Dunlop IM95 Crybaby Iron Maiden Killers Wah

The Dunlop IM95 Crybaby Iron Maiden Killers Wah is a limited edition wah pedal built on the standard Cry Baby circuit and finished in artwork from Iron Maiden's second album, Killers. Dunlop unveiled it at NAMM in January 2026, and it sits in the maker's signature artist wah line alongside models for Slash, Kirk Hammett, Dimebag Darrell and Jerry Cantrell¹.

What it is and what it does

The IM95 is a redressed Cry Baby Standard: the same circuit as the GCB95, with the Killers-era Eddie emblazoned across the top. Gearnews called it "a collector's edition stompbox that pays homage to the band's gritty East London roots" and noted that "the pedal utilizes the legendary GCB95 Cry Baby Standard circuitry, delivering the same expressive, bold sweep"¹. Guitar Pedal X described it as "using the Killers album artwork for an Eddie-liveried signature CryBaby"².

For a player, that means the IM95 behaves exactly like a standard full-size Cry Baby: a rocker pedal you rock forward and back with your foot to sweep a bandpass filter across your guitar's frequencies, from a dark, bassy heel-down position to a bright, nasal toe-down one. If you know the GCB95, you know this pedal's sound and feel; the difference is the finish. Guitar Pedal X confirmed it is "a full size Wah"²¹, so it takes the same footprint on a board as any standard Cry Baby, not a mini format like the Cry Baby Mini.

Dunlop's own manual for the pedal, titled "IM95K IRON MAIDEN KILLERS CRY BABY® WAH", lists the Dunlop ECB003 9-volt adapter as its power supply³. Dunlop's artist page for Iron Maiden also carries the pedal under the same IM95K name⁴.

Limited edition status and price

Gearnews reported the IM95 as a limited edition when Dunlop announced it on 22 January 2026, timed with NAMM after weeks of social media teasing, and said it was available at Thomann¹. Guitar Pedal X, reporting from the show, said "The Killers CryBaby Wah is widely available now"².

Reported pricing, January 2026:

Readers comparing the two published reports should treat the amounts below as unverified until a maker's figure is available¹⁵.

Both figures date from January 2026.

Where it sits in the Cry Baby line

The IM95 is one of Dunlop's artist signature wahs, a line that puts a player's or band's identity on the standard Cry Baby platform. Gearnews framed it as joining "an elite 'clan' of Dunlop artists, including Slash, Kirk Hammett, Dimebag Darrell, and Jerry Cantrell"¹. Those players' models, like the Kirk Hammett Cry Baby, the Dimebag and the Jerry Cantrell Cry Baby, often add circuit changes; the Killers edition does not, staying with the GCB95 circuit and changing the artwork.

How the IM95 differs from other artist Cry Babys:

• Circuit: GCB95 Cry Baby Standard circuitry, unchanged from the standard pedal¹
• Artwork: Killers album art with the Eddie livery on the top¹²
• Format: full-size rocker pedal, not a mini or junior chassis²³
• Status: limited edition release¹

The Cry Baby name itself is the reference point for the effect: as the technical analysis site Guitar FX Layouts put it, "When people talk about wah-wah pedals, they're talking about the Cry Baby Wahs"⁶. Dunlop's manual confirms the ECB003 9-volt adapter as the pedal's power source³.
