Clifford Lee Burton is regarded as one of the greatest Bass players of all time. He transformed the instrument and left an incredible legacy. One of the secret weapons to his tone arsenal was a Morley Power Wah Fuzz. Cliff’s use of a Wah Pedal for Bass solos was revolutionary. The Power Wah Fuzz had a Wah Sweep like no other Wah Wah Pedal at the time and it’s Optical Circuitry also gave it a unique flavor that contributed to Cliff’s thunderous sound. Morley has reissued this classic pedal as a tribute to the one and only Cliff Burton.

When compared to the original version the Power Wah Fuzz delivers it’s iconic tone, but with modern improvements. Most notably, it’s now equipped with Morley’s famous Switchless Activation. Just step on the treadle to activate and step off to Bypass. You also start at the more desirable lower end of the Sweep. It also sports a Distressed Chrome finish mimicking the battle worn pedal Cliff used. The Wah Circuit has a 15db Level control perfect for pushing your signal above the mix for earth shattering solos. It also sports Morley’s Glow-in-the-Dark treadle and toe sticker that not only look great but help you find your pedal on the darkest of stages and uses standard 9v power.

Wah & Filter Pedals

Wah and filter pedals emphasise or remove a moving part of the frequency spectrum. A treadle wah sweeps a resonant peak through the signal, while auto-wah, envelope and fixed filters use playing level, an LFO or a set frequency to create vocal, synth-like or cocked-wah textures. Q, sweep range, input loading, bypass type and placement all affect the response. Before gain, the filter determines which frequencies clip; after gain, it shapes the finished distortion. Check whether the circuit expects a direct guitar signal and whether the switch is mechanical, soft-touch or optically controlled.

Bass

Designed or voiced to retain low-frequency information and headroom with bass guitar or other low-register sources. Controls may centre on clean blend, low-end EQ, compression or drive.

Fuzz

Pushes a signal into intentionally non-linear clipping, often with strong sustain, compression and harmonic roughness. Fuzz circuits vary widely, from gated splutter to broad, woolly or octave-rich sounds.
