Description

Dunlop built the JP95-U as a signature wah pedal developed around John Petrucci's rack-mounted wah settings. It sat at the professional end of the Cry Baby line, designed for players requiring precise, repeatable tonal shaping rather than the fixed sweep of a standard wah.

The pedal provided Volume, Q, and six EQ controls, giving the operator detailed command over the wah's frequency character. The sweep ran from a heel-down low-pass filter centred between 200Hz and 240Hz up to a toe-down high-pass filter between 1.2KHz and 1.5KHz, with output gain figures of +19 dBV at heel and +33 dBV at toe. Input impedance measured 800KΩ and output impedance 5KΩ, with a noise floor below -94 dBV. Bypass was handled by a true hardwire configuration, leaving the signal path uncoloured when the effect was inactive. The unit drew 13mA at 9VDC.

Owners tracing a fault, sourcing a replacement potentiometer, or recalibrating the sweep range should consult a qualified guitar technician familiar with active wah circuitry.

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.

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.
