A wah pedal is at the top of my wishlist right now. I have been borrowing a crybaby from my friend and it sounds great, but I am wondering if I could get a similar effect with a cheaper wah pedal. Do you feel like the high price of a crybaby is worth it, or do they all sound the same?

Yeah, it's worth spending decent coin on a wah, more than other pedals, imo. They take a lot of wear and tear, and the cheaper ones tend to use less durable parts. A case of "buy once cry once. "

Good point, it is of course a pedal you regularly put your bodyweight on.
