The Dunlop Cry Baby Standard GCB95 is the original and most iconic wah pedal, the basis of the entire Cry Baby wah lineup. Features a simple single-rocker design with one Rate potentiometer controlling the wah sweep range. Powered by a 9V battery or DC power adapter. Produced since 1966 and used on countless classic rock, blues, funk, and psychedelic recordings. The standard wah pedal against which all others are measured. Single inductor circuit with halo-style inductor.
The Gull Wah extends T-Rex Engineering's boutique pedal catalog into wah territory, applying the Danish builder's reputation for premium components and road-ready construction to the classic sweeping, vocal-like frequency effect wah pedals are known for. Wah works by sweeping a resonant filter across the frequency spectrum in response to a treadle, producing the expressive vocal quality associated with funk, blues, and psychedelic rock lead playing. T-Rex's approach across its catalog generally favors musical, touch-responsive circuits over extreme or gimmicky voicings, and a wah from this builder would likely follow that same design philosophy.
