Dunlop 105Q Bass Wah Pedal

Wah Custom made just for the bass, the Ultimate Bass Wah features the proper EQ sweep for lower frequencies. You can get vocal-like tones and wacka-wacka sounds on the high or low end of the neck. Other features include increased pedal travel, silent, auto on/off switching (remove your foot from the pedal and the effect shuts off), "Q" control for variable wah intensity and a volume control with boost capability.

Dunlop, maker of the Original Crybaby Wah pedal, has introduced the 105Q Ultimate Bass Wah. The 105Q Bass Wah incorporates a new, proprietary potentiometer and custom EQ circuitry specifically designed for bass frequencies. Together, these new, uniquely engineered elements provide smooth response and a fat, full bass tone.

The 105Q Ultimate Bass Wah also includes Dunlop's celebrated Q control, which provides full control over the pedalís intensity and sound modeling. With the Q control, the player can select the exact wah tone desired, from bright and punchy to warm and subtle.

Simply stepping on the pedal engages the effect in the lower register, creating a smooth transition into the wah effect. When you remove your foot, silent auto-off switching automatically bypasses the effect. The built-in spring automatically returns the pedal to its "off" position.

Also included in this pedal is an adjustable volume control, allowing you to tailor the level of the wah from almost silent to a significant increase, providing extra gain for wah-enhanced solos.

The Dunlop 105Q Crybaby Bass Wah - There is no better way to funk up your bass.

Bass Demon from NYC, BALT, DC, VA, CHI, STL
Subject:Jimi Hendrix would Approve & Take it for a Crosstown Ride
Quality: Excellently built, structurally & electronically, solid, foot & floor-gripping HEAVY effect...refreshing in a sea of flimsy gadgets. I've had it for just 1 week: But Dunlop's confident enough to give a free 1-year warranty.
Features: The Q control gives the bassist huge control over the EQ sweep of the pedal--you decide how it's going to "talk." The vol.- control is mega-useful: For instance, set it @ max for soloing that'll cut thru the mix, b/c then the overall bass vol. goes way up when pedal activated. Impressed that you just need to remove your foot from the pedal to turn off effect (w/no clicking sound) & return to your default bass + amp sound, so no fussy buttons to stomp. The black strip on the upper surface of the pedal grips your foot; you won't slip unless you've got issues. I wouldn't add anything to this CryBaby: It does what it's meant to do and it does it real well.
Sound: While my bass gently (or wildly) weeps forreal.... Tone-range is nicely adjustable w/Q control & (duh) foot movement. I was happily surprised w/how expressive this babe allows you to be, Wah-wise: It makes your bass cry like a guitar w/a Wah, but since it's a bass you're playing, you're going to surprise lots of people in a good way, dig? Everyone expects a rock guitar to Wah b/c Hendrix blew the world away w/that that decades ago; for a bass this is a breakthrough. Tonal transitions resultant from foot-movement are smooth, w/no dead spots or missed EQ-range/s.
Playability and Feel: Very playable, user-friendly effect. Pretty addictive, in fact. The pedal rocks smoothly; it never catches etc. Unlike w/stomp-boxes, you'll have to get used to balancing more on one foot than the other while Wah'ing away, but that doesn't take more than 30 min. max of woodshedding unless you're tipsy or have a balance-problem. You want to have the Q and vol. pre-set, b/c like w/any other effect, it's down on the floor. But like w/stomp-boxes, you can fiddle w/the controls btwn songs & sets.
Tone: Tone has a superb range, which you can tweak w/the Q button: You can go from very deep-n'-dark to super-biting-treble, & these transitions allow you to get that famous Wah sound. As w/any effect, your bass + amp settings play a key role in just how low & high you can take it.
Finish: The white finish and black no-slip foot-pad were flawlessly finished in mine. Being white as snow, you won't lose track of it on a dark stage--a good thing. Easy-access, screw-free 9V battery compartment; clearly marked input, output, & AC/DC socket.
Action: Well-oiled action. Just plug it in & play.
