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.

"zZounds offers a combination of low prices and quality service unmatched by any of their major competitors." - customer on April 26th, 2012
"Great wah! best bass pedal ever in the history of the world"
Sound:
The 105Q can give you a good funk like sound for slapping and popping or for just wah, like on black sabbath's NIB bass solo. Combine this beast of a wah with a boss bass odb-3 overdrive and have the set up on the odb-3 set for high gain (level 12 o'clock, high and low EQ 12 o' clock, Balance at 2 o' clock, and the gain all the way up) and have the volume and high Q on the 105Q all the way up and you get a great cliff burton sound and have wailing, screaming, earpierceing, cut right through the guitar and drum sound wah (have your signal chain go from the wah then the distortion, then the amp for a better screaming wah sound). This is the greatest pedal i've ever bought, i love it, i get great wah sounds, from a subtle woah, to screaming WOW! The pedal also has a nice range from heal to toe for movement, compared to the crappy morley dual bass wah, the morley has no heel to toe range and it's very vocal at all, the 105Q kills it. Also the cut out after you use the wah that you always hear about is nothing, i can notice it some, but my guitarist didn't notice it until i told him about it, and he is going to get a dunlop wah after hearing my wah solos, and my good metallica wah lines (this pedal combined with distortion gives you a great sound for anesthesia and for whom the bell tolls). Overall a great pedal, if you don't have one, get one now! oh yeah, sounds good when recording too, i tried it on my computer last week and it souned good, and was just plugging in! i'm going to get a Direct Imput box soon so my recordings will sound better.
Feature:
great for a wailing wah, or a subtle wah, tons of fun to use when i fool around with slapping and popping, and stupid funk stuff i fiddle with, but i play mostly metal, and band is just a general rock band and it works great for all my playing. I'm getting a 5 string next week and i tried it with a friend's 5 string and it worked great, i've had the pedal for 2 months and no problems, one tip though, if you wear long frayed out pants, kinda pull em up or keep them from getting under you wah when you use a toe down postion, cuz you look a little strange when you are attached to your wah by your pants, lol. also get a power adapter, i've always heard that wahs will suck down 9 volt batteries really quick.
Quality:
built like a tank, it's a beast.
Value:
BR>
Manufacturer Support:
I e-mailed them and they gave me all the info i wanted and answered all my inquirers.
The Wow Factor:
great color, white instead of the normal black dunlop wahs, built like a tank, can't destroy it.
Overall:
i'll never search for another wah, unless dunlop made a new even cooler version of this, but that will be hard to top. if this was stolen i would buy 2 or 4 or 1,367, cuz it rules.

"This pedal will ROCK your bass."
Sound:
This gives me an AWESOME bass wah effect. I used to use a normal guitar wah, but it sounded like crap. This thing really gets the job done.
Feature:
I love how easy it is to use. Simply click it on with your foot, and go nuts.
Quality:
I've actually kicked it off a 5-foot stage into gravel, and dropped it down a flight of stairs, and it works perfectly. Super durable.
Value:
Worth every cent.
Manufacturer Support:
This is my first dealing with this company, and I hope it's not the last. It's AWESOME.
The Wow Factor:
Super sexy, like that Morphine song(super sex).
"This pedal is super sexy.."
Overall:
I'm sure I'll use this pedal untill the day I day, unless I destroy it. But I don't see that happening.
