A lot of people associate Clapton with playing blues leads without much in the way of effects pedals, but you only need to listen to Cream’s Disraeli Gears and Wheels of Fire to know that he was one of first and best wah-wah pedal players.
So, why have there only been 461 made? Because The number 461 pays tribute to Eric Clapton’s 1974 classic album, 461 Ocean Boulevard.

The Long Story
From The Yardbirds and Cream to an unparalleled solo odyssey, Eric Clapton’s masterful guitar playing has helped sculpt rock ‘n’ roll as we know it today. All along the way, he has used the wah pedal’s expressive power to deepen and amplify the dramatic resonance of key passages from some of his most iconic recordings.
In 1986, Mr. Clapton first started working with the late Jim Dunlop Sr., and he became one of our first and most important Cry Baby artists. We are honored that our company’s relationship with the legendary guitar player continues to this day. With this special limited edition Eric Clapton Cry Baby Wah, we’re paying tribute to Mr. Clapton’s 60-year legacy. Featuring the benchmark sound of the GCB95 Cry Baby Standard Wah, this pedal comes with a distinguished gold-plated casting befitting one of rock ’n’ roll’s living giants.
