All user reviews for the Dunlop 105Q Cry Baby Bass Wah

Wah pedal for optical Bass by Dunlop
1 volume knob
1 button Q
standard 9v power supply
No Led

UTILIZATION

The pedal has not swith on / off, you press it snaps just that it already kills ...
After there where Dunlop to put the volume knob and the Q right next to the power supply and output jack I quibble but it's a bit lame to have everything on the same side almost the 'one beside the other

SOUND QUALITY

Wah pedal for bass numero 1 ... this is what he wrote there ... already the sound of bass is not eaten by the wah wah as with a guitar so there is no error is on the right product, little more was the setting of Q allows us to really carved all, first impression so far so good ... Phase 2 I plug my russian big muff, a little bit of Anesthesia ... and there ... on agreements plated recovering well sound the same side of the noise beast ... against it by the notes in Notes mode shred there I'm a little less convinced that spring is badly eaten, I feel that sometimes it even tends to croak ... otherwise it is generally correct, but no better

OVERALL OPINION

view the price 70-80 € HAND why not ... According to play Cliff Burton was the Morley Power Wah Fuzz to 300 € HAND so there it stings the Larfeuil ... alternative was the Morley Dual bass remains found on Paris else in order to Thoto, owl ... So for lack of better I might keep it for a good time

Bass Wah from the wah professionals over at Dunlap. Analog pedal with basic guitar cable in and outs.

UTILIZATION

The sound is awesome right out of the box. No need for a manual, other than it is interesting to note the q frequencies and volume controls.

SOUND QUALITY

I mainly use my 5 string Ibanez Soundgear Bass, but have since found that pedal excels for electric guitar too! There is a Q setting that allows a huge variety of wah tones, from the deeper (and below) tones of the Jimi wah to the higher voiced (and above) tones of the Morley Bad Horsie. There is an adjustment for volume, so one can get a wah that even with the original signal or go anywhere from a gentle boost (my preferred) to an aggressive volume boost. I believe this pedal has a high pass in the circuitry, allowing the lower eq tones to go untouched while the mid and highs receive the wah. I'm not sure if there are any other wahs out there with this feature (?) I typicall detune my guitar anywhere from E down to drop Ab, so having this hipass is probably the reason i really love this pedal on guitar. I bought it for my bass, but eventually it surpassed my original Dunlap, Jimi Dunlap, and Morley Bad Horsie. It helps that this Dunlap has the auto on/off feature that was previously only on my Morley (Dunlap now has a few pedals like this). This auto on/off is a HUGE asset for playing live- I like the Dunlap Original and jimi, but how many times did I thin "Is this pedal engaged" and they proceed to toggle on and off...this hampers creativity and performance. I love the auto, the hi pass and the tone is Dunlap-awesome.

OVERALL OPINION

This is a must have for any bass player, it adds a great character and provides a cool "swimming sensation". I love using wah for just a few notes at a time (rather than lengthy passages), so the auto off is an invaluable characteristic. There is nothing to note that I liked least, this pedal has been my goto for guitar and bass for many years now. I toured hard with it locally, so I grabbed a second pedal and this one has held up admirably. For bass, there is no other choice. For guitar, I may look into a the Dunlap Q wah, as it seems to have similar features but built for guitar. That being said, the hi pass on the low frequencies is something I have bonded with- I don't like a wah that just sweeps over and takes over the whole tone with a dramatic impact...that's good for an occassional effect, but too much for full usage. The hi pass allows pure bass tone to remain. This pedal is nailed to my board. Best review I've made; I love this wah!

Wha Wha Pedal Bass.

Not editable, not rackable.

Analog pedal, true bypass it seems to me, in good old metal brawny white finish with a very nice effect. 9V power supply, requires 200mA minimum.

An input jack, output jack, the input power supply.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is very simple, you can adjust the volume, which is very convenient for use for solos or conversely to calm things down if you want to use it for a wagon, etc. ... We can also adjust the Q, which is very convenient to define the race to change the tone for the classical guitar that I own example, I find the treble quickly become shrill and unbearable in the limit pedal.

