    It depends on what you wish to spend:

    Bargain basement - Dunlop Crybaby GCB - 95( or 'original')

    Then a Vox, a bit more expensive, but I find it a better sound.

    But the king of wahs - the RMC wahs( The rmc 3 being the best)
    Any of these are super! They can be got from ebay, about 150-200 2nd hand(they can only be bought from a handful of online retailers, so 2nd hand is the only real option). They are super, all of them. Ive the rmc3 wah, which can replicate all the other rmc models( its adjustable), although they are harder to come by, but they are all good!

    There are loads of second hand Dunlop Crybaby pedals for sale if you look around.
    Pretty cheap, i say look at paying around 40-60eur for the Crybaby GCB-95 (original crybaby) depending on their condition.
    Don't pay more than €70 for one that looks new or is "as new". You can get a brand new one for around €90.

    The Dunlop Crybaby GCB-95 has that classic wah sound that everyone recognises. The one made famous by Jimi Hendrix, SRV, Eric Claption and the likes.
    So you really can't go wrong with that one.
    There's a few for sale at adverts.ie too if you wanna give it a look.
