    - A Wha Wha, period.
    - Analog Technology
    - Nothing is ditable on a computer
    - A simple jack guitar with two inputs (input and output)

    I put 8 or -2 for a ton of commercials from Dunlop.

    SOUND QUALITY

    - The effect is trs basic, personally I think it's a Wha-Wha correct and out good sound. But (I'm not the only think) that the race between the closed and open wha trs is short, too bad ...
    - I use a Fender Telecaster, a Squier Stratocaster, all on a Fender 15W amp and / or a Vox AD15VT (for home) and a Marshsall MG100W studio, multi effect with Korg, and occasionally with the scratching of my brother, a Shumberg SG

    - 2 for the average race ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    - I recently possde (for exactly 17h - March 5, 2008)
    - I like the fact that direct srieux matter. I tried the wha-wha of Behringer and I must say that there is no direct picture when comparing first and the quality of matrial utiliss. It's solid, it's even the heaviest pedals I port (for now). What I like least is the fact that we must fouttre all his weight on top of the pedals and turn and wha-wha. I read you can tweak the height precisely to facilitate the ACCS.
    - It seems to me that a former friend had the same guitar, and the very FIRST TIME I have test it even gave me said "Do not hesitate, you puts all your weight to turn, was going to break and all ... " This is the very first time I t as impressed by the robustness of pedals, so used the Behringer (even if I was super careful)
    - I know exactly the price rel (time of day) of the pedals. D'APRS Thommann, it is in the 110-120 and 125 traditional stores in retail price (of APRS Toulousain a music store that I usually frquenter). I paid 60, and a new individual. For now, I think I made a great buy.
    - Yes and no. I read that there are still enhanced version of these pedals, with just an EQ Intgr and all ... but ...

    PS: The photo Submitted on this profile is not correct. The photo is from the old version of Wha, not to frighten those who bought the same but do not recognize (like me ptdrrr beginners ...) I post the photo:



    A big thank you for letting me know Owned Signal)

    Wah everyone knows, there is thus an effect that "wah wah" and that dsenclenche when you press the bottom up press the switch.
    I find it just a shame it is not a true team-bypass of origin, even if a very easy to tinker (manip I did and that brings me full satisfaction ).

    UTILIZATION

    No need of manual, branch and basta! Can be connected to a string of power supply (I use a one spot).

    SOUND QUALITY

    The effect is classic, probably the most famous guitar effects in the world! I find it truly Russian in clean, or we keep all the dynamics, without being garish.
    T have a little less confident in its saturated or treble tend be a bit garish, and lose some serious dynamic,…

    T have a little less confident in its saturated or treble tend be a bit garish, and lose some serious dynamic, so they get a little tuft if we play in groups. I use it with a Start, maxon od-9 and big muff recently. But there may be a way to rduire running, Manir erase some highs (too high) and low (a bit choking). Important precision: I play a Fender Fat Start Blues deluxe us and I've never used a different config.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been a year since I have it. I am satisfied, it does the job, but I must admit that I expected better on distorted sounds. I have not tried other models of equivalents.
    With exprience, I do not think I jeterais over right away, I would try to Vox can be such before I DCID.

    Wah wah pedals which when touched.

    I noticed that often in the tranport of pdalier, the switch locks into position "no sound". In the beginners I was looking everywhere o the problem could come in my chain but now j'enclenche once the pedals and I found the sound by a miracle. It is insignificant as a stepfather, but even when I had a few cold sweats at the start when a concert the sound was gone strangely. I've even seen in the emergency bypass directly connect me to my pdalier live in the amp.
    So for those small inconvnients I put 5 / 10. Could do better.

    UTILIZATION

    Directions: you put your foot on it, you apply pressure to the front, which has the effect of activating the switch and dclencher effect. You move your foot from front to rear convenience (without forgetting itches course). Forward is acute, to the rear, it's serious. It's like they turned a knob your foot in rgl Tone gives a frquence.
    Wah-Wah that did. In fact it's funny, when you activate, you find yourself making wah simultanment with your mouth ...
    It's quite enjoyable as effects finally ... the wah wah's foot!

    SOUND QUALITY

    For my part I that the essay so I did not compare pure again.
    It is true that the effect seems to me well, I used to Rhythmic just plain funk and especially for the distorted sounds with Santana or Hendrix Ibanez Tube King or she wonders. For me suits me perfectly.
    The BMOL now: dterioration bypassed.
    I'm not a freak true bypass, away from because I Whereas many famous guitarists have recorded our solos prfrs Despite this inconvniement.
    But it's true that the pedals you do not eat a lot of treble in your circuit.
    Okay when used only say to me, but another couple of pedals without true bypass it, too, has come dterioration gives you a nice sound of your guitar . Try plugging in you live on the amp and you tell me the news. You are wasting bandwidth, especially in the acute but also a bit in the bass.
    The solution exists it is true: you can change this by changing the switch pedals and making a sort of bridge on the PCB. Number of tutorials on the web you explain in detail. But when same, although HP has ... also shows that a brand is aware of the problem and does not proppose a version of the pedals with the change in SERIES for a reasonable price. As a result, many users turn to other brands forcment Chres more. L I confess I do not understand, the IDE seems to me simple yet ... or there are constraints of marketing or technical m'chappent ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 13 years and I love the sound and sensaton it provides.
    Today, I plan srieusement to change to one that would not inconvnients above. For now I have not found that.
    It is not so I trs CHRE Whereas when the same report quality price is right.
    With the exprience and with money of course, I would choose over a MODEL.
    Come on, I put 7 / 10 as it is when a same legends.

    wha is a, there is an entrance and an exit outlet power supply over the little flap for the battery underneath, it's simple

    UTILIZATION

    the wah is very stable thanks to the pads, no noise (some people complain about the noise of the rack but you just grease.

