The Morley 20/20 Wah Boost is Mark Tremonti's signature switchless wah, built to his specifications with an aggressive 20dB boost that activates together with the wah, so stepping on the treadle instantly readies a cutting solo tone. The pedal automatically shuts off when you take your foot off, courtesy of Morley's switchless electro-optical design with no pots to wear out and silent operation. The wah voice is tuned for hard rock and metal, with a strong, expressive sweep that pairs well with high gain, and the integrated boost helps leads punch through a dense mix. The 20/20 buffer circuit preserves tone, and the tank-like, glow-in-the-dark enclosure is gig-ready. It suits rock and metal players wanting an aggressive, solo-focused wah with built-in boost.
The Morley Wah is a line of optical, switchless wah pedals known for a wide, vocal sweep, a buffered all-electronic design with no scratchy potentiometer, and a rugged, road-ready build. Because it uses an optical sensor rather than a pot, it stays quiet and reliable, and many models switch on automatically when you step on the treadle. Its sweep is broad and expressive, favored by rock and metal players for both rhythmic funk and screaming lead wah, and Mark Tremonti is among its users. It runs well in front of high-gain amps and pairs naturally with aggressive rock tones, offering a bolder, wider voice than many traditional wahs.
