Yes, I have several patches stored.

I don't have an additional footswitch, there are combinations of the foot-buttons that allow you to switch banks and stuff. Very easy to use.

The wah wont make you throw away your Cry-Baby, but its perfect for the few times I use it. The expression pedal by default is a volume pedal, and I became reliable on that.

The ability to store different delay and modulation settings are the reason I couldn't be without it.

does your Morley Bad Horsie 2 Wah have the contour mode too? and does it have the switchless design too?


Yes, it has the countour, but I never use it. I supposed it's usuable, but I just like the straight non-countour tone. It's switchless with, for me, is a blessing. On a buddah or a crybaby, I end up not hitting that toe switch right, and either don't turn it on when i need it, or don't shut it off at the right time. The switchless is perfect. There's a half second lag time for it to shut off, but it's never been a problem with me, and you can tweak that with some internal switch if you want - though I never have.

I also like it because it's really good with clean AND high-gain tones. The buddah, to me, is wonderful for low to mid gains, but I don't like it's tone on high gain.

I've tried many wahs and had a few custom made ones, but this is the one I pick for what I need it for.

There is a pedal board thread that can be found through a search. Sorry I don't have the URL off the top of my head.

Some pedals have unique plugs, but most will work off the "typical" boss style sold in the 1-spot. I do have a pedal that required an adapter, but check the wattage and you should be fine.

Please learn from my mistakes:

You pedal line-up will most likely evolve so
don't drill holes for "specific" pedals.

Buy a good isolated power supply.

There is no reason not to be able to make it 'on the cheap.'

I took a shelf for the main board, some shelf liner, and took a long "cubed stick" and cut pieces for the legs, and a rim along the bottom of the board to keep stuff from falling off.

All of it was just laying around the house, and I've had it for about 3-4 years.

Yep, that's the 1-spot, and its the one I have and works just fine. Hell, mow a couple lawns and you'll have it by the weekend.

I tried the 6 AA batteries in the ME-20 and it lasted a few hours...
