The Morley 20/20 Power Distortion Wah pairs a sweeping wah with a built-in distortion circuit in a compact, pedalboard-friendly enclosure from Morley's 50th-anniversary 20/20 series. It uses Morley's signature electro-optical, switchless design, engaging when you step on the glow-in-the-dark treadle and bypassing when you step off, with no pots to wear out and silent, pop-free operation. The wah and distortion can be used together for thick, aggressive, vocal lead tones or the distortion can run on its own as a dirt box. With a wide frequency sweep and true tone buffer circuitry, it delivers expressive, cutting wah tones for rock and metal lead work. Built like a tank with glow-in-the-dark details, it suits players wanting combined drive and wah in one rugged, gig-ready unit.
The Morley 20/20 Classic Switchless Wah delivers the traditional Morley wah sound in a compact, pedalboard-friendly enclosure. Its voice is clear, wide, and modern, with a full-frequency sweep that avoids the nasal shrillness of some vintage units and works beautifully with both clean and distorted tones. The sweep is smooth and slightly less pronounced than a typical Dunlop, giving a more rounded high end that rolls musically through its range. It relies on Morley's MQ2 inductor and dependable electro-optical circuitry, so there are no scratchy pots, plus switchless activation and the 20/20 buffer circuit that prevents tone loss. American-made and built like a tank, it suits rock, blues, and funk players wanting a smooth, toneful, no-fuss classic wah with no tone suck.
