Jim Dunlop is offering up the magic of English musician Mick Ronson – best known for his work with David Bowie – with the brand new Dunlop Mick Ronson Signature Cry Baby pedal.
The Mick Ronson Signature Cry Baby pedal is modeled after Ronson’s own Cry Baby Wah pedal, an early Italian-made model that stands alone when it comes to tone. To capture all of the nuance of Ronson’s unique wah sound, Dunlop created a custom inductor that replicates the higher frequency response and subtler peak of the original pedal. There’s aso period-accurate low-gain transistors and value-matched resistors that contribute to a truly distinctive EQ curve.
“You place the wah, and leave it there, and that’s the tone,” said Bob Rock, who owned the pedal. “It’s all over every record he ever made, and I’ve used it on every record since I got it. Dunlop’s engineers spent the time and sent me the prototypes, and we nailed that sound.”
