Both the A and the O in the word above are schwas. It works like this: uh-buhv Whenever a vowel that is not a U sounds like a short U, it is considered a schwa.

The schwa sound in the word "above" is the short, unstressed sound "uh" that is often represented by the symbol /ə/ in phonetic transcriptions. It is a mid-central vowel sound that is very common in English pronunciation.
