Fully Modified Dunlop GCB-95 Plus with Joe Gagan Smooth Pot
All of our modified pedals are warrantied as new! 
 

Wah'z happening?
 You just have to have a wah for some variety. Here is what you get with ours:
 *True Bypass! Does a wah pedal affect your chain of sound when you turn it off? Is it a tonesucker? Unless it has true bypass, the answer is an emphatic YES! These pedals are notorious tone suckers. Normally when the wah is not on but still plugged into your amp or pedal chain, your guitar's signal still has to pass through the circuitry. This robs tone quality...especially the high frequency range. True bypass eliminates tone sucking! We replaced the old foot switch with a new 3PDT. This lets us rewire in a way that allows the sound to travel around the circuitry. When you are switched off of the wah effect, your guitar's signal will now go into the input of your wah and straight out the output jack to your amp, or next effect pedal.

Once this was done, we added a little magic!
 *Sweep Mod- Adds better EQ to the the sweep, makes it sound a little less thin and "trebly".
 *Vocal Mod- Adds more vocal quality. Makes it sound like it wants to talk! *Volume Boost Mod- Did you ever notice… the volume level drops a little when you click on a wah effect? Not any more! This mod brings up the volume level of the wah to match the volume level of your clean sound.
 *Gain and Bass Response Mod- Adds a little gain and bass to the wah. Sounds nice for mellow sounds, but also crank up your amp and add some dirt for a touch of growl!  
*Midrange Mod- Increases the mids and helps to smooth out the response between the bass and treble.
 *Volume Pedal Mod- A push button switch is installed. With a push of a button you can use your wah as a volume pedal! When you rock the pedal all the way back, the volume is very low. This is usually covered up by a band. Just rock the pedal forward for swells or just to set your overall volume level.  Push the button again and you are in wah mode again.
*In the video you will see a toggle switch installed for this function. We replaced that with the more popular easy push button switch a while back :)
 *LED Mod- "Is this thing on?" The stock GCB-95 does not come with a check LED, but we added a water/clear blue LED. The LED is clear when off, a nice noticeable blue when on.
What about the Plus?
This one comes with a Joe Gagan smooth potentiometer (normally $35). Most wah pots are Dynamic...that is they have a shorter sweep and the action goes from treble to bass in a very short span. That's great for guitar players playing fast leads. But some folks prefer a more gradual sweep. That's what this pot does :)
I also replaced the inductor with a Dunlop Red Toroidal inductor. This inductor helps by giving the pedal a little more well defined highs and lows.

The video clip is very clean. It's one of our earlier modified pedals with the stock pot and inductor. Since then we started using the easy push button switch for the volume pedal mod instead of the toggle switch. Use your headphones!

Reviews:
Mike,
 "I’m loving the mods to my Crybaby! It’s awesome; the voicing has such a cool vocal quality and the cocked sound is awesome with fuzz. Thanks so much! Best, John W."

“The wah is awesome! Loving it already and haven’t even hooked into my cabinet with my band! Just played through a little crate practice amp but I can tell a big difference! Thanks again, the wah is wicked!”

"Hi Mike,
I wanted to thank you for doing such a good job on my Vox Wah pedal. I appreciate the extra effort you put into helping me get a sound that I like.
I will be spreading your name around those who are looking for someone who does good quality work. Someone like you. Thanks again.
I hope you will come hear us sometime.
In Christ, Karl"


"Hey Mike!
  I am very happy with my fully modded crybaby GCB95!!! It has helped shape my sound immensely since I got it back from you...Myself and my band mates are asking how I did without this thing except on 1 or 2 songs before!!! I use it at least a little bit on nearly every song we play...whether it be for a ripping solo or as a volume/gain pedal when I need it...love it man!"


"Awesome Product. Incredible Tone. Happy customer here."
 

"DUUUDE!  
I got it. And it's awesome. Everything works brilliantly. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

David got one of our Cry Baby mods and also one of our MXR Dyna Comp mods: "Mike, the pedals are AMAZING. They both sound fantastic. Great job! Thanks again. Dave"

9:00 from Michel: "Hi Mike, I got the cry baby today one word WOW!!!!! A happy customer!" 9:30pm from Michel: "This thing Sings!!!" 9:45pm from Michel: "This thing Screams!!! Wow Michel… I hope your neighbors are cool! 

