Dunlop Original Crybaby® Wah Pedal

Yes, we're talking about the legendary Crybaby, the most stepped-on pedal of all time. It features a sturdy steel casing with a rubber-topped pedal. A 100k ohm Hot Potz potentiometer allows for that quick, abrupt wah sound.

So, what does it do? For starters, listen to Jimi Hendrix perform the awesome intro to Voodoo Child or Eric Clapton's solo on White Room. Try Steve Vai's amazing wah intro on Yankee Rose or Jimmy Page on No Quarter. After listening to the sound, you'll recognize the Crybaby in just about every rock player's repertoire.

How to create that classic wah wah sound

Operating the Crybaby is simple. Insert a 9-volt battery or plug in the Dunlop AC Adaptor. Run a cord from your guitar and amp to Crybaby's two jack sockets. Push the toe of the pedal down until you feel the ON "click."  Now step on the pedal, add pressure, and you'll smoothly transition into the wah effect.

By rocking your foot back and forth on the pedal, you can change the effect that the Crybaby has on the tone of your instrument. Toe down will give you more treble; heel down will give you more bass. The speed and amount of the effect you use depend on your playing style. When placing the pedal in one position, you will hear a boost in that particular frequency. This boost can add sustain and create feedback of a desired overtone.

Dimensions: 10in x 4in x 2-1/2in   Weight: 3.7 lbs
