Cry Baby 105q

G'day,

Opened it up today, just to have a peek. Looks like there are 3 adjustable trimpots in there:

2 round white ones in the top right corner
1 round white one a little left of the middle in the bottom part of the picture.

Searched a few threads, but haven't found anything on their use. Any clue ?

Also, the lit and web page don't mention mA draw. Does someone how many mA this thing eats ?

Thx.

The trimmer at the bottom adjusts the delay time between you taking your foot off the wah and the wah shifting to bypass. The top two are not meant to be adjusted.

As far as mA draw it's not high, I can tell you that.

Thx.

Continued searching even after posting the thread. By entering "internal adjustments" in the search engine (as opposed to pedal name and variations), just found out what you said. Seems the 2 smaller ones at the top are voltage related. Explains why one of'em has some kind of glue drop on it.

Great pedal, should have bougth this a long time ago. Tried a Morley (dual ?) Bass wah last year and hated it, but this thing works for me.

Yeah, I've owned a couple of the Morleys. I hated them too. I like the Dunlop much better, but I like my custom bass wah from Wilson Effects even better.

Been reading a lot of good comments on the Wilson wahs. Looked for one in my area, would've loved to give one a shot.


But I'm a-gonna really like the 105Q... I get the same vibe playing it that with the SansAmp PBDDI... here to stay, I guess, contrary to my other pedals...oh well.
