The Grunge Wah Returns!

The Grunge Wah Returns!

The Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue is an authentic restoration of the expressive, throaty growl that became the collective voice of a new generation of wah. Designed with extensive input from the top early ’90s rock acts, it gave players the power to shape their own sound with a frequency selector, built-in boost, and custom inductor tuned for a uniquely warm, vocal tone. We dusted off the best-sounding model in our collection and recreated it part by part, original inductor included. For modern convenience, we added on/off LEDs for both the wah effect and boost circuit. Find your voice, and put some attitude into it, with the Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue.
