   Hey guys, welcome to my new wah-wah exercises lesson :)

In this lesson we are going to cover the basics of wah wah playing on the guitar, and by basics I mean different accenting of the same notes in order to get the right feel and control of the wah pedal.

When doing accenting of notes with your wah pedal, the most important thing is - timing. Be sure to know your timing and rhythm well, so you can move your foot precisely and independently from your hands.

Hopefully after this lesson we will be better at controlling our right foot and be prepared to do a cool funky solo lesson that I will do next. Stay tuned! ;)

This lesson contains:

- Wah wah pedal use
- Right leg exercises
- Coordination of hands and right leg

Impressive video setup and lesson! I like using wah more subtly and to only enhance certain notes, but that just a different style, and maybe you'll be going over some of that in the wah soloing lesson? I'll definitely be checking that out smile.gif

Well in the wah soloing lesson I will do a solo on top of the similar backing like this one, but I think those accenting licks can be applied to any style really. I've made it sound like funky solo, you must made it sound like something you like wink.gif
