With great power comes great compactability.
Costing the same price as its older brother, the mini bass wah proves to be just as powerful. I was inspired to buy one after trying to master Mr Geezer Butler's bass solo in N.I.B., and couldn't get the normal sized one as the music shop ran out of them, so I settled for the mini version. It was a blessing in disguise because I immediately fell in love with it's small size. It's got a really nice colour too. I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking to experiment with funky and psychedelic dissonance.
i'll do a full review later
first, and probably only complaint, is that the velcro that i use does not stick to the rubber underside of the crybaby bass mini. all my pedals use this velcro and the velcro sticks too well.
