Every time I think of wah pedal, this song comes on my mind.

Basically any song on this list with use of wah wah pedal was influenced by Hendrix

Mike McCready tore the solo up on this one.

12 Dazed and Confused - Led Zeppelin

Yes. Probably when he was playing with the bow.

13 Wah Wah - George Harrison

A song so characterized by wah wah, that it bears it's title.

23 Money for Nothing - Dire Straits

Knoplfer said that he created the sound through holding the wah-wah pedal. Some say that he played the song with his tone knobs. However its very hard to play the opening riff. Only few of them were successful to make a similar tone with telecaster/stratocaster with wah-wah pedal.

However I strongly advice people to NOT vote on this item. Cause it's a very confusing tone. And shouldn't be in top 10. I just added it based on the creation.

24 Bridge of Sighs - Robin Trower

This one doesn't have a wah-wah on it; instead, Robin used a Uni-Vibe. A better example would be "Too Rolling Stoned" or "Shame the Devil".

25 It’s My Life - Bon Jovi
