I have a Cry Baby (original) wah as the first pedal in my chain. The next pedal is a Death by Audio Fuzz War, followed by a Boss Blues driver overdrive. When I click on the Wah, does absolutely nothing if the Fuzz war is on, but it works perfectly fine with the Blues Driver if I bypass the Fuzz war. Anyone have any ideas why this would be?

I have a fuzz war clone and I run a cry baby mini after it. I think it sounds awesome but it depends what you want. I recall having the same issue as you which is why it's in that order.

I did try another wah when my original full size cry baby broke but it was even worse! That was a Morley lead/boost model I think, which just sounded shit with the noisy pedals I have.

I'm also running another couple of fuzzy things earlier than the fuzz war.. I think if I put the cry baby first it probably wouldn't work at all. Tbh all those pedals affect each other a crazy amount. I love the fuzz war sound but it's a pretty extreme effect as you'd expect from DBA.

Good luck with your experiments!
