Cry Baby® Mini 535Q Wah

The full size Cry Baby 535Q wah has been a go-to pedal of mine for years but too big for my board. Now the Mini version is small enough to fit on any pedal board!!

Nice but noisy

Regarding the controls for adapting the sound, there’s two dials to change the intensity and sweep range of the pedal, and another switch to change frequencies, I guess, like changing the position of the sweep. A fourth control for a boost, which I guess if you were using as a lead guitarist, and punching the pedal to boost above the other players would be handy. I’m just using primarily as an eq pedal, and secondly for the classic wah. I use the wah with a loop station and so the eq functionality lets me mix the sounds as they are being created. It’s Dunlop, so you know its bullet proof.

just as much a cry baby as big brother! only a little form factor just right for pedalboard

The sound is great and it seems to be durable. Being able to adjust the Q and the frequency range make this pedal very versatile. Also it feels very nice to use. I really like the small format. With shoes, the feel is very similar to a full-size wah. Without shoes, it's still easy to maneuver but I can't rock back and forth quite as fast as with shoes or with a full-size wah. For me, that's not a big deal, and the small form factor makes it totally worth it anyways. Another reviewer said it was noisy. That's not true. Chances are that any noise would be caused by a poor power supply or by the guitar itself. Since wah pedals emphasize particular frequencies, any noise at those frequencies will also be boosted. That's just how it goes. However there are two issues that are problematic for me. First is that although the volume is adjustable, there is no way to turn the volume down to 0; the volume knob is strictly for the boost circuit, and adjusts the volume from non-boosted to fully boosted. I really wanted to be able to turn the wah down to prevent my amp from distorting when using it. The other issue is that the LED indicates whether the boost circuit is on or off, not whether the wah is engaged. Kinda silly because you engage the boost switch with your hand, not your foot. Realistically, you'll be turning the boost on or off and leaving it that way, so you don't really need an indicator for that. By contrast, one of the most popular mods to wah pedals is adding an indicator LED so that you can't tell when they're engaged. Not sure why you'd include an indicator for the boost but not the overall wah.

Nice wah pedal, versatile, saves al lot of space in your pedalboard, the boost button is an addition, not giving 5 stars because no led to show if pedal is on or off, only led available is for the booster and its keeps on even if the pedal is off, u have to switch the led off by pressing the booster button. A bit pricey compared to the mini 95 but worth it. The pedal is well built, functions very well, good sounds. Highly recommend

This is the 3rd wah I've ever had, and second in the Dunlop Cry Baby line. I dig it! What I like the most, which I guess their regular mini does as well, is it takes up less than half the space of my previous full size wah. Sounds great too!

Props to Dunlop for the small form factor. Light weight and perfect size. Sounds great and is adjustable. One of the main reasons I bought this pedal was for the LED. Unfortunatley the LED is not an ON/OFF indicator. It's for some other feature? How hard is this to do? And how is it useful for some other feature, I'm just not sure?...

Love the choices in this mini wah, I use it on third and second position, the Q dialing is a bonus and the boost just simply amazing

Bonne pédale.

es un gran pedal de wah, y al ser pequeño ocupa menos espacio en tu pedalboard sin perder o sacrificar ese sonido caracteristico del Crya baby!!!

Cumple con todas las expectativas

Not what i wanted but maybe the one from hell will be a better buy dd vp rip
