CBM95 CryBaby Mini Wah : Good sound and surprisingly comfortable

8 years ago

I bought this for my small, apartment-sized practice rig but was positively surprised by the good construction quality of the Mini Cry Baby. The sounds you get are comparable to the full sized Cry Baby but this particular pedal comes with an internal voicing switch, giving it a bit more flexibility. The switch requires the back cover to be removed however, so it's more of a long term (instead of live) setting change.

Regarding its size, it is quite comfortable and yields the whole frequency scoop when used correctly (something like the heel at the bottom end). I wear shoe size US 11/EUR 45 and have no problems with it.

Like the regular Cry Baby it sounds good with and without distortion and pairs well with other effects (True Bypass).

I would definitely recommend it for home/practice setups, but possibly also for playing live if you don't mind not having much control other than the modulation pedal itself. It is very sturdy and compared to its full-size counterpart, not very heavy.
