The Zakk Wylde Signature Crybaby became an instant bestseller when it was launched in 2004. Thanks to its uniquely fat tone and robust construction, it is perfect for all fans of hard & heavy sounds, as well as for guitarists who tune their guitars lower. If you are looking for a sound that always remains fat and round and is not too sharp even in the toe-down position, but always vocal, full and clear, then this is the pedal for you! Now the pedal is finally available again!
The WA45 offers the sound that Zakk used for numerous iconic guitar solos ("No More Tears", "Losin' Your Mind", "Sold My Soul", "House Of Doom", "In This River", "Blood Is Thicker Than Water", "Farewell Ballad", etc.).
The frequency range was tailored to Zakk's unique fat lead sound and offers assertiveness with a consistently smooth, lowered sound character. Even riffs can be realized thanks to the extended low end.
Thanks to the red Fasel inductor coil, the wah always retains the classic full-bodied and pumping sweep that characterizes classic CryBaby pedals. This sound can be addictive!
And of course, the robust construction can withstand the tough touring life of metal's most relentless lead guitarist...The resistance of the pedal rocker can be adjusted using an Allen key supplied. The adjustment screw is located at the rear end of the pedal between the rocker and the chassis. The screw can be reached in the toe-down position, i.e. with the rocker facing forwards. By turning this screw clockwise, you can increase the resistance or, conversely, turn it anticlockwise to make the wah pedal lighter.
