Joe Bonamassa CryBaby JB95 : A solid, useful wah

9 years ago

This must be one of the most unique looking wah pedals available. In terms of sound, it does what you'd expect, but nothing too far outside of the ordinary.

I bought this particular wah as I'd heard it was well-voiced for humbuckers, and I wanted to use it with a Les Paul. Other wahs tend to sound better with single coil pickups, so I was curious to hear the difference. I think it does have a slight edge with humbuckers, but the difference is subtle and likely pretty subjective.

There's a price premium to getting this pedal over many CryBabys, but not a huge one (and there are more expensive ones.) Considering its suitability and great appearance, I'd say it was worth it, and can recommend this pedal.
