The Dunlop Cry Baby 535Q Multi-Wah is the Swiss Army Knife of wah pedals, released in 1994 with six selectable wah frequency ranges, a variable Q control for adjusting filter resonance width, a boost button for added volume, and an adjustable boost level. The six frequency range modes allow players to choose from classic wah sounds to more vocal, pronounced, or subtle sweep characters. This unprecedented level of control makes the 535Q the most adjustable Cry Baby in the lineup.
The Dunlop Cry Baby GCB-95 is the legendary wah-wah pedal defined by a responsive sweep, musical response curve, and classic rock pedigree. Its simple single-pedal design provides expressive tone-shaping from funk quacks to soaring lead wails. The GCB-95 remains the standard wah pedal for rock, blues, and funk players worldwide.
