Trying to get that cliff-ish sound when soloing with some distortion... is an 80s crybaby going to sound ok?

If you find it eating away your bottom end, add a boost pedal or get another Wah Wah that doesn't eat it away. |

Google for the technique and a full set of directions. That's how I found it. |

I can twist the growl and get a sharp Cliff Burton attack,
I just love it. |
