Voiced to deliver Jerry’s fierce, vocal-like wah sound, this Cry Baby serves up a tight, punchy heel-down tone and a focused, cutting top end that can be fine-tuned via a rugged side-mounted control. Whether you are channelling Alice in Chains riffs or carving out your own heavy, expressive lines, this pedal gives you the articulation and aggression needed to slice through any mix.

Channel Jerry Cantrell’s Signature Wah Voice

At the heart of the I Want Blood Cry Baby is a carefully tuned wah circuit that nails Jerry Cantrell’s unmistakable sweep and attitude. The heel-down position stays tight and punchy, perfect for dark, brooding riffs and muted rhythms, while the toe-down position delivers a snarling, vocal-like peak that is ideal for searing leads and expressive phrasing. It is a ready-made route into one of rock’s most iconic wah tones.

Fine-Tune Your Top-End Bite

A robust side-control knob lets you dial in the exact toe-down frequency that works for your guitar, amp and playing style. From a sharper, more aggressive peak to a slightly rounder, more musical top end, you can tailor the wah’s high-frequency focus so it always sits perfectly in the band mix. Once set, it stays out of the way, leaving you free to play without constant tweaking.

Bold I Want Blood Aesthetic

Finished in a striking black and red colour scheme, this Cry Baby stands out on any pedalboard. The custom-moulded tread takes direct inspiration from the I Want Blood album cover, giving you a unique, tactile surface underfoot. Flip the pedal over and you will find the full lyrics to the title track on the bottom plate, making this a genuine collector’s piece for fans of Jerry Cantrell and Alice in Chains.

Built for the Stage

With hardwire bypass, low current draw and classic Cry Baby construction, the Jerry Cantrell I Want Blood Wah is designed to take the punishment of regular gigging. The rugged enclosure and side-mounted control are built to last, while the familiar Cry Baby footprint ensures it drops straight onto your board without fuss, ready to go night after night.
