How do you even make a guitar sound like this? Some pedal? It's definitely no DigiTech Looper.

You can run a guitar signal through all kinds of FX pedals. It's just an electrical signal so it can be altered as much as any synthesizer. You can take out highs lows mids, add overtones, harmonics, the possibilities are endless. Without FX pedals The Edge wouldn't have a career

It's a filter, like the typical guitar 'wah-wah' filter, but using a lowpass filter with moderate q-value instead of a steep bandpass filter. The cutoff frequency can be controlled with an envelope follower/generator (automatic), mechanically (rocking a foot pedal) or both.

I'm also hearing a pitch shifter (could be a DIGITECH!!! unit).

You fags with your paragraph explanations. Here's the answer: Digitech Whammy.

can't say I ever expected to see this posted here lol. this performance was the first time I had ever heard an electric saxophone; I didn't even know those were a thing

Kinda sounds like a whammy pedal mixed with some phase/flange and harmonics at times. The whammy pedal is giving that squeal. Think Dime's riff on Becoming.
