Description
Immerse yourself in the soulful world of blues with the Dunlop JB95 Joe Bonamassa Signature Cry Baby Wah. This pedal has been meticulously crafted to reflect the fiery, deep, and powerful playing style of Joe Bonamassa, a titan in the blues genre. Whether you're a seasoned pro or an aspiring musician, this pedal will add a dynamic layer to your sound, enabling you to truly express yourself.
The JB95 is not just another Wah pedal. With its classy copper top and sleek, smooth-finish black body, it could easily win a beauty contest. But its real strength lies within. It features large, vintage-style thru-hole components, delivering a rich, full-bodied sound that's sure to impress. The Halo inductor adds harmonic content, giving your tone a vintage growl that harks back to the golden age of rock and roll.
The pedal also features an output buffer to prevent impedance imbalance when using vintage fuzz pedals. Plus, it offers the flexibility of true-bypass or non-true-bypass operation. Joe Bonamassa himself prefers the non-True Bypass mode as it subtly darkens the high end, adding depth to his iconic tone.
Key Features:
- Large vocal sweep range
- Vintage-style Halo inductor for added harmonic content
- Output buffer to prevent impedance imbalance with vintage fuzz pedals
- Switch for true bypass or non-true bypass operation
- Vintage-style thru-hole components
- Classy copper top with a sleek black body
- Lightweight aluminum housing for easy portability
- Modified vintage circuit to cater to any style of music

Dig it.
Very cool was pedal. Different than your normal whacka whacka box. If you own a Marshall Jubilee, this was pedal sits perfectly in that frequency spectrum and plays very nice with it.

I keep meaning to try one of these after seeing JD Simo's rig rundown. I am never happy with ANY modern wah pedals.....

It's super noisy if too close to a power supply! I did some homework on it, and it's definitely EMF radiation that is the culprit. I use a Voodoo Labs PedalPower 2+ on a PedalTrain and had to move the way to the furthest possible edge to avoid the noise! That or insert a 4" steel plate between the wah and PSU. Lol
Very cool wah though!

I barely use effects, so the wah would be next to a tuner and occasionally a battery powered treble booster. Even when I want to add a little flange or chorus I tend to use my HC30 through the ef86 channel and slap the modulation in the effects loop for extra throb and warble.... so I am pretty safe from electrical interference.
