Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.48% — somewhat different

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 Friedman Gold-72 No More Tears is a premium wah pedal designed to deliver vocal, throaty wah character with extensive user customization. A three-position sweep switch hidden under the treadle allows selection between three different sweep voicings. An Allen screw under the heel adjusts treadle tension to individual preference. Switchable between buffered bypass and true bypass operation. Covers Hendrix-style vocal wah, Schenker-esque cocked nasal tones, and weeping lead wah sounds.
