Detail 01
Q (bandwidth) control
Narrow Q gives a sharper, more vocal quack; wide Q sounds smoother and more gradual across the sweep.

Dunlop535QC Chrome Cry Baby Wah Pedal
funkrock
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Chrome-housed wah with a switchable Q control and adjustable boost, aimed at players who want to dial in the sweep rather than take one fixed voice.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Funk and rhythm players who want a narrow, vocal sweep
- Rock leads needing a boosted, wide-open wah tone
- Players unhappy with the fixed voicing of a standard wah
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who want one sound and no knobs to set
- Small pedalboards — this is nearly 10 inches long
- Anyone on a tight budget; basic wahs cost far less
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Volume boost
Lets you push the wah louder than bypass, so solos jump forward instead of dropping in level when engaged.
Detail 03
9.84 inch length
A full-size treadle. Budget roughly ten inches of front-row pedalboard depth plus foot room to rock it.
Detail 04
3.79 lb chassis
Heavy enough to stay put on carpet or a bare stage floor without sliding when you dig in.
Detail 05
Chrome housing
Bright reflective finish shows fingerprints and scuffs from shoe soles more than a painted enclosure would.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Power supply and patch cables are not included — plan for both
- 02Set Q and boost once, then leave them; they are not foot-adjustable
- 03Chrome scuffs where your shoe contacts the treadle over time
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does it need a battery or an adapter?
It runs on standard pedal power. Neither a battery nor a power supply ships with it, so budget for a 9V adapter or a board supply output.
02What does the Q knob actually do?
It sets how wide a frequency band the wah sweeps. Tighter settings sound sharper and more vocal, wider settings sound smoother and less pronounced.
03Will it fit on a small pedalboard?
It is just under 10 inches deep and about 4 inches wide. On a compact board it will consume most of one row.
04Can I use it with bass?
It is a guitar wah. It will pass bass signal, but the sweep range is voiced for guitar frequencies, so low end response is limited.
