The Dunlop Buddy Guy Signature Cry Baby is a wah pedal built to the specification of the Chicago blues guitarist, whose expressive, vocal-like phrasing makes heavy use of the wah as a tonal voice rather than a rhythmic effect. Signature Cry Baby models typically adjust the sweep range, Q and inductor choice to suit the artists playing style rather than changing the basic circuit topology. It suits blues and blues rock players wanting a wah voiced for expressive, singing lead lines.
The Dunlop Dimebag Cry Baby From Hell is a custom-tuned wah pedal featuring an extra-wide frequency range designed around Dimebag Darrell's aggressive playing style. The pedal delivers everything from throaty growl to all-out screaming highs, with a broader sweep than standard wah pedals enabling greater expressive range at both frequency extremes. The six-way tone control shifts the frequency range up or down to adapt the wah character to different tunings, pickups, and tonal contexts. The pedal features true bypass with fasel inductors to avoid tone-sucking, and dual LEDs indicate pedal and boost-function engagement.
