Preamps and Effects / Morley Classic Wah Qestions
November 19, 2011, 06:49:21 PM
I have a Morley classic wah pedal i bought for 25$ US at a pawn shop and have been using it now for a year. I have noticed that it doesnt quiet have the "Wah" i guess im looking for. The wah doesnt start until the pedal is about 1/2 way down. Is it possible the optical sensor is dirty? There is only a on/off switch and the footboard.
Is there a way for me to Fix this so it will have more oomph and to note: Im running this first in my chain right after my boss tu2 pedal. Ive used this with a peavey vyper 15 and my Peavey A260 SS with same results.
To specifically describe what i belive is the problem it does not have the volume Ive heard from other Wahs weather i use a fresh 9volt or a 9volt power supply.

Thoughts Ideas?,

WAH NOOB..lol

The Newcomer's Forum / Booster pedal for peavey 260?
October 11, 2010, 04:01:50 PM
on my 260 i see it has 6 inputs 2 for clean channel 2 for distortion channel. It also has a booster input and another input near the power on light. What are these for and why doesnt a FS5U pedal switchthe channels from clean to the distortion channel.

someone at Guitar Center suggested bridging both channels with balanced speaker cable (running the #1 input from the clean side to the #1 input on the dirty side). what will this do? The booster input doesnt do anything when I runa FS5U to it and neither does the other input. is ther a special footswitch peavey made for this head? Its dam near older than me... :lmao:

I love my peavey260 guitar amp and i think it deserves a nice custom built 4x12 cab. It saw 400 watts on the back and I understand that this may be peak output but it is also saying it is 4 ohms. I searched this site a little b4 i decided to post this but what im trying to do may not have been done here for this amp. I recently refurbed this monster with some detoxic spray and resoldered all loose connections and put a new power cord on it. She breathed back into life like i never imagined. I cant complain about the distortion because i always selct a good tone from clean and then run my pedals to it. Even at unity and a good eq pedal she competes with the lead players marshall neck and neck. I have a project im doing and i need some specific info in laymans terms that i couldnt quite understand elsewhere. Im building a 412 cab for a peavey 260 guitar head and need to know what celstion speakers to use and since its 4 ohms as marked on the back of the cab, how do I achieve the best output without damaging the head or sacrificing sound. now most would say go buy a brand name cab and be done ....i say nay im a diy guy. I needto know if series or parralell would bebest in wiring this project. Any help would be appreciated.
