If you’ve ever felt your Cry Baby doesn’t quite scream ‘Cry Baby’ enough, Dunlop has just the wah pedal for you, as it launches two special-edition versions of its Cry Baby Junior Wah.

Bigging up the company’s iconic ‘wave’ logo by sticking it on the tread and the side of the chassis, the special-edition model is available in two finishes, both with footwear-inspired treads: black with white wave logo and gum tread, and white with red wave logo and tread.

As per the original Cry Baby Junior, the pedals have been co-designed with Pedaltrain and, accordingly, keep pedalboard real estate in mind.

To that end, front-mounted input, output and power jacks are onboard, with a downsized 8”-length chassis that aligns real nice with Pedaltrain’s Metro, Classic, Novo, & Terra Series ’boards.
