Which do you prefer: Dunlop wah pedals or the Fender fuzz/wah pedal?


Well, It depends what you want really.

If you want fuzz with a bit of wah on the side (Almost exactly sounding like Jimi hendrix sound) then the fenders for you. Its possibly got the fullest, thickest sounding fuzz ive ever heard on it, but unfortunatly the wah isnt very good....

Oh, and if you want a decent wah pedal, it doesent get much better then the dunlops/MXRs, they're pretty good, Especially for the value they make some great stuff. I have a MXR distortion plus and i prefer it to just about all the boutique stuff, its really good!.

i've my dunlop crybaby (which was purchased used) for a few years now, hasn't ever failed me yet. by the way, turn your volume down, and then plug the wah in backward. MAKE SURE THE VOLUME IS DOWN BEFORE ATTEMPTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't like the Fender because of the wah side of things. I've owned 2 Hendrix Cry-Baby's, like them more than the other Dunlop's. Very, very throaty with my Little Big Muff.

I'm a Dunlop Original Crybaby man for eons now.

I've always been interested in the Dunlop Hendrix &
the Classic Crybaby w/ the Fasel inductor as well, but
i've never bought either of them at the moment of truth.

I also like the VOX V847 alot but it's always been the guitar players
i've played w/ who have had them so i've never bought one myself.
I prefer to have a different wah sound to the cats i play w/ anyway.

If i had money to burn though, i'm positive i'd
have a gigantic arsenal of different wah pedals.
But, since i don't, i usually only buy wahs when
i'm forced to, in order to replace a broken one,
as i'd usually rather put any extra gear money
towards a guitar or other stuff i don't have...
&, even then, i tend to go w/ what i know.

I'm pretty Brand Loyal like that though.

I'm really not a fan of Fender effects.

agreed, I've yet to use another that was as quality and/or as good as the V847
