The Dunlop IM95K Iron Maiden Killers Cry Baby Wah is a signature wah pedal finished in the artwork of Iron Maiden's Killers album, with the band's mascot Eddie applied to the treadle. Guitar Pedal X, reporting its unveiling at NAMM 2026, described it as "using the Killers album artwork for an Eddie-liveried signature CryBaby", and confirmed it is a full-size wah rather than a compact model1. Dunlop lists it at $229.992.
Controls and connections
The IM95K keeps the classic Cry Baby layout: one treadle, one switch. Guitar Pedal X noted that "the actual CryBaby variant is rather stripped back - there are no additional surface controls"1, so there are no knobs for range, boost or volume as on some other signature models. Dunlop's manual explains the on/off function: "To turn the pedal on/off, push the top of the pedal down until you hear a 'Click'."3
Hooking it up follows the standard wah pattern:
- Run a cable from your guitar to the pedal's INSTRUMENT jack3.
- Run another cable from the AMPLIFIER jack to your amplifier3.
- Power it with the Dunlop ECB003 9-volt adapter or an MXR Brick Series power supply3.
Specifications
Dunlop's manual gives these figures for the IM95K3:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Input impedance | 800 kΩ |
| Output impedance | <10 kΩ |
| Maximum level, toe down | +10 dBV |
| Maximum gain, heel down | +19.5 dB |
| Signal to noise, toe down, A-weighted | 89 dBV |
The manual's specification table shows conflicting values for maximum level, maximum gain and signal to noise, and the conflict is unresolved. The figures above are the ones stated for the toe-down and heel-down positions; a second set of values appears in the same document.
Price and availability
Dunlop's Iron Maiden artist page lists the IM95K at $229.992. Guitar Pedal X, writing at the pedal's January 2026 unveiling, reported that "it goes for $230 in the USA" and "£239 at Andertons in the UK"1. The same report said the pedal was "widely available now"1.
What reviewers said
Guitar Pedal X's Stefan Karlsson gave the pedal a mixed practical verdict, writing: "I would have liked a Killers Wah as a Mini Edition. I'm very unlikely to use a full-size one, so it would be a wasted ac"1. His review concerns the pedal's size rather than its sound.
Players who want a smaller footprint in the same family can compare the Dunlop Cry Baby Mini, while the standard non-signature version is the Dunlop Cry Baby GCB-95.
Questions
What is the input impedance of the IM95K?
Dunlop's manual lists the input impedance at 800 kΩ, with an output impedance of less than 10 kΩ. Those figures describe how the pedal loads the guitar's pickups and drives what follows it on the board, and they come straight from the maker's own documentation for the pedal.
Does the IM95K have any knobs or switches?
No. Guitar Pedal X described the pedal as rather stripped back, with no additional surface controls. The only control is the treadle itself, which rocks the wah sweep, and pressing the top of the pedal down until it clicks turns the effect on and off.
How much does the IM95K cost in the US and UK?
Jim Dunlop's artist page lists the IM95K at $229.99. Guitar Pedal X reported the same figure as roughly $230 in the USA at the pedal's January 2026 unveiling, alongside a UK price of £239 at Andertons.
Is the IM95K a full-size or mini wah?
It is a full-size wah pedal. Guitar Pedal X's NAMM 2026 report states plainly that the Killers Cry Baby Wah is a full size Wah, and the reviewer noted he would have preferred a Mini Edition for practicality.
What artwork is on the IM95K?
The pedal carries the artwork from Iron Maiden's Killers album, applied as an Eddie-liveried finish on a signature Cry Baby. Dunlop's own 2026 new gear announcement describes it as a collector's edition Cry Baby Standard Wah with finish and tread inspired by the album.
