Owner Insights

We analyzed real musician discussions from forums and Reddit to find what players love, question, and tweak about Morley PWF Power Wah Fuzz (Tel-Ray).

Build quality

  • The Morley PWF uses a #387 filament bulb for its light, prone to burning out and requiring replacement, contrasting with modern pedals using LEDs.

    Source

Features and functionality

  • The PWF's treadle offers a unique clean blend control in the fuzz circuit, unlike the CBR, allowing for dynamic fuzz intensity changes during play.

    Source
  • The Cliff Burton reissue reportedly has a vintage/modern switch, allowing users to toggle between different tonal characteristics.

    Source

Setup and maintenance

  • The original PWF requires a 120v AC power supply, making it less convenient for international use without step-down converters compared to modern 9v DC pedals.

    Source

User experience

  • Owners describe the PWF's wah circuit as having a full-spectrum sweep from 25-4500Hz, with a long treadle travel for precise control.

    Source
  • Users appreciate the PWF's ability to maintain consistent volume while offering tonal diversity through the guitar's volume control.

    Source

Comparisons

  • The Cliff Burton Reissue reduces the PWF’s original footprint by over 20%, offering a more compact size while maintaining similar tonal characteristics.

    Source
  • The fuzz in the original PWF is likened to a muff-style fuzz with more sustain and compression, adding aggressive tones with a slightly dirty amp.

    Source

Use cases and applications

  • The PWF excels in delivering rock 'n' roll tones, particularly when used with a slightly dirty amp, highlighting its versatility for aggressive styles.

What kind of amps do you use in your setup?

The entire system is divided into three different parts - high, mid, and low. But we're not just talking about amplification, we're talking about the effects in each part. On my highs I use a Big Muff fuzz, a Mu-tron III [envelope-following filter], an MXR digital delay, a Morley Fuzz/Wah, a Morley Power Wah, and an Eventide Harmonizer. The Harmonizer sits in a case that looks like R2D2 from Star Wars. It looks just like a little robot, so I call it R2FunkU. There's a sign hanging on it that says, "Can I Play?" Inside of it, there's also a keyboard for the Harmonizer that enables me to preset harmonized intervals to what I'm playing. That way I can play a note and have a fifth or a third coming out at the same time.

All of that equipment just for the highs?

Right. For the mids, I have a Big Muff fuzz, a Mu-tron III, and an MXR digital delay. On the lows, I use a Mu-tron Octave Divider, two Roland Space Echos, a Big Muff fuzz, and a Mu-tron III. I keep all my effects in one box called the Space Case. The highs and mids each have an Alembic preamp, two Crown DC-300A amps, and four Cerwin-Vega speaker cabinets.

What's in each cabinet?

The cabinets used for the highs are called V-32s. They have two 12s, one midrange horn, and two tweeters. The midrange cabinets are basically the same, except there's one 15" speaker instead of two 12s. Those are called V-34s. On the bottom end are three Acoustic 370 heads and six Cerwin-Vega cabinets. Two have one 18" speaker and one 12", two more have an 18 and a 10, and two have one 18" and an 8.

Isn't that a lot of equipment for onstage?

I don't play it that loud. I've just got it there so that I don't have to strain the equipment and everybody can hear. As a matter of fact, the whole stage is set up like that. The guitar player, the keyboard player, everybody is set up like that so there is no real strain.
