GCB95F
(Cry Baby
Classic Wah):
There’s no doubt about it—the
GCB95F brings the Cry Baby into the
21st century. What makes that claim
so? Is it that it neatly mixes old and
new, or that it’s a faithful recreation of
the original 1970 Cry Baby but with the
added boon of true bypass circuitry?
Check all of the above because this is
the cat’s pajamas of Cry Baby pedals.
The “F” in GCB95F stands for Fasel.
While the original Italian-made Fasel
inductors were all the rave back in
the day, they disappeared for a while.
Dunlop has brought the Fasel back
in the GCB95F. At the time of this
writing, Dunlop is putting the red
Fasel inductor in all of the pedals in
its standard line (but onenever knows
when this is subject to change.) While
the GCB95F doesn’t technically hold
the monopoly on the Fasel inductor for
the time being, it is still a really great
pedal in its own right.
