TONE, TONE, TONE

Exception 2007 when he used duct tape to keep his wah on. Yes, that really happened. I think he was working on pickups and couldn't get what he wanted for a period of time. His tone improved later in the tour.

Some tool thought this was the case as well...not that long ago.

It's visible in photos. And that's exactly what it sounds like. A cocked wah.

Scroll down a bit. There's clearly gaffer's tape on the bottom of his wah. As if he didn't want it to travel all the way and shut off. It's not present in other pictures. So based in his tone at the time, and YT clips I've seen where it sounds and looks like he's trying to place the wah in a certain position after using it. Clearly staring at it and moving it slightly while playing rhythym. I assume it's taped to stay in that position. Again the tape is not there later in the tour and that duck quack is also gone. When I saw them in 2007 he sounded like typical Ed. No duck quack that is all over some YT clips.

Definitely much,MUCH better than previous 5153 tones he got.
This has me very intrigued about the el34 amp they are working on now

Also wanted to say i am hearing much more fire in ED's actual playing now
he really had the old groove back for LUTS!
would love to have been there live to witness this sound check
