Description
Before the Crybaby became shorthand for “wah pedal,” it ran on Italian-made Fasel inductors — the unsung component behind the vocal, singing sweep that defined psychedelic and blues-rock tones alike. Those inductors vanished for years, and with them, a piece of the original sound. The Crybaby Classic GCB95F puts it right back where it belongs.
- Fasel inductor inside, delivering the same harmonic bloom and expressive glide as the earliest Crybabys
- 100K ohm Hot Potz potentiometer for a quick, abrupt wah response rather than a slow, mushy one
- Heavy die-cast housing built to take stage abuse for years
- Runs on a 9V battery or the Dunlop ECB-003 AC adapter
On the board, this sits early in the chain, ahead of gain and modulation, so its sweep shapes the raw signal before anything else colors it. Rock the treadle back for that vowel-heavy honk on lead lines, or ease into a subtler position and let it work as a tone filter that breathes with your playing dynamics. Whether you’re chasing Hendrix’s fuzz-wah interplay or Clapton-era blues phrasing, the Classic GCB95F is the pedal those tones were actually recorded with — not an approximation of it.
