Morley Tye Trujillo TruDrive Wah Pedal Chrome and Blue

The Morley Tye Trujillo TruDrive Wah pedal brings together classic wah tones and gritty overdrive in a single, stage-ready unit designed in collaboration with bassist Tye Trujillo of OTTTO and Suicidal Tendencies. This pedal is perfect for guitarists and bassists who want to add controlled wah sweeps and bold drive to their signal chain. The wah section runs on Morley's optical, switchless design—just step on to engage, step off to bypass—eliminating scratchy pots and moving parts. A built-in drive circuit gives every wah sound an extra edge, while the Wah Mix knob lets players decide how much effect to blend into the dry tone. The overdrive side features independent controls for drive, tone and level, making it easy to dial in anything from a touch of grit to a growling, full-throttle sound. Finished in racing blue, this pedal stands out on crowded boards and handles rugged use on stage or in the studio. Switchless Optical Wah Adds Instant Response The Morley wah circuit uses a switchless design based on their optical sensor system. Instead of relying on a mechanical switch or a traditional potentiometer, the optical system tracks foot movement for a smooth sweep without noise or wear. Engaging the effect only requires stepping down on the treadle, while lifting foot returns the pedal to bypass—no clicks, no lag. This system gives immediate response for expressive playing and lasting reliability, gig after gig. Integrated Drive Circuit Delivers Extra Bite The built-in drive section runs at all times when the wah is active, adding more presence and a bit of grit to signal. A dedicated drive channel offers independent level, tone and drive controls, letting users shape the amount of distortion and adjust the character of the overdrive. With this design, players can set a low growl for rhythm or push the drive harder for aggressive leads, all without stacking extra pedals in the chain. Wah Mix and Control Lat Simplify Sound Shaping The Wah Mix knob blends the effect and dry signal, letting users adjust from subtle filter sweeps to full wah saturation. The drive, tone and level knobs are set apart for quick changes during a set. LED indicators confirm the pedal's status at a glance, and the compact size fits easily on crowded boards. The unit's buffered circuit helps keep guitar or bass tone clear, even with long cable runs or complex setups. Rugged Steel Construction Withstands Heavy Use The TruDrive's housing is crafted from cold-rolled steel, built for real-world abuse and heavy stomping. The chrome treadle features a diamond plate grip for secure footing. All connections and moving parts are reinforced for long-term performance, and the pedal runs on a 9V battery or standard 9V power supply (sold separately). LED indicators add visibility on dark stages, and the finish resists scratches and dings. Signature Morley Pedal Built for Biting Wah Tone The Morley Tye Trujillo TruDrive Wah pedal is a stellar rig addition for players who want hands-free wah control and a punchy, expressive drive in one box. Guitarists and bassists can move from clean passages to gritty leads, switching effects by stepping on or off the treadle. The optical design and Wah Mix control allow for nuanced sound shaping, while the rugged build stands up to the demands of a jam-packed touring and practice schedule. The result is a pedal that responds instantly, adds bite and keeps pace with dynamic playing styles.
