Dunlop MDU JCT95

Dunlop · pedal

The Dunlop JCT95 Justin Chancellor Cry Baby is a signature bass wah designed for the Tool bassist, built to handle low end while delivering expressive, vocal wah sweeps. It offers two switchable voicings plus a vintage fuzz and a bypass delay feature, letting bassists move between classic wah tones and more aggressive, effected textures. Voiced to preserve bass fundamentals while still cutting through, it suits progressive, alternative and metal bass players who want dynamic, dramatic wah and grit in the style of Tool's atmospheric, rhythmic basslines. The combination of dual voicings, fuzz and delay makes it a flexible expression tool tailored to modern bass playing.
