The Morley Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

Remember those giant chrome Tel-Ray Morleys from the 70s? So do a lot of our fans, and after years of folks asking us to revisit some of those designs, now is the time! The original Tel-Ray Volume Boost combined an optical Volume (no pots to wear out or get scratchy) and a foot-selectable boost circuit that can give you up to 40db of boost. Be loud and proud!

To save room on your pedal board, we made the Volume Boost much smaller than the original Tel-Ray version. To pay homage to the 70’s Tel-Ray Morley pedals, we decked it out in a chrome base and treadle, increased the pedal base height so it sticks up above the other pedals on your pedal board and added a vintage style knob on the Wah Boost and other visual details to give it that 70’s vibe. Groovy man!

Then, we added a few cool features like a glow-in-the-dark treadle grip so you can always find your pedal on a dark stage, an LED indication so you know what is on or off and designed to power up from a 9V adapter. We recommend the use of a Truetone One Spot adapter.

If you’re a fan of the 70’s Tel-Ray Morley pedals and our current lineup, this is the best of both worlds. Plus it is the first of a group of Tel-Ray Revival Series pedals coming down the pipeline. Buy a Morley. And Step On it!

Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

Boost

Boost pedals give your signal that extra push — perfect for cutting through the mix or driving your amp into sweet natural overdrive. Whether you want a clean volume lift for solos or a touch of grit to wake up your tone, a good boost adds clarity, punch, and presence without changing your core sound. Simple, powerful, and essential on any board, a boost pedal can turn a good tone into a great one with just one stomp.

Pedal

Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.

Reissue

Reissue models are modern recreations of classic instruments or equipment based on original vintage designs. They are built to capture the sound, look, and feel of earlier models while benefiting from contemporary manufacturing and reliability.

Reissues appeal to players who want authentic vintage character without the cost, maintenance, or rarity of original examples. They are commonly produced with period-correct specifications, materials, and finishes, making them a practical way to access classic tones and designs.

Volume

Volume controls the overall output level of a signal, determining how loud the sound is sent to an amplifier, speaker, or audio system. It affects the final signal level without directly changing the tonal character of the sound.

In guitar and audio equipment, volume is used to balance levels between instruments, pedals, and channels, and to control dynamics in live and recording environments. Adjusting volume can also influence how other components respond, particularly in analogue circuits where level affects feel and interaction.
