HB01 Hell Babe : Versatile and (relatively) cheap
This pedal is supposed to be based on Dimebag Darrell's signature Wah, the Cry Baby from Hell, which is usually £150-£200. This is pretty much identical, but it's 1/4 of the price.
The Hellbabe is optical, so there aren't any pots or moving parts that can get cat hair stuck in them. It also doesn't have a button to turn it on, instead activating when you put your foot on it and turning off after you remove your foot. You can adjust how long the pedal stays on after you take your foot off but the default setting is near immediate.
The sound is surprisingly good for a pedal this cheap, and is very versatile coming with several knobs, so that you can get the exact tone you want. I mostly use this for metal and it's great for that.
Initially, I thought that the pedal would feel flimsy and cheap, due to it being made of plastic. However, only the rocker is made of plastic and the rest is made of (I'm assuming) steel. Despite the rocker being made of plastic, it feels very sturdy and will probably last a few years of use at the least.
You can adjust the resistance of the rocker but, like the timer adjust, it feels great out of the box.
I feel like this is one of Behringer's highest quality pedals so far.
