Dunlop Manufacturing presents another member of the Cry Baby product line,
the MC404 CAE Wah developed in conjunction with Bob Bradshaw of Custom
Audio Electronics. For over 30 years, Mr. Bradshaw has been designing
elaborate guitar rigs for some of the biggest names in the business. Bob
himself relates what special modifications he would do to wah pedals to work
for these guitar heroes and how in the MC404 these mods are available to
everybody.
Dunlop Senior Engineer Bob Cedro further explains the features of the
pedal in detail and gives some sound samples.

-2 switchable Fasel inductors for different tonalities
-Up to 18db boost circuit ( from the CAE MC401 pedal)
-Internal "Q" controls