    SOUND QUALITY

    We hear that's for sure, in clear treble and slap it feels to play in a bottle when you lift your foot (but I play very little light). In large disto (uh metallica solo ^ ^) the filter is shortened a little, slap less acute, and yes it better.
    on the other hand hello very breath and pedal off as I have a guitar that is worthy of a sub-m ** of that suit them

    The standard for all Wahs

    Dunlop GCB95 Cry BabyPublished on 03/21/11 at 01:39
    Thanks in part to Hendrix and the like from the 60s, it's generally accepted that nearly every guitarist needs a wah pedal on his or her pedalboard. The Dunlop GCB-95 is to wah pedals as the TS808 is to overdrive pedals. Nearly every wah pedal out there is compared to this one, and once you use it, you can understand why. Housed in a nearly nuke-proof enclosure, the GCB-95 features the bare minimum of things you need to get started in your quest for the latest adult film soundtrack.

    Thanks in part to Hendrix and the like from the 60s, it's generally accepted that nearly every guitarist needs a wah pedal on his or her pedalboard.

Housed in a nearly nuke-proof enclosure, the GCB-95 features the bare minimum of things you need to get started in your quest for the latest adult film soundtrack.

    UTILIZATION

    This is one of those pedals that'll withstand any abuse you throw at it. The main problem that ever goes wrong is that the pot goes scratchy/bad. Aside from that, there's not much that can go wrong. The recent revisions of this pedal are all surface mount components, so if you're looking to modify one, be sure you get an older model. Older models also had some different parts that many argue were better sounding than the current ones.

    SOUND QUALITY

    The sound of the GCB-95 is that of a typical wah pedal. It sounds like ... a wah. Stock, there is some decent tone suckage going on thanks to the buffered bypass. The most popular mod is to change out the stock switch with a DPDT or 3PDT one and make it true bypass. This mod is a must, IMO. There are also other voicing mods you can do, change out a few resistors for pots, adjust the sweep, add an LED and so on.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Those looking for a first wah, you're probably better off looking at the 535Q or one of the newer ones. This particular wah is starting to get a bit dated. However, if you find a non-surface mount component one and aren't afraid of modding, you can voice this mod to be more versatile than any of the boutique wahs out there. It'll sound just as good, or better, than some of the more expensive ones out there if you take your time to experiment with component values.

    See review previous ones.
    It is heavy and seems indestructible.
    Once ground up, it does not move!

    -2 For lack of bypass and the lack of led.

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple. It is trsractive; that said, for intensive use o activates and disables wah quickly throughout a piece, it is not Idale because you have all the same press hard enough on the switch and after a while it becomes difficult, if Prilleux.
    Better to turn then into a bustling wah and disable bypassing the switch, such as Morley, for example.
    Which is a shame, too, is that when the force is You Started the race since Frequencies Aiges, which sounded every beginner or note agreement Manir aggressive.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Faithful to its reputation, this wah is aptly named and is privilgier when paired saturation.
    The beach is wide enough frequency drives, allowing her to go a very very loud sound smothered.
    The lever n'tant not very important, it may be a bit delicately handle in the sense o it flies a sound one.
    Saturated in it pleases me a lot but I find it far too noisy to clean, at least for the purpose I have with the current directory group.
    To clean a more "smooth", he prfrera - which has repeatedly said t - a good old Vox.
    on the other hand, if we play dirty rock in mind, it is perfect and pierces the mix wonderfully!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought thirteen years ago dj is my first "fact" for electric guitar (I played while on a Valvestate 8240 with distortion and chorus intgrs). I always use it in my arsenal of effects group with my current group, this must be 3 years that I use each RPTE and concert.
    In the era, I do not know much at this stuff and I took too wah without asking any questions, all I wanted, too c'tait play a little Voodoo Child - )
    Now, with the exprience, I do not know if I would do this choice because I do not find it versatile enough (relative to the directory pop-rock-electro-funk group) and not enough practice there is good amount of wah much more versatile and functional on the market try (Fulltone Clyde Deluxe, G-Lab Wowee Wah, RMC, Dunlop Multiwah, CAE MC-404, Vox Big Bad ,...).
    Such a choice the era did not exist!
    That said, I will keep living as she does, she does it well. In the future I think I will put on a pedalboard east blues-rock that I'm trying to be me.

    The Dunlop GCB-95 Cry Baby is standard wah-wah pedal made by the masters of the wah - Dunlop. There are 1/4'' inputs and outputs and it is not a rackable effect.

    UTILIZATION

    Like most pedals, this was really easy to get going. I simply plugged my guitar into the input and sent the output to an amp. The effect is a standard wah/filter sound and while this model could have a greater sweep range, it definitely gets the job done. I have never seen the model because I bought it used.

    The effect with this Dunlop is very realistic and usable as a wah sound. I used it with guitar mostly, but it would certainly work with bass, keys, or any other instrument you could plug this into. While it isn't a versatile pedal, it does exactly what it advertises - gives you a good sounding wah-wah at a reasonable price.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had mine for about 6 years now and although I don't use it all the time, it is my only wah-wah pedal and use it whenever I want the effect. It is real basic to use and has an on/off switch to toggle with when you press down the front of the pedal with your toes. I've used some other Dunlop models and Vox models and while I like some of the other wah-wah pedals better, for the price I really can't complain. It gives you a nice sounding wah for a fraction of the price of some of the more expensive models.
