Cry Baby Mini Wah
Cry Baby · pedal
The Dunlop Cry Baby Mini Wah packs the classic Cry Baby's midrange-focused, vocal wah sweep into the smallest Cry Baby enclosure made, preserving the same responsive sweep and musical response curve as the standard-size pedals rather than a scaled-down or simplified voicing. It suits players who want the familiar Cry Baby wah character, from funk quacks to soaring lead sweeps, on boards with limited space.
