Dunlop Dimebag Darrell “Cry Baby From Hell” Wah Pedal

Dimebag Darrell of Pantera needs no introduction — he is one of the most talented and popular metal axemen to ever walk this planet. Thanks to its eye-catching camouflage finish and unique “CFH” logo (modeled after the “Cowboys From Hell” tattoo the guitarist sports on his shoulder), the Dimebag Darrell Signature Crybaby From Hell is as instantly recognizable as its creator.

“It’s basically what I’d call a hot-rodded Wah,” Dimebag explained. “It’s pretty tricked out-it’s got an extended sweep so you can get it to go more high-endy sounding [pedal down] and deeper [pedal up] too; a 5-way selector on the side so you can pick what frequency you’re gonna play within; a kick-in boost; the LED indicators [Wah on/off, Boost on/off] at the back of the pedal instead of at the front so you can see them from the back of the stage; and it’s got skateboard skid-tape on it instead of rubber so when you’ve got beer on your feet you won’t slip off it. One other little trick it’s got happening is an extra output jack on the left-hand-side of the pedal so you can go in and out of the CFH on just that side if you want. That way, if you’re just using the Wah you don’t have to loop a chord around the top of the thing so it’s less likely to get stuck-up under the pedal. I’m real proud of the CFH, man,” Dime concludes. “It sounds bad-assed and it looks bad-assed too — it’s ready for war.”
