I think he uses a phaser effect but I'm not quite sure

Moogerfooger low pass filter. (Or just an envelope filter) also played with a six string but i guess you could drop the tuning on a four string.

I believe he's using an AutoWah for the effect

hear this tune and just couldn't get the sound close enough. thanks!
