    Love it! I'm on a major Tool kick lately. I basically missed out on most of Tool. I bought Undertow and saw them on that tour, but took a MAJOR musical detour and didn't loop back around to them (save for what I heard occasionally on the radio) until 10K, and then just to see them live once. It's like I'm hearing them for the first time and I'm getting the entire catalog (except Undertow) all at once.
    I'm so going to learn this one!

      Dunlop 535Q is hands down the best wah, I used to have a really badass DOD envelope filter, that was 20 years ago and I got rid of it for a real wah. It worked based on the attack, the harder you plucked the stronger the Wah effect. Sometimes I wish I still had it!
