EDGE + WHAMMY + "BAD" = Awesome.


I've always liked the early June 1992 versions of "Bad".

It seems that Edge decided to add a bit of Whammy in places. I know I've see/heard it in this footage from Rotterdam 1992 and also the Stockholm 1992 show.

I thought it was a nice added flavor. If they play "Bad" on the next tour, it would be cool if Edge did something like that again.

I love the sound, but the whammy sounds too much because of the delay with high mix of repeats. I know it depends on people, but I think I love the song as is.

I wish Edge use Whammy in the solos here and there like Tom Morello; too bad Edge will probably go for Axe-Fx model for whammy on the next tours.
 
Wow! Thanks for sharing I kinda like the way that sounds, also not sure if I'm hearing correctly but is Adam using Bass Pedals? Please don't laugh at me. I'm not a musician at all and listening to this at work on my crappy speakers.
 
I saw this vid once again and I think Edge should start using whammy all over in Bad and even other songs. Come on, make that happen
