If you have to ask, you can't afford the answer

Yes, definitely wah at about the 1:03 mark.JCJR wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 10:02 am Sure sounds like wah from 1:00 to 1:10. I don't hear him "clicking in the wah" and the tone seems identical with smooth tone transition right before he starts wah-ing. So possibly he has a wah enabled and using it as static tone control over a wider stretch of the song. Dunno my ears were never golden or even tin. Several parts of the song do sound selectively static band boosted as could happen either from static wah, EQ, or any number of other fx including effed-up cab mic placement.
I think you're right that for the majority of the track the wah is just being used as a static filter so if there wasn't that little passage you wouldn't even know it's there.
You could definitely get a tone like this without the wah though.
Just go full fender and tweak things until your satisfied.
Can't deny the playing is a huge factor though.
