A bass wah crafted from the Cry Baby heritage
The Cry Baby Bass Mini follows the lineage of Cry Baby wah-wahs, with an approach specifically adapted to bass frequencies. While a guitar wah can sometimes hollow out the low end and lose the foundation, this version is designed to retain a present low end while sculpting the upper part of the signal to highlight attacks, harmonics, and bite. The idea is simple: to regain the musicality and expressiveness of a "classic" wah, but with a more coherent response on both 4-string and 5-string basses.
Another advantage is its place in the lineup: it carries the spirit of the popular 105Q, while adopting a reduced size (about half as large) and a lighter aluminum casing. The result: the same type of bass wah feel, with a footprint much easier to integrate daily.
For which bassists and styles?
This wah is aimed at bassists who want to add expressive and immediate control to their playing without complicating their effects chain. It suits both intermediate and advanced musicians: just plug it in, adjust intensity and volume, and quickly achieve very musical sweep effects.
In terms of styles, the Cry Baby Bass Mini excels in funk and groove (slap lines, pops, syncopated riffs), rock to thicken leads or add movement to a theme, and metal for more aggressive solo passages and very "speaking" breaks. In the studio, it helps bring out a line without increasing overall volume, and live it adds extra presence whenever you need to cut through the mix.

Questions frequently asked
What power supply is required for the Dunlop Crybaby Mini Bass CBM105Q?
The required power supply is 9 V DC, and no power adapter is included. The audio connections use 6.35 mm jacks for input and output.
Does the Cry Baby Bass Mini take up little space on a pedalboard?
Its compact size, about half the size of the 105Q, and its aluminum casing make it easy to fit among other pedals.
Does this wah preserve the low end of a 5-string bass?
The circuit is designed to maintain a strong low-end presence on 4 or 5-string basses. The sweep emphasizes attacks and harmonics in the upper frequency range. This response suits funk riffs, rock, or metal solo passages.
Is the CBM105Q true bypass?
The bypass is electronic and not true bypass, a configuration intended to preserve signal clarity within certain long cable chains.
What controls are available on this bass wah?
Two controls are offered: intensity adjusts the sweep character, while volume balances the output level or provides a slight boost.
