I got yesterday the GCB-95 original crybaby wah-wah pedal. I am enjoying it very much!

For all of you who don't have one, it is GREAT for funky styles. It has a wide sweep (compared to vox) and quite thin and bright sounding. AT a fair price, too.

I can get really nice hendrix at woodstock sounds. It is good with overdrive, but don't put too mch gain on it, for it'll make ticking sounds.

ON clean it can really sound nice. Best used with bridge pickup for good sweep.

All in all, it is a good wah and i am enjoying it.

How functional is it in non-wah/volume mode????


My Morley is a great wah, but the passive/volume is poor at best

It has just a bit of tone suck, not too bad when you are not paying attention to it.

Everything has tone suck if it's not double pull (true bypass)

Yep, I've got exactly the same wah pedal, I use it all the time, with a bit of overdrive and delay for my blues/rock it's brilliant.
