Morley Wah question.

[stevie_bees]

I have a Morley Wah and I would like to fit an LED so that I know it's on. Does anybody know where I can get a schematic and values of LED's to carry this out? Thanks in advance.

Re: Morley Wah question.

I would start by sending Morley an email. They sent me replacement parts for free and seemed interested to help.I've heard others say they will always repair any product of theirs too.It's worth a shot....

Re: Morley Wah question.

Here are a couple of schematic links:
Morley PWV volume/wah
Morley PWA wah
Morley Bad Horsie wah
Morley Bad Horsie II

The PWV and PWA models contain a bypass switch that could be upgraded to a 3PDT (using the third set of contacts to switch on an LED). Wire like any TB pedal

The Bad Horsie series wah has some unused logic gates on chip U1 that could be used to detect and turn on an LED if tied to the used gates of that same chip.

Thanks guys, what other mods are available and what do they do? I would like to get a Morley that switches on when you step on it, because I've often left it on afterwards then wonder where all my top end has gone!! But I also like using my current Morley in a fixed pos'n too!

I use 2 wah pedals for this reason. I have a vox union jack wah, and a bah horsie wah. I use the vox for fixed position stuff, and the BH for screaming solos.
