Pedalboard-friendly Lock Wah
Want a modern optical wah, but still want to nail those cocked-wah tones? Then you’ll appreciate the Morley 20/20 Wah Lock. This wah-wah pedal eschews scratchy pots for a whisper-quiet switch-less design, and packs it into a pedalboard-friendly version that’s a fraction of the size of Morley’s classic-sized pedals. Standard and Whoa modes achieve everything from subtle texturizing to full-on vocal-like effects, while Wah Lock mode enables you to use the pedal as an adjustable filter. And if you want your wah-drenched solos to rise above the fray, the 20/20 Wah Lock will do it, courtesy of its built-in 20dB boost. Numerous guitarists express their love of Morley’s electro-optical design, and this effect pedal’s switch-less operation makes it child's play to activate — just step on the glow-in-the-dark treadle to engage and step off to bypass. What’s more, its premium buffer circuit prevents signal loss and maintains your tone. The 20/20 Wah Lock pedal features a rugged cold-rolled steel housing, dual LED indicators, and quick-clip battery door.
Morley’s 20/20 series — the start of a new era
Morley’s 20/20 series marks a complete revamping of the company’s line of pedals. The most obvious distinction of these pedals is their size. Unlike many of Morley’s classic beasts, the 20/20 series includes some of the most pedalboard-friendly boxes out there. You also get a premium buffer circuit that safeguards against signal degradation — a must if you’re rocking a long pedal chain. These pedals eschew outmoded gears and potentiometers for Morley’s world-famous optical circuitry, which makes them quiet and near bulletproof. Morley’s 20/20 pedals are so durable, in fact, that the company offers a lifetime warranty on them! All 20/20 pedals feature glow-in-the-dark treadles and LED indicators.
