The Dunlop Cry Baby GCB95 is the standard-production version of the original Cry Baby wah pedal, built around a Fasel red inductor and a halo-style pot that defines the classic late-1960s wah sweep character. It produces a midrange-focused vocal sweep that sharpens attack on distorted lead tones and adds expressive movement to clean rhythm playing. Heavily associated with the foundational wah sounds of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Slash, and Tom Morello, it is among the best-selling and most widely used wah pedals in production. Genre fit is broad: blues, rock, funk, metal, and psychedelic rock all use this pedal's sweep as a core element.
The Dunlop Dimebag Crybaby Signature Wah is a wah pedal designed in collaboration with Dimebag Darrell Abbott of Pantera, tuned for his heavy metal wah tone with an extended frequency sweep range and distinctive voice suited for his aggressive heavy metal rhythm and lead playing style. Features the classic Cry Baby rocking-chassis wah mechanism with Dimebag's preferred wah character. Dunlop signature wah series.
