Any of you guys/gals use this wah?

The MC404 CAE Wah? I had the Dunlop Crybaby Classic also with the Fasel Inductor and true bypass but wasn't very impressed with the sweep.

i just picked one up on ebay for $119. it's okay; not the best tones in the world (and not really all that different from other dunlops i've had/tried out), but certainly versatile enough to dial in something smooth with enough tinkering.

i'm eying a cantrell wah if i get bored with it.

I have one and think it's the best I've tried yet. I sold both my 535 and clyde deluxe after getting it. Different strokes . . . .

I have one - I definitely prefer it over the other dunlop wahs I've had (535Q, crybaby classic, GCB-95, etc)

Both of the voicings sound nice (I mainly use the yellow one), but I never really use the boost.

I hear ya JD. The Dunlop classic I got merely because I'm a tone whore and I do not like anything between my Herbert and my guitar. The classic according to Dunlop is their only true-bypass wah. However it didn't sound much different than the standard Dunlop.

The Cantrell doesn't look too much different.

One thing I really do not like about the Dunlop wah is the momentary switch you need to bang on to engage it. I was thinking about the standard Morley VAI-1 wah since it claims to be “true tone” bypass and is switchless - looks interesting. I really just want the wah, not all the Q stuff and whatnot.

i got one and like it alot.

it is very versatile.

that being said the new joe bonamassa wah has dethroned it.

Interesting:

Modified circuitry
The circuitry of the Dunlop Joe Bonamassa Signature Cry Baby wah pedal is custom modified to Joe's specs from the inside out. The modified vintage circuit has an internal switch that allows you to select true bypass or non-true bypass operation. Mr. Bonamassa prefers non-true bypass as it cuts off some of the high end and darkens his tone. An output buffer is also incorporated into the design to prevent impedance imbalance with your vintage pedals. Dunlop designed the Joe Bonamassa Cry Baby with a big vocal sweep range to accommodate any style of music.
