Dunlop Jimi Hendrix 70th Anniversary Tribute Series Cry Baby Wah Pedal

This November marks the 70th birthday of Jimi Hendrix. To celebrate his legacy, Dunlop® is set to release a limited edition line of four Jimi Hendrix 70th Anniversary Tribute Series effects. Each effect in the series was crucial to Jimi’s signal chain, both live and in the studio. They include the Jimi Hendrix™ Fuzz Face®, the Octavio®, the Univibe® and the Jimi Hendrix™ Signature Cry Baby®. Loyal to the old school tone of the originals, each of these meticulously crafted pedals features modern appointments such as bright on/off LEDs, true bypass switching, and 9-volt power jacks. The Fuzz Face, Octavio, and Univibe also sport small Phase 90-style enclosures that are adorned with colorful graphics inspired by legendary rock artist John Van Hamersveld’s famous psychedelic poster from Hendrix’s 1968 Shrine Auditorium concert. Dunlop is the guardian of classic analog tone and the exclusive home of Jimi Hendrix signature pedals.

Jimi Hendrix 70th Anniversary Tribute Series Cry Baby

Whether it was the understated soul of “Up From the Skies,” the dirty funk of “Little Miss Lover,” or the interplanetary exploits of “Voodoo Child (Slight Return),” Jimi Hendrix relied on the wah to deliver a stunning array of tones. The Jimi Hendrix™ 70th Anniversary Tribute Series Cry Baby® is crafted to deliver the same dynamic tonal sweep of Jimi’s original Italian-made Thomas Organ unit while also offering a 9-volt power jack, a limited edition gloss black finish and a tread bearing iconic Hendrix art from legendary rock artist John Van Hamersveld. By carefully emulating the throaty midrange and sweet treble response of the original, the 70th Anniversary Tribute Series Cry Baby provides a crucial sonic link to the Hendrix mojo.
