Yeah, or maybe somebody said to him to quit using that wah wah pedal,
which inspired him to write "Wah Wah."

I agree. I always thought that the guitarists who used it, did
so...cause they didn't think much of their own guitar skills.

Same here. On the first post in this thread, it was mentioned that
with Paul, there was no bass end. I remember seeing in the film that
Paul was also using a Fender Bass Amp. I remember those being very
popular during the late 60's, like the custom amps. Today, those amps
sound horrible compared to what Bass players use these days. Do you
remember what other bass amps were popular back then..and if so, what
Amp would have given Paul a better sound?