You got a wah? Send it to Modest Mike!” .

"Great pedal, nice sound & features!"

“Received my wah GCB-95 back today, thanks so much!! Exactly the fat classic sound I was looking for!! Will be doing more business with you soon!!!!” Steve V. Wait a minute...Steve V? It couldn't be...could it?

"This pedal is insanely unique! It's become a staple on my board. I'll be back! ()

From Thomas: "Got the pedal today!!!! Right on man!!!! Thanks again Mike!"

"This is now the best wah that I have ever owned - thank you so much - I love the way it sounds!"

"Got the wah last night! Ripped open the box, plugged it up. YOU DID AN EXCELLENT JOB! I myself, have been a AV bench tech for over 30 yrs. You not only have good ears, but it also takes good technical knowledge of filters EQ's, gain,  attenuation etc. to. I'll refret a Strat or a Les Paul before i'll tear into a pedal. I may get a schematic if it doesn't work. Again great work!

PS. Sent a few more pic's. One, is my PA cabinets I built after I completed them, 1 1/2 yrs. ago. Since I added 2 more mids and 2 subs, and has 10KW in the gas tank! The other, is my guitar rig at a show I did in Louisville, with Danny Johnson of Steppenwolf." Jerry

"Dude you are the man!! The wah is great has never sounded so good! Had that wah since high school and it broke my heart when it failed. I will send the chorus and other wah next. By the way the metal pedal KICKS ASS no more hiss like the old days. Much cleaner sound." Robby

"Hey Mike,
Got my Cry Baby in the mail today and just wanted to say that it sounds fantastic. I've had a few wah's over the years and I can see this one sticking around for a long time. Can't wait to show it to the fellas. Thanks buddy. Mark" "Hey Mike----The Wah sounds fantastic! Rob"

From Russia:
"Hello Mike!
I received pedal today. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. It's a great pedal, really true wah ;)
Nick"

"Hey Mike:
I got a chance to REALLY give the new wah a test drive today ... WOW! That thing is freakin' incredible!
I've never played through a wah with anywhere near the range of that pedal. And it's almost TOO quick!
It will take some getting used to, but the amount of voicing heard for just 1/4" of travel is as much as MANY of the pedals I've played for the full throw.
And, most importantly, it sounds fantastic. It's so near a talk box I could probably make it sound like that, with enough practice.
Thanks again - great work!" Mike

"Impeccable work Mike! Thank you! A winning Clyde McCoy is in the house! Bravo!"
Chris

“Mike, the Crybaby Wah sounds amazing!!! It's exactly what I envisioned when I sent you the pedal to mod! Thank you sir!! And if anyone needs a pedal modded I will definitely recommend you! 

"Hi Mike,
I can't thank you enough for the fabulous job you did on my Cry Baby wah pedal. The mods are fantastic and the pedal works like a charm. In addition, I would like to thank you for going above and beyond by fixing and rewiring the battery issue! You are a class act. I will definitely be recommending you to my friends here in the New York metropolitan area.
Thanks again, Mike...I look forward to doing business with you in the future.
Jim"

"The absolute best sounding wah I've ever heard! After 2 days of testing I can honestly say this was an excellent purchase. This is the epitome of wah sound, where it should always have been. You do great work brother. I'll write you a stellar review for your page if you'd like."
You just wrote a stellar review. Thanks Charles!

From Dave: "Hi Mike, I just wanted to say thanx for the fantastic job you did on the Rat and the Cry Baby. I love the way the Rat sounds and the Wah /Volume mod is amazing!" 

“Hey there Mike, I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the Mod you performed on my old Dunlop Wah. Awesome stuff! First off, the pedal sounds fantastic. Functionally perfect as well. Secondly though and more importantly, the customer service you provide takes a back seat to no one.

"Great communication, super fast turn-around, extras thrown in.......I couldn't be more satisfied!  This won't be the last time you hear from me. Rock on! Jack"

"We make your sounds... sound good!"


Thanks for looking!
Mike
