Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Electro-Harmonix Crying Tone is a compact wah pedal built with no moving parts, replacing the traditional mechanical potentiometer and rocking treadle mechanism with an angle-sensing design housed in a solid, contoured bottom plate. Rocking the sealed pedal back and forth on the floor produces a wah sweep with more range than a standard CryBaby-style wah, sitting tonally between vintage growl and modern clarity. Because there's no pot or moving treadle to wear out, the sweep stays smooth and consistent over years of use with no scratchy or intermittent contact. Alternate voicings, including cocked-wah and square-wave modes, are accessed via a calibration switch held in different pedal positions, though switching between them mid-performance is slower than a standard mode toggle. It suits blues and rock players who want authentic, wide-range wah sweep in a nearly indestructible, low-maintenance format rather than a traditional treadle-and-pot design.
The Morley 20/20 Power Wah Volume combines a classic wah and a smooth volume pedal in one compact, switchless enclosure from Morley's 20/20 series. Its wah is a mid-focused, vintage-flavored voice with no muddy bottom or shrill top, avoiding the honking, nasal character of some units in favor of the smooth, classic Morley sound. The volume function offers a pleasant, even taper from silence to full over a short treadle stroke, and a Wah Boost knob adds up to 20dB of clean boost to push the wah signal. Morley's electro-optical MQ2 inductor technology and 20/20 buffer circuit deliver pure tone, silent switching, and no tone loss or volume drop. It suits rock, blues, and funk players wanting a clean, dual-function wah and volume in a rugged, gig-ready unit.
