the center frequency receiving the boost is
swept up and down making the bass sound as if it is saying "Wah." The Wah is engaged and disengaged by
applying pressure to the V-Switch located under the toe of the Expression Pedal. See page 67 for more
information regarding the V-Switch.

Whammy™ is an effect that uses an Expression Pedal to bend the pitch of the incoming signal, or add a
bendable harmony with the original signal. As the Pedal is moved, the note bends either up or down.
When Whammy™ is selected, it is automatically placed before the Amp Modeling as shown in the block
diagram (see page 19).The Whammy™ effect must be linked to the Expression Pedal in order to function.
See page 62 for more information on linking the Expression Pedal.
