The Fly
There are different arrangements of this song when performed live by U2. Each has pretty unique sounds. This is my “Achtung Baby” version.
Performance Notes
This is a great Wah Wah work out song. I play the wah almost for the entire song. For the opening riff, for the verse texturing and for the solo. This is such a fun solo to play as its all up and down a single string almost (like Dave Murray from Iron Maiden). I put the additional STOMP and COMP on just for the solo. The rest of the song I leave the patch as is.
When I perform this song live I have started using a Jimi Hendrix Dunlop Wah because I prefer the extra throaty tone, you might be able to get a similar tone out of the POD. The Wah effect I have programmed into the POD is what I use for backup, as the POD doesn’t run out of batteries like my other stomp boxes do.