The downside to these settings: the knobs for adjusting these are small, on the side of the pedal and not easily visible mark (notch on the knob, drawing of the setting) making it very difficult setting changes quickly between songs live. I had to add markers on the knobs and guides around quickly to see where you and in their race. This is really bad thought from Dunlop, -1.

Then there is no switch, then OK it's an advantage to have the system automatically switches back and for activation if you want to play fast on the Wha-half a riff or a few notes only, except that I'm using it on whole passages and I like to let wha an open and play without touching it, making it necessary to keep the angle with the foot while playing near ... impossible! In the studio I even ask my guitarist to hold my wha to a certain degree of openness that I needed a refrain throughout, just to play freely, a little heavy ... -1 (c good ' me is a little fault to be honest, I'll opt for the EBS instance rather than the Cry Baby 105Q Bass but since I've seen less than 40 euros I jumped on the occas ^ ^).

Get the effect you want: it is a wha bah, so you have to work a little and have the hand (or foot xD ... I know - ') with to get to do what we want but it's not rocket science!

SOUND QUALITY

Wha beautiful at the same time it is not a large effect on personality, it's Jim Dunlop and it makes Wha! But I must say that this version is very well done low, frequencies apply where the effect is very well chosen, the bass does not disappear because we put ourselves here to the Wah.

Sounds great on a bass but much too violent for my taste on a guitar (some players prefer the versions with guitar exactly why).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year, it's the only bass Wha I had done very well and his office.

A quality / price ratio to die, I got it in less than 40 euros in secondhand! By nine I can not find this very interesting report with prices ranging between 140 and 170 euros.

In view of my use of Wha, if I could have afforded it I would have opted for an EBS Stanley Clarke is the only Wha Wha low to meet all the features I'm looking for (but that frankly make me sweat whether a signature!). Today I'm too used to using it and I think I would do anyway that choice.

To my knowledge there's only one version of this unit available. It's white, with rocking, spring-loaded pedal, so it always returns to zero and shuts off as soon as you let your foot off of it. It has two knobs on the side to adjust the depth of the wah and the volume with the effect turned on.

As for myself, I'm about to graduate college with a degree in music, playing bass and piano. I've been playing in and arranging for bands, musicals, and writing tunes for various rock and pop groups in the area for some time now.

I got it along with an Electro Harmonix Mini Q-Tron at Piaons 'n' Stuff in Blawnox, PA, for just under $100. I can't remember the exact number, but it was definitely under $100. I bought it just for fun, because I wanted to try one out and I thought it could make a great addition to my effects board, which, before then, only contained a Tech 21 Sansamp that I used off and on. I'd say the biggest influence on my purchase would be hearing players like Bootsy Collins, Justin Chancellor, and Justin Meldal Johnson, work these effects like crazy. I wanted to do the same thing.

I like the various configurations and customization available with the volume and Q controls. Generally, when I want to use an effect, I want it to be big enough that everyone notices that I've turned something on. But sometimes, I just want it to disappear in the background. It can also be a great way to sound like you have the tone rolled way off in a quiet section by turning the volume down and holding your foot in one position on the pedal. Those two knobs, to me, make ALL the difference between this pedal and just about any other pedal on the market. It also, I think, manages to reproduce a bass-y signal through the full spectrum of the wah effect, giving it a full sound, not anything nasally like other pedals I've tried. (These 'other pedals' included, but were not limited to: Morley, Ibanez, and the Rockron Utopia. I found very little about them satisfactory. I even tried the guitar wahs as well with the same problem. There was ONE wah pedal, however, that I found, that could stand up to and in some ways best the Dunlop: the EBS WahOne. The only reason I didn't buy that pedal on the spot was the extra money it cost at the time. It has since largely come down in price, and I think it's the best wah on the market right now. EBS has never let me down with a single product yet.)
<br><br>
The fact that the adapter comes with it is pretty awesome too, though I recommend just getting a powered pedalboard and an extension cord/surge protector.

