Dunlop Akira Takasaki Signature Cry Baby Fuzz Wah Pedal

An Exploder of a Screaming Fuzz/Wah Pedal

From his speed-metal technicality to his expressive and emotive solo work, Akira Takasaki of Loudness has reigned as one of Japan’s premier shredders since the early ’80s. The Dunlop Akira Takasaki Signature Cry Baby Fuzz Wah pedal harness his 40-plus years of performing and recording experiences to craft, in Akira’s words, the “best rock wah pedal for live performances, simultaneously combining classic Cry Baby wah-wah with all-out fuzzy aggression. Moreover, this pedal sports a side-mounted low-frequency sweep to shape your sound to your liking, and there’s also a switch to engage/disengage the fuzz from the circuit. When testing out the Akira Takasaki Signature Cry Baby Fuzz Wah at AJ’s Music & The Music Man, one of our favorite features proved to be auto-return switching, a function that allows you to effortlessly swap between your dry and affected tone in the midst of a performance. A must-have pedal for Loudness lovers and fuzz/wah fans alike, the Dunlop Akira Takasaki Signature Cry Baby Fuzz Wah pedal is sure to transform even the mildest performance into the wildest of “Crazy Nights”!
