Dunlop Manufacturing presents another member of the Cry Baby product line,
the MC404 CAE Wah developed in conjunction with Bob Bradshaw of Custom
Audio Electronics. For over 30 years, Mr. Bradshaw has been designing
elaborate guitar rigs for some of the biggest names in the business. Bob
himself relates what special modifications he would do to wah pedals to work
for these guitar heroes and how in the MC404 these mods are available to
everybody.
Dunlop Senior Engineer Bob Cedro further explains the features of the
pedal in detail and gives some sound samples.

The MC404 features :
-2 switchable Fasel inductors for different tonalities
-Up to 18db boost circuit ( from the CAE MC401 pedal)
-Internal "Q" controls
-Status LED lights
-Long life CTS potentiometer
-True Hardwire Bypass
-Custom paint finish and CAE graphics

  • Hey look it's j mascis' pedal board at the beginning

  • BEST wha EVER!

  • @Urnimin it's* ;-)

  • Hmmm... I opened mine up to see if I could play with the Q controls a bit (I had no idea about that until I saw this video). Unfortunately there's a blob of glue over both of them so I can't change the Q control. Oh well... still an awesome pedal!

  • @TheMetalhead804 You're is you are...

  • @Corliss1998 then get a vox big bad wah

  • The side buttons aren't very convenient for a pedal board

  • great sounding and looking wah, got one myself a couple months ago, best of the bunch i think...just enough tweekabilty but not over the top so i freak out with option anxiety. I lost the manual didn't know about the internal controls till i saw this, might mess around em.

  • what is the song in the began?

  • @TheMetalhead804 Well you complained about his spelling and then you went and spelled heroes wrong, and there is nothing wrong with my spelling, its all correct.
