Jim Dunlop Dimebag Cry Baby From Hell Wah DB01B – The Ultimate Wah for the Ultimate Rig
The Most Versatile Wah in Dunlop's Lineup. Designed with Dimebag Darrell. Built for the Road.
Dimebag Darrell combined a cowboy's swagger with high-gain riffs and squealing pinch harmonic-laden leads. One of the most significant elements of his sound and dynamics was the Cry Baby Wah, and at a time when wah pedals had fallen out of fashion, Dime flew his wah flag high. Armed with his hard-earned expertise and insight from years of touring, he helped Dunlop devise the most versatile wah in their lineup: The Dime Cry Baby from Hell Wah.
A Wah Built for Players Who Need Options on Stage
Work on this pedal first began some 20 years ago when Dime, a long-time user of the super customizable Cry Baby 535Q Multi-Wah, wanted even more freedom when setting up his rig on stage. Starting with the 535Q, Dunlop carried over its Q control, 6-way range selector, and adjustable kick-in boost. Next, they hot-rodded it with a wide sweep range for Dime to dig deep and fly high, a control to adjust the pedal's toe-down frequency, an extra output for splitting your signal to a separate FX chain, and back-mounted LED indicators to conveniently show whether the wah is on and whether the boost is engaged. Finally, they replaced the standard rubber tread with skateboard skid tape so that your foot doesn't slip on any spilled beverages.
Extended Sweep Range and 6-Way Frequency Selector
The DB01B features an extended sweep range that lets you dig deep and fly high, delivering everything from guttural, throaty lows to screaming, cutting highs. The 6-way frequency selector gives you instant access to a wide variety of tonal options, from warm and vintage to aggressive and modern. Whether you're playing rhythm or lead, this wah adapts to your style and your rig.
Switchable Boost and Q Control
The adjustable kick-in boost lets you bump your signal to the front of the mix for solos and solos. The Q control shapes the response of the wah effect from a narrow bandpass that emphasizes higher end harmonics to a wide bandpass that emphasizes lower end harmonics. Together with the toe-down frequency control, you have complete command over your wah tone.
Extra Output for Splitting Your Signal
An extra output allows you to split your signal to a separate FX chain, giving you even more flexibility on stage. Run your wah to one amp and your dry signal to another, or send your signal to a separate chain of effects—the choice is yours.
Back-Mounted LEDs and Skateboard Skid Tape
Back-mounted LED indicators conveniently show whether the wah is on and whether the boost is engaged, so you can see your status at a glance on dark stages. The skateboard skid tape replaces the standard rubber tread, ensuring your foot doesn't slip on any spilled beverages—a thoughtful touch for the touring musician.
New Black Camo Finish
The Dime Cry Baby from Hell Wah is the ultimate wah pedal for your touring rig, and with its new black camo finish, it'll have you wearing a black-toothed grin in no time.
