Apologies for the bump but the gong still hasn't arrived, I think I'm going to have to ring the company that sold it to me to make sure they're not screwing me out of £60.
In related news I've ordered a lapsteel guitar and wah pedal (given some money by grand parents). |

Use the lap steel with the wah! It would sound awsome! |

 at least one sod is awake (and probably drunk as well, looking at what he wrote).

The obvious thing to do is mic the gong, then put the output through the wah. While randomly and violently shaking both hands near the theremin, of course.

ah but I may not get a gong (depends on result of a phone call this morning) and my amp can only have one instrument plugged in at any one time, I really need to get a small mixer.

^You could record the wah'ed gong with a taperecorder or something, and
play the tape while randomly shaking your hands around the theremin.
That way you can have your cake and eat it.

I don't have anyway of recording
 Anyway I tried to phone the company I bought the gong from and no one answered the phone so I'm going to give them another go tomorrow. |

With a small mixer, you could put the outputs of the theremin, mic'd gong, and slide guitar ALL through the wah at the same time! You'll make more random noise than the M00dy N00bs and Decapitated Walrus combined! MWAHAHAHAHAHA! |

That reminds me of what Neil Peart once said about Geddy Lee:
"He's amazing, he plays bass with his right hand keyboads with his left, he sings, and plays bass paddles with his feet. He's only got one limb left and I don't want to know what he plays with that...."  |

Ah but my foot won't produce as good a noise as the proper beater and I'd have to use my head to play the theremin  |

You tape the beater to your foot. And playing Theremin with your head would be so kickass! |
