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 Morley 20/20 Britt Lightning Wah is a signature switchless optical wah developed with guitarist Britt Lightning, voiced to her preferred tone and sweep in Morley's compact 20/20 format. It uses Morley's electro-optical design with no mechanical pots, engaging when you step on the glow-in-the-dark treadle and bypassing when you step off, for smooth, silent, wear-free operation. A 20dB Wah Boost lets players push the wah signal for cutting solos, and the 20/20 buffer circuit prevents tone loss or volume drop. The wah voice is tuned for expressive, musical rock sweeps that sit well under high gain. Built like a tank with glow-in-the-dark details for dark stages, it suits rock and hard rock players wanting a signature-voiced, switchless wah in a rugged, gig-ready enclosure.
The Morley 20/20 Bad Horsie is the compact, pedalboard-friendly reissue of Steve Vai's signature switchless wah, part of Morley's 50th-anniversary 20/20 line. It offers two modes: the signature Bad Horsie voice that captures Vai's famously wah-drenched lead sound, and a Contour Wah mode with dedicated Contour and Wah Level controls for tailoring the sweep from sharp and pronounced to subtle. Morley's electro-optical, switchless design engages when you step on the glow-in-the-dark treadle and snaps back off via a spring-loaded return when you step away, with no pots to wear out and silent operation. It has a massive sweep that loves high-output pickups and high-gain tones, suiting expressive rock and metal lead playing in a rugged, gig-ready unit.
