Description
Designed alongside Zakk Wylde himself, the ZW45 is a Crybaby built specifically for players who live in high-gain, metal territory. Rather than a general-purpose sweep, its guts are voiced to Zakk’s own specs, pushing an extra-thick, cutting midrange that punches through saturated amps and stacked distortion without getting lost or thin.
- Raw-metal casing and roadworthy internal components built to survive relentless stomping and touring abuse
- 100K ohm Hot Potz potentiometer driving the pedal’s sweep for a responsive, musical wah range
- Effect on/bypass toggle switch located at the bottom of the pedal’s travel for quick foot-activated switching
- Runs on a single 9-volt battery or a Dunlop ECB-003 AC adapter (adapter sold separately)
On the board, the ZW45 earns its place with lead players chasing an aggressive, vocal wah that stays articulate under heavy distortion and high output pickups — think screaming leads and expressive rhythm chops rather than subtle funk sweeps. Its durability makes it a solid choice for anyone who treats their pedals hard on stage, and the toggle-style bypass keeps the signal chain simple: step down, engage, and go. If your rig demands a wah that can hang with brutal gain stages and still cut through, the ZW45 is built for exactly that job.
