BASIC OPERATION
POWER
The Justin Chancellor Cry Baby® Wah is powered
by one 9-volt battery (accessed via the bottom of
the pedal), the Dunlop ECB003 9-volt adapter, or
an MXR® Brick™ Series power supply.
DIRECTIONS
1. Run an instrument cable from your instrument
to the JCT95’s INSTRUMENT jack and another
instrument cable from the JCT95’s AMPLIFIER
jack into your amplifier’s input.
2. Start with all knobs set to 12 o’clock.
3. This pedal is bypassed (off) while your foot is
off the rocker. To engage the wah effect, simply
press the toe of the pedal down with your foot.
4. Use the WAH SELECT footswitch to toggle
between U.K. Filter mode (BLUE-lit controls)
or Wah mode (YELLOW-lit controls). The U.K.
Filter mode uses a custom solid-state circuit to
generate a thick, throaty effect with pronounced
peaks. The Wah mode uses the famous red
Fasel® Inductor for a bright, aggressive tone and
lush harmonics. In both modes, your clean signal
is boosted at 400Hz and blended in with the
effect at the very beginning of the rocker’s sweep.
5. Rotate the U.K. FILTER VOL knob or WAH VOL
knob clockwise to increase output volume level
of effect or counterclockwise to decrease it.
6. Rotate the U.K. FILTER Q knob or WAH Q
knob clockwise for a narrower bandpass or
counterclockwise for a wider bandpass.
8. Rotate the FUZZ knob clockwise to increase
fuzz gain or counterclockwise to decrease it.
9. Rotate the TONE knob clockwise for a warmer
fuzz sound or counterclockwise for a brighter
fuzz sound.
10. Rotate the VOL knob clockwise to increase
volume of fuzz effect or counterclockwise to
decrease it.
11. The FUZZ IND CTRL kickswitch allows you
to use the fuzz effect independently without
using the rocker. To do so, push the kickswitch
to its IN position (indicated by small red LED).
Toggle the fuzz effect on and off by using the
FUZZ SELECT footswitch as normal. To resume
operating the fuzz effect ONLY when the rocker
pedal is engaged, push the FUZZ IND CTRL
kickswitch to its OUT position.
12. To increase rocker effect ring-out time,
rotate external BYPASS DELAY knob with center
detent counterclockwise. To decrease effect
ring-out time, rotate the knob clockwise.
13. To install included optional Pedal Topper
(see FIGURE 1 on page 2), ensure that the small
rubber lining cup is fully inserted inside the
metal Pedal Topper head. Place Pedal Topper
head securely over the FUZZ SELECT footswitch.
Using the included hex key, insert the three
screws into the Pedal Topper head and rotate
clockwise until hand-tight. For an even larger,
more non-slip surface area, place the rubber
MXR® cover over the Pedal Topper head.
7. Depress the FUZZ SELECT footswitch to add
fuzz to the Wah or U.K. Filter signal when engaged
by the rocker pedal.
