Morley Cliff Burton Tribute Power Wah Fuzz Wah & Fuzz Pedal Overview

The Morley Power Wah Fuzz is a tribute reissue of the classic wah/fuzz pedal associated with Cliff Burton’s bass solo tone. Designed for expressive sweep and aggressive fuzz, it combines a wah circuit with a fuzz voice inspired by the original “ripped speaker” character.

Modern updates focus on fast, stage-ready operation with Morley Switchless Activation—step onto the treadle to engage and step off to bypass—plus a sweep that starts at the lower end. A 15 dB level control on the wah circuit helps boost presence for solos without changing your core rig.

Built around Morley’s electro-optical design (no pots to wear out), this pedal is made for reliable performance across guitar, bass, and keys. A distressed chrome finish and glow-in-the-dark treadle details support quick visual orientation on dark stages.
