Cry Baby Dunlop 105Q CB Bass

Cry Baby · pedal

The Dunlop Cry Baby 105Q is a wah pedal designed specifically for bass guitar, affecting only the mid and high frequencies while leaving the fundamental low-end untouched. Features a variable Q control and Volume control. The bass-specific frequency response preserves low-end punch and avoids the low-frequency thinning that guitar wahs apply to bass signals. Available in a distinctive white housing. Recognized as the standard bass wah in Dunlop's Cry Baby lineup.
