I have a Dunlop Cry Baby GCB95 (Standard model) Rev C. I'm not satisfied with it. It distorts the highs and sharpen it to much. The sweep is not in my taste. I have removed the in buffer, made it true bypass. Any one who knows a good Wha schematics that has a smooth old school Wha sound.
The only bad sounding stomp box is an unbuilt stomp box. ;-)

Best I ever had was a Coloursound - how I rue the day in '76 I leant that to someone.....

From the clip I heard, the EH Queen Triggered Wah sounded Great, bit complex though.

For Bass: my FX-17... after modding it to LP and tweaking a couple things, it makes my bass say "WOW!"... sounds more like the MS-20 than a Morely Op Amp circiut now.

For guitar, probably my drummer's GCB-95. He's had it since the mid 90's, so I know it's at least that old... and it was pawn shop buy. No new solder, just stock, as far as I know. The center hump is just in that nice balance point, and it feels good. It sounds nice, too. Has a black inductor with a yellow wrapping over the windings and a bolt through the center of it, I assume instead of a clip like the halo inductors.
Give a man Fuzz, and he'll jam for a day... teach a man how to make a Fuzz and he'll never jam again!