There are rare times where I miss being able to leave the pedal in one place and let go to do other things with other effects. But those instances are few and far between, and I usually am very thankful for the spring-loaded rocking pedal. This complaint is minor at its worst. The only actual complaint I have is that I would like the knobs on the side to be just a bit more accessible to users for on the fly adjustments. Dunlop did well to keep them out of the way (so they have much less chance of breaking off on rough days), but making them just a bit larger could make a good deal of difference live, I think.

It'll put a hole in my wall before it'll get a scratch on it. I was worried about the white paint looking dirty when I bought it, but there isn't a single mark on it. It's heavy enough for me to believe that it's probably some kind of steel. I'm not worried about it breaking at all. I've had it for about 8 years and it still looks like it's in pristine condition and works perfectly.

It's only competition is the EBS Wah-One, and that's a very different design: namely, it's a switched pedal, where the Dunlop is switchless. It's unparalleled as a bass-wah otherwise in terms of tone and simplicity and efficiency of design. For $110, or even $210, you probably couldn't do any better than this pedal. Go ahead and compare it to the boutiques, too; I'll stand by it after they stop making them. As far as I'm concerned it's the best there is.

Got it for about £90 in Creative Electronics (local guitar shop.) I was after a good wah for bass that would work well with Fuzz and clean.

The construction. The sound.
It sounds very wah-ee. It has an Auto Q, so it turns off once u take ur foot off it. Volume and Tone controls so u can change the overall effect it has on ur signal. It looks cool and sounds the shizz on stage with a bright Fuzz.

It has a delay on it wen the auto q kicks in to stop it turning off while u rock it (violently i guess.) It was a pain in the arse till i realised u can turn it off by turning a pot inside the casing, although i think this voids the warantee. It has ALOT of bass with the heel down, so just be careful. Apart from that, its sound.

Very good. Better than Boss in some aspects.

Very good wah, but unless u play music thats phycadelic or funky or want a Cliff Burton-esqe pedal for screaming overdrive solos, i say its not worth it to fiddle with in the bedroom. I use it alot, and its my favourite effect along with comp and fuzz. Id DEFINATELY buy one again if something happened to it.

My Music Teach gave this to me cause he just bought a line6 pod and didnt need his wah.

funky effect, seeing as i play alot of red hot chili peppers and funk like grooves, definatly a good effect.

its not auto wah so you have to press down on it every time you hit a note which can be a pain because i play very fast bass funk lines, so this was a major problem.

Looks like a brick, heavy like a brick feels like a brick, builts like a brick. If i breaks id be surprised.

If your into funk go and grab this or a DOD Envelope filter for 50 bucks cheaper. At least the DOD is auto. So if your into fast playing dont get this! but smooth playing go and get it!

I got this one at Guitar center, from the nicest woman i could know, i wanted to try the bass wah cause i wanted to spicen my tone, and i only had $70 and the price was at $100 so she went out to her manager talked and offered it to me for 70 bucks, it was like a miricle!!! I laughed about 6 months later i came back and its priced at $110 now

I love everything about it, it makes everything sound good, and it really sounds cool by itself.!!!

Theres nothing i dont like about it, it just seems like a perfect pedal that should be added to everyones list.

It is the most durable pedal you will ever see, mine has gone through a lot already such as rain, being dropped *stupid drummer lol* and other ways to abuse it

This pedal should be added to every bass players arsenal!!!

I spent ages saving up to try and buy this fantastic pedal at NMC (nepean music centre: mornington, victoria, australia)

I totally love the sound u get out of this pedal especially how u have total control of the sound and thats what makes ur unique sound. i also found that it kinda filters ur original normal amp sound just by plugging it in

i cant say anything bad about this unit

the construction is very good on this unit, it is sturdy and it has a long warranty

well if u want to make ur own artifitial sound then this is the way to go
after a while u learn how to properly se it to distinguish the right emotion of the sound

I purchesed this product at Guitar Center fo $99.99.

Whats not to like about this baby? It had great sound great reliability awsome wha wha sound! All at an afordable price!

