The Story Behind the Alex Lifeson Lerxst Blah Blah Wah Wah Pedal

Alex Lifeson and Lerxst, in collaboration with innovative pedal designers Morley, announce the newest addition to the Lerxst line of guitar effects pedals – the Lerxst Blah Blah. Inspired by Lifeson’s singular use of wah and his never ending tone journey for new and innovative sounds, the Blah Blah is one of the most unique pedals ever designed and offers a bold new world of both classic and avante-garde wah sounds all available at the touch of a foot pedal.

In this video we cover how the Lerxst Blah Blah pedal came to be and how it was derived from Morley's vintage Pik-A-Wah circuit.

Alex is really turning into quite the gear pimp this year. 😅

Interesting that there's no wah in the background music. As much as I love Fly By Night there are more appropriate songs that could've been featured. Plus it would've been great the actually hear the pedal in action.

The BLAH BLAH pedal. LOL Let the music do the talking. :)

What is the reason for the constant growling noise when it is engaged. It’s very distracting.

I still don't understand what it does exactly, or how the blah blah comes into play. I'll run right out and buy a signature pedal from a (hilarious but) retired musician, based on the strength of all the recordings and performances he's done with it.

MORLEY, Your engineers messed up because the original PKW Pik-A-Wah was able to use the wah pedal to SET the RATE of the pitch from low to high. Also they have a Sweep RANGE controls. You left out all the good stuff for the new Blah Blah 2.0 version needs to add in a lot of the original controls by next namm 2025

I’ll stick with my Dunlop. I feel like I’ve given Lerxst enough money at this point. Take your wah and blah blah blah some music and I’ll buy that.
