Wampler Paisley Drive
Another excellent pedal by Wampler, and Brad Paisley’s signature overdrive. Info about the original: Since late 2009, we discovered that Brad Paisley was using Wampler Pedals. He started with the AnalogEcho, then got an Ego Compressor and then had the Underdog overdrive. Everything was great until his tech at the time, Chad, mentioned to Brian … Read more
Wampler Triple Wreck
Request. I’ve done the main board and booster separately so that you could potentially put the main board in a 1590B or preferably a 125B (5 pots and a switch are totally do-able in a 125B). If you’re more sane than that and want to put this in a 1590BB then you can build the … Read more
Wampler Black 65

When Brian decided that he was … Read more

Use the Ecstacy’s two band EQ (high and low), Smooth/Open/Crunch switch, … Read more
Wampler Pinnacle
Many thanks to Equinox for supplying his traced PCB layout for us to create the schematic and layout from. This is based on the current version which I think was first released in 2011. Info about Brian’s fantastic original: Zeke Clark, Edward Van Halen’s longtime renowned guitar tech played through a pinnacle and this is … Read more
Wampler Tweed ’57
Info about the original: The Wampler Tweed 57 is the heart and soul of a mids 50s Fender Tweed amp. Just think Eric Clapton playing Layla: that tiny Fender pushed to the absolute limit for that crunchy yet 100% Fender tone. We all know that when you need a pedal that nails the sound of … Read more
Wampler Plexi-Drive
In the words of the maker Brian Wampler, this was designed to sound “sort of like a cross between a “Marshall 18®” and a “JTM45®”, and those who have purchased the Plexi-Drive agree that it’s very accurate! The bass boost toggle switch adds fat, full bottom end which is very useful in lower gain or … Read more
