CRY BABY WAH CM95 Guitar Effects Pedal

The Clyde McCoy by Cry Baby Wah Wah pays homage to the original production wah wah ever made. This modernized classic captures the throaty voice and expressive sweep of the original, while providing gigging players with the consistency and convenience they need on the road. As guardians of the wah wah legacy, Dunlop drew from decades of design and building experience to ensure that the CM95 faithfully represents the tone and spirit of the very first wah wah.

Years ago, we inherited the original tooling and machinery from the Thomas Organ Company and Jen Electronica, which were used to design and manufacture the first Clyde McCoy pedals. Combining these resources with our own 30+ years of experience developing and manufacturing wah wahs allowed us to create the most fitting tribute to the original Clyde McCoy Wah Wah.

The most crucial aspect of any wah wah pedal is its voice. The Thomas Organ Company and Jen Electronica used a special component called a Halo inductor to give the original Clyde McCoy pedals their highly-coveted smooth vocal quality. However, the original Halo inductors often added undesirable microphonic noise. Our engineers created the Dunlop HI01 Halo Inductor to solve this problem, updating the original design with a stabilized cup core to preserve the unique Clyde McCoy sound while minimizing unpleasant microphonics. The rest of the CM95’s circuitry is just as faithful to its forebear, featuring thru-hole components built into a classic housing with a premium pot, switch, and jacks.

Now, thanks to the CM95, you can take the classic Clyde McCoy sound out on the road and leave your vintage wah wah safely at home.
