Description

Dunlop positioned the GCB95F-U Cry Baby Classic Wah as a variant of their long-running Cry Baby line, distinguishing it from the standard GCB95 through the inclusion of a Fasel inductor and true bypass switching — features associated with the vintage voice characteristic of the Classic designation.

The pedal was built around a Fasel inductor, which Dunlop credited with producing a vintage wah tone. True bypass switching ensured the signal passed unaltered through the circuit when the effect was disengaged. Operating on 9 volts DC, the unit drew 2.5 mA at bypass, presented an input impedance of 1 MΩ and an output impedance of 1 kΩ, and maintained a noise floor of -102 dBV.

Owners sourcing replacement inductors, pots, or switch components should verify part numbers against the specific PCB revision in their unit; a qualified guitar technician or electronics repair specialist can assist with component identification and any wiring or calibration work.

From the people who own them

Nothing in The Vault is for sale. These records exist so the instruments stay documented after the manufacturer moves on — and the most useful part of that record is what owners add to it.

Put yours on the record.

The catalog shot showed one finish, under one light, a long time ago. Yours has been played. Photos from owners are what the next person finds when they are trying to identify a part, match a finish, or work out whether the one they just bought is really what the seller said it was.

What do you know about this one?

Specs only go so far. What actually fits, what breaks first, what the factory got right and what everyone ends up changing — that lives with the people who own them, not in a datasheet. Post what you know and it stays on this page for whoever comes looking next.
