Morley MTTW Tone Questor WAH
Morley · pedal
The Morley 20/20 Tone Questor Wah is among the most flexible wahs in Morley's 20/20 series, adding adjustable tone-shaping controls that let players fine-tune the sweep and voicing to their style. It can move from a darker, funkier wah to a brighter, cutting lead voice, making it versatile across genres. Like the rest of the series, it uses Morley's electro-optical switchless design with no mechanical pots, a true tone buffer circuit that prevents tone loss, and silent optical switching for years of reliable performance, all in a compact, pedalboard-friendly enclosure. Built rugged with glow-in-the-dark details for dark stages, it suits players who want a single adjustable wah that can cover funk rhythm, classic rock, and cutting lead tones from one tweakable unit.
