"Dont Buy This"

Feature:
Just 2 knobs both in which could be improved on

Quality:
My starting crackling then would go in and out then would change in volume in finally broke, i did tour with it and had it for almost a year but still all my other pedals are fine including my origonal cry baby for my guitar which came on tour and is 6 years old

Value:
I got it used for $50 so it did what it had to do but I wouldnt drop $100 bucks on it there are better wahs out there

Desirability:
its a pedal what more do you want

Sound:
The levels could never be set perfect enough either when you used it the volume when too high or too low, and the first few milimeters the bass always was the same just at a higher or lower volume and the Q knob didnt do all as much as it should

Ease of Use:
Easy to use kinda cept your only option is to start in the base position and go foward but if thats your style..

Support:
never delt with them

Overall:
the fact is there are simply alot better wahs out there, Snarling Dog makes a great way I went from this to the Booty Collins Signiture Wah and that has 10x more options, more range, better tone, an overdrive and it has on/off LEDs not to mention its just cooler looking as well

"A Great Beginner/Intermediate Buy!"

Feature:
The activation method (an IR sensor, not a footswitch like regular wahs) is a gift and a curse. Sometimes I wanted a funkier tone and stepped on the pedal all the way, but that meant my foot was kind of locked down and I couldn't employ my other effects. On the other hand, there's no 'clicking-off' required like on regular wahs. There is a slight lag with the effect of the wah if you activate the pedal very quickly, which might cause you to come in about halfway through the pedal sweep.

Quality:
The one thing that really bothered me about this pedal is that the teeth that rotate the potentiometer are /covered/ in a white lubricant. If the lube gets dirty /at all/, it can cause some major-league issues with pedal springiness.

Value:
For what you're paying, it's a great pedal; however, us bassists really have to shell out the bucks if we want /any/ good effect. If you're thinking about buying something else, go with the MXR Auto-Wah version of this pedal. It's got a lot of the same controls, but it's an envelope filter.

Desirability:
It's kind of a bland pedal, but it sticks out in a nearly all-black pedal chain (like mine). It's also very initially impressive and kind of...bold? That's a good word to describe it.

Sound:
The sound is okay. It works extremely well in the bass' midrange (anywhere in the middle of the neck or the A & D strings), but the low end sounds way too hollow, even after you mess with the Q control. There's also a really nasty point in the motion of the pedal where you get an earful of feedback if the Q's set to bring out your high end.

Ease of Use:
This is a very straightforward product, and it's great on it's own. Interfacing with other products, especially distortion/overdrive, can cause some less-than-desirable feedback noise. Worked almost too well with my chorus (Boss CEB-1) pedal, making some tripped-out synth sounds.

Overall:
I've sadly had this unit stolen from me and wish to purchase another wah, but my upcoming studio date has me wanting something much more high-end than this. It's a great unit for beginners and intermediates, but four-string veterans need to hunker down and spend some extra cash.

About This Product!
Description
Docs, Multimedia
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 pedal's 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's no better way to funk up your bass.

Runs on 9V battery power or optional adapter.
