Dunlop JCT95 Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah Effects Pedal Blue

Description

The Dunlop JCT95 Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah effects pedal is a multi-tool of sonic craftsmanship, combining three separate effects into a single pedal. Augment your sound with the fluid expressiveness of a custom midrange filter, the bright aggression of a custom wah circuit and the chainsaw grind of a vintage fuzz.

Its the perfect complement to bass player Justin Chancellors multi-dimensional role in the band Tool. Whether opening up soundscapes with chords and harmonics, or syncing up with guitarist Adam Jones to perform arresting single-note unison runs, Chancellor goes above and beyond the traditional boundaries of his instrument to help compose the bands multi-layered tunes. He is one of the modern pioneers of effects on bass, and he keeps a carefully configured pedalboard at his disposal for crafting tones and exploring sounds. This custom JCT95 Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah combines some of his favorite ways to do just thatfilter, wah and fuzz.
Two Different Voices: U.K. Filter and Cry Baby Wah
The Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah effects pedal features U.K. Filter and Wah modes, two tone-warpingly distinct variations on a theme.

The U.K. Filter mode uses a custom solid-state circuit designed to emulate the unique envelope-like filtering of the tone control on Chancellors own instrumentthick and throaty with very pronounced peaks. This mode absolutely nails his melodic, voice-like phrasing from the Tool track The Patient. When combined with the built-in fuzz mode, the U.K. Filter generates incredibly smooth tones.

If you prefer a more traditional wah sound, the Wah mode employs the classic red Fasel Inductor and the circuitry of a modified Cry Baby Wah for a more aggressive sound and brilliantly lush harmonics. Combined with the built-in fuzz circuit, the Wah mode cuts through with electric fire.
Shape Your Voice, Hold Down the Low End
Customize each mode with separate Volume and Q controls, and move between the two at any time by stomping on the Wah Select footswitch. In both modes, this pedals custom circuitry maintains the thickness and heft of your low end by boosting your clean signal at 400Hz and blending it with the effect signal at the beginning of the rockers sweep.
Vintage Fuzz
This pedal features Chancellors go-to fuzz, based on a ferocious device of vintage U.K. origin. It cuts through the mix with a tighter focus than most fuzzes of its type while retaining much of a bass signals thunderous heft. Think Chancellors monstrous tones on portions of the Tool track “Jambi.”

By default, youll only hear the fuzz when using the rocker pedalit gives the U.K. Filter and Wah modes just the right amount of harmonic content to grab hold of for the crushing yet musical passages that JustinChancellor is known for. Want to use the fuzz by itself? Just kick the switch on the side, and itll run independently. Combine U.K. Filter or Wah modes with the fuzz, or use them separatelythe choice is yours. Chancellor uses the U.K. Filter mode by itself, and he likes to combine the Wah mode with the fuzz; he can engage the effect with a single motion thanks to the optional Dunlop Pedal Topper, which provides a larger surface area for your foot to make contact with.

Emulate Chancellors tried-and-true formula for killer sounds, or experiment with all the different configurations available to unlock the hard-rocking and soundscaping potential of your own rig. In all scenarios, the JCT95 Justin Chancellor Cry Baby Wah effects pedal is a powerful resource for the tonecrafting bass player.