There wasn't anything that i did not like about this unit.

the construction of the 105q was remarkable! It's heavy-duty construction lets you stop it till you cant stop any more! The spring loaded pedal is just anther thins that makes this pedal worth having! It's well worth the money!

If you looking for that great funky wha wah tone that so many bass players whant, then this is the product for you!

This is a wahwah was optically triggered the foot is placed on it and off you go!
Q is adjustable and also the volume.

Negative:
- If you do not want to stack, we need a specific power supply or buy an adapter plug 9V battery / power supply standard type boss, damage

UTILIZATION

Use alone or with a Bass Big Muff upstream corner to corner, very good coupling these two there.

It's a bit much hassle to set the volume nOnce but it's done, no worries.

Tip: there is a screw to adjust the inside to manage the gap between when the pedal is loose and when the effect stops.

SOUND QUALITY

The effect is very good if you want a wah round, snapping too.

For a more slap crazy, you better go see in morley.

OVERALL OPINION

It is in my PB for quite some time and it does not go out.

The optical shutter release is nikel

Wah a lot of references to
Latrale PSU connector and requires good quality (or battery)
Battery cover a bit fragile (mine was broken without any shock, trs'm careful)
Back to "off" automatic ds we lve our (heavy) foot.
Rglage UNDER the pedals. This is my BMOL. Live, ill take you imagine all the jacks to lift and rgler all a. Potentiomtres 2 (1 10) = 1 Volume and 1 Tone (Bass / Aig

UTILIZATION

Easy to find a good sound.
Besides those who will please you will probably be many so do not forget to take your back.
Better to put at the end of the loop to apply the totality of the signal before a partner in the tubes.

SOUND QUALITY

For those who know the subject, Wah bass you can find anything.
But this guarantees the quality.
Place is made to the feeling of the user (following the rglages and modulation)
Wah-wah of the rear of the throat to Win-win step to the front, everything is uen with heat that will delight many.
a move even if we attack a little bit (of course, Viton slap in the rglages AIGS)

OVERALL OPINION

My drummer and my guitarist have offered me for my last birthday (... but ... but-but-o silent so the singer ????)
I thank them still in the process.
C'tait Wah even if I wanted a little onreuse (around 200 euros)
I use bcp with a bit of saturation (ODB-3) and the icing on the gteau with a Flanger.
was immediately puts the gun to the head of the guitarist who has that better watch out!!
It is easy so I could buy another wah if and only if I feel better, which will not be easy given that brands are not care-against bassists.
And even if I find better, I will invest without selling ... it's a gift!

Q bass pedals wahwah variable.
Automatic return of the pedals, a jack in, one out, by electric power transformer or battery (9V located under the pedals) 2 knobs on the cot left: volume and Q (large or small)
the battery box is not super tough ... otherwise, good finish!

UTILIZATION

It's a wah-wah ... not need to use manual
Adjusting the Q is effective! and by adjusting the volume and Q is bound to happen that we seek

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality is l. Like all bass wah, it is much more effective in acute than in the bass. I always use it on battery and I jam buzz or breath of this particular pedals.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years, hyper-solid (well casing mtal brooms!)
I like: the sound, the two settings, the automatic return ...
I do not like too much: the box stack, instrument jack that can jam the rear of the pedals (when she returns) and not remove empty when we play

Adjustable volume gain telephone marketing as well as the value of the wah (Q) power supply of standart leffet pedals interlock with the push of the foot

UTILIZATION

T there are two knobs easier? The rglages are quite instinctive everybody will find his account for a small iron groove funky riff for a couple then a large distortion
big advantage: you take your foot off the effect stops because it has no pedals pushed in the background has to cut her down and then the effect fades allowing effects to cut quickly to other pedals

SOUND QUALITY

The sound quality is good but like any preferences wha use on big amps to get a quality notement optimal to have a good sound on a string If

OVERALL OPINION

Trs good pedals whawha despite its price can be a little deterrent (as the list price of 219 euro) but this price is somewhat obselte in stores where you can find a good price. Personally paid 160 euro it is essential for good pedalboard
