Huge flexible sound in a box!
25 years ago, I started with the CB095 version and then moved into the CAE version 10 years ago. Now to save space and being able to switch into different response types, I decided to test this little guy. I must say that my hopes were really bellow the bar. I use a very complex setup with different pre-amps and true-bypass switchable effect chains. This guy just fit as you would expect for a vintage or edgy stile. After testing the three coil options, I went for the Classic and decided to modify the different chains to respond accorded to input. I have to confess that at the beginning the small size tricked me many times into stepping and waving into different ways that did not worked out the typical chunk-nose... but, it was only a matter of understanding the new adaptation of your foot stepping on it. Tip: try not to balance the pedal with your heal, specially if you come from big wahs, but to use your foot’s arc. The true bypass kept the kick coming from different pickups (single, humbucker and over-wound humbucker), and the coil response was as you should expect from the original vintage pot master back in the funk days. Of course, this is a keeper and a must for lack of space... best choice ever!

Love it!
Maybe not for everybody, but here are the PROs of this little Wah I' ve found
1, it fits small pedalboards and gig bag pocket easily :-)
2, internal switch allows you to choose between 3 Wah types (you will love at least one of the 3, they are all very usable)
3, the pedal enclosure made from metal (as sturdy as big CB)
4, you can operate it with battery (even the Wah mechanism and PCB needs some space, you can operate it battery)
5, you can easily adjust the toughness of the Wah pedal with the screw
6, it' s lightweight (remember the weight of original CB?)
CONS
1, it feels somehow wackier than my heavy original CB from 70' s
2, hopefully will not need repairment in the future, since it's SMT technology inside
3, why is this more expensive than original CB?:-)

half the size, same quality
Just as good as it's bigger counterpart, sounds great, easy to use, and it's small size can make handling generally a lot easier, if your looking for a high quality wah this is not an option to overlook.

Does what it's expected to perfectly
Saves me space on my pedalboard and it's just as easy to control as its big brother, took me like 10 minutes to get used to it. The internal switch is a great feature, gives you more tonal options!

my first wah wah
i have played guitar for around 3 years now and i was always impressed by the wah wah sound so i wanted to try it myslef.
i bougth this wah pedal because it was small and i read the reviews and wasnt quite sure if i want to get it, but i just thought to my self " why not give it a try". so i did and my and my friends love it. and it looks so adorable.
so if you have a fairly small pedal board (or non at all like me) this pedal would be a really good choice for you.

Dunlop CBM95 CryBaby Mini Wah
So pleased with this mini wah pedal which I have been using with my band on Jamulus. I had the larger pedal before but this one will be so much better to put in the guitar bag along with cables etc as it is small and lightweight and is equally as good as the larger version. I would definitely recommend it. As far as I am concerned I can't think of any Cons to talk of. Many thanks to Thomann for posting so fast as it arrived before Christmas. Also I was able to track its every move.

Weird at first but Damn!
At first it looks and feels weird because of the size, I purchased this Mini wah because I used a Standard size CryBaby before and really satisfied with the functionality and sound. It's just a matter of getting used to the size on my foot. Sound quality is amazing especially with the 3 different sound settings that you can chose from. Over all I am very happy to have this on my Mini pedal board.

Great CryBaby in a small format
I was building a small pedal board and I needed a small wah to fit the board. I first bought the hotone soul press but after a month of use the pot was faulty so I returned it.
I then bought the CryBaby Mini Wah and it sounds and feels lot better. Obviously the small size makes the pedal a bit harder to use compared to a full size wah, but it's not a problem.
Other things I like is the flat base which makes using a velcro strip to attach to a pedal board. It has a 3 position voicing switch which is good, shame it's on the inside though. All in all it's the best mini wah out there.

Great sound, 3 wahs in one, small footprint
The small footprint doesn't affect playability at all because the pivot point is in the same place as the big ones, thay just "cut" the front part which is redundant.
Perfect sound, love the low and high setting, only miss a led, but that's nothing.

Great pedal board wah pedal
Has great sound and is not hindered by its smaller form factor. Only annoying thing is that the switches to change the style of sound are being a screw so not very easily accessible. Other than that, great pedal.
