Featuring internal Q and gain adjustments, true hardwire bypass, and stage-friendly LEDs, this pedal is engineered in the USA for professional-grade tone sculpting and durability that withstands the rigors of touring and studio work.

## Description

The MC404 CAE Wah was developed by Bob Bradshaw of Custom Audio Electronics and the Cry Baby design team with the goal of creating a highly versatile wah-wah of top-grade components. It features dual Fasel inductors with two distinct voices (high-end emphasis or low to mid resonance), and a built-in MXR MC401 Boost/LineDriver adds even more flexibility. Choose between inductors and turn the boost on or off with the side-mounted kickswitches; bright LEDs on each side of the wah indicate operation status. The MC404 boasts true hardwire bypass, a long-life CTS potentiometer, and internal pots for "Q" and gain adjustments.

Review: Spectacular - This is an spectacular wah. The finish is superb. It sounds awesome! I like that it has a built in boost with a knob to set how much boost you want, for me that is super convenient. Also it has 2 types of wah to choose from, I like the more Slashy one. And less to show how it's working as well if it is engaged. Built like a tank. Great value.
Review: Best wah I've ever used - I've used plenty of Dunlop's, Vox's and Line 6's wahs and the MC-404 is the best by quite some margin. I was between this and a Budda but after reading many reviews of people who once owned them switched to and loved this one, I was pretty much sold. The final nail in the coffin of the Budda for me was they are now manufactured in China I believe and since then, people have had considerably more trouble with them. Vox tends to be too vintage for my taste. Vintage is great in a lot of repects, however it tends to leave one without versatility. Line 6 while always affordable is way too digital sounding for me, but that is what they do after all. Crybabies are ok but to me have little character or versatility. This is something that has made me dislike any wah by them save some of their signature stuff. This wah is manufactured by Dunlop but was designed by Bob Bradshaw, which makes it more of a CAE than a Dunlop. Having the red and yellow settings is like having two wahs in one, both of which are awesome in their own respects. The red has a deep voice that is great, if a bit muddy. I find the yellow to be my favorite due to its funky, well balanced tone. The boost function is an excellent touch, adding a nice helping of overdrive which you can tailor to your sound without creating a bunch of nasty feedback. It also is still technically analog. Even though it has a great modern sound, it manages to do so without sounding digital. The only issue I have had with mine was the poor factory set up, which if you order things online, you are probably used to anyway...The rocker was stiff and sticky at first, so much so it knocked the whole internal mechanism out of place. This was quite scary at first but after opening it up and making a few adjustments and playing with the rocker, it operates and sounds incredibly smooth. I don't find the factory set up to have any bearing on the wah's performance, especially since I made its operation just as I wanted it without having to take it to a tech, so to me it has no effect on the overall score of the pedal itself. I love everything about this wah, from the tone, the ease of operation, right down to the LEDs. As the title states, this is the best I've ever used. If someone knows of a better one, please let me know. Happy wailing!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Wah. Period.
*by D***R on July 11, 2011*

They thought of all the problems associated with other wahs and went about solving them. The dual fasel is a fantastic idea and in conjunction with the internal trim pots you can really tailor it to your sound. They're not easily accessible but that's not an issue I don't know many people who micro adjust their settings per song. Wanna different taste? switch between fasels. The boost is a nice feature too however it was not a deal maker for me but it is useful and doesn't add very much noise at all. Red Fasel: Nice and creamy and very full sounding. Definitely my favourite. This is what you'd use when playing a bit of Hendrix Yellow Fasel: Very much the token Dunlop modern wah sound. Think GCB95-F or classic. Focused more towards the highs. The live version of No Quarter by Led Zep is my favourite song to play with this fasel. My biggest problem was that the Allen Key wrench wasn't supplied with my wah but that was solved when I emailed Dunlop for a replacement and the sent me one free of charge. The adjustable pedal was very important to me as I really don't like a sloppy pedal. I've owned the Dunlop Classic w/Fasel and a Bud-wah but I think my search for a wah has ended. Some of those extremely expensive boutiquey wahs may come close or even be a little better than this one however they most definitely won't beat the value of this wah. IMHO it is a wah that is underpriced, yes I can't believe I just said that, the build quality etc is just top notch. Highly recommended.
