  • Brian's work on the Wampler Pedals Black '65 left him grinning. Finally, after months and months of work, he'd nailed it. A pedal that can conjure a whole realm of classic tones with a few turns of the EQ knobs; a pedal that works equally well as a dedicated overdrive inspired by great, vintage Fender® amps, or as a "preamp" or "tone shaper" that, when put at the end of your signal chain, just before your amp with the gain set low, can make any pedal before it sound and respond like you're running it through whichever favorite amp of the time period you dial it in for. A genuinely passion-driven homage to some of history's greatest amps! Yet that accomplishment couldn't be the end. History, after all, goes farther back than 1965, and so does the story of great tone.
    Brian Wampler is a confirmed tone fiend. He has to be, to make the kind of excellent sounding and great playing pedals Wampler Pedals is known for. He knew that his work on the Black '65 would need to be followed up by another pedal to make the classic Fender® amplifier inspired Wampler Pedals family whole. When you go back in time, past the era that inspired the sound of the Black '65, you find yourself in the land of tweed, where raw, driven sounds offered guitarists new possibilities that they had never heard before, sounds that have found their way onto historic recordings. Creating a pedal that could do for the tweed amps of the mid to late 1950s what the Black '65 does for its amps would not be an easy process, but Brian has never shied away from a challenge!
    Enter the Tweed '57, a pedal inspired by historic Fender® amps and their magic tone, a pedal which offers a wide palette of sounds and includes several features that you've come to expect from Wampler Pedals as well as some surprises Brian's cooked up just for this pedal! With a full three-band EQ voiced carefully to let you get a wide range of tones from your amp, the Tweed '57 is not limited to trying to achieve one particular sound. And thanks to the fantastic "Input Simulator" switch, you've got flexibility and control just as you'd expect on an amp from that period, with Normal, Bright, and Linked input options that cooperate with the EQ and gain adjustments to give you control that is easy to use and rewarding to play with. The pedal's dynamic response is extraordinary, and the overdriven tone is amazing.
    Play the Wampler Pedals Tweed '57 and you'll understand exactly what inspired Brian to create this pedal, with a sound so characteristic and raw. Worked to perfection for his setup and yours, we bet after you experience this pedal's historic rhythm and timeless, leaping-off-the-frets lead, you'll be grinning, too. ‎

    Just another average killer video, Shane... I'm getting one of these now!

    Great job demoing this pedal! I actually picked this beast up after watching your video. So far I am really happy with the pedal; I love the variety of sounds I can get out of it.

    I own a tweed Deluxe and play both Fenders and Gibsons through it. IMHO, this
    pedal does great justice to the sound of that amp, especially with the three modes of
    normal, bright, and linked. This just as the amps were built to do, although I'd bet
    someone discovered running the two channels together by accident some 60 years
    ago or so. I think this pedal has more treble than the actual tweeds and because it
    is an effect, it does more things than a straight amp sound. It sounds great, though.
    Really good demo, too.

    It would have been great if you might have demoed this pedal with a non-fender amp, or an EL-84 like amp. If you can get the tweed sound out of that configuration then you've got a pedal that delivers. My two cents.

    One of my favorite guitar pedals; simulates that Fender Bassman sound well

    @hawg427 10 лет назад +3

    It really does sound like a Fender in a small box :-) The man knows how to build pedals. Great playing. Maybe next time use the pedal on a non Fender amp to see how it really converts the amp into a Fender.

    Hmm, just not doin it for me. I'd love to hear it AB'd against the real thing or something like a modern day equal. Maybe my memory is going but I don't rem them sounding at all like this way back. Your playing is mighty fine though.

    Do you have a treble bleed on that strat?

  • @Casey_J96
    @Casey_J96 9 лет назад +1

    hey man I was wondering what your opinion was with this pedal vs the boss 59 bassman pedal? I saw you demoed both and I love wampler's but is it really worth twice the Boss tone wise? I know build quality will be different obviously.

    • @CoffeeDrinker71
      @CoffeeDrinker71 9 лет назад +1

      CJSchecter96 Although I don't own either of the pedals you asked about, I can hear a huge difference in most of the demo videos in favor of the Wampler version. I think you nailed another important factor too. Would you rather give your hard earned dollars to FMIC who builds their pedals in China/Thailand or wherever the labor is the cheapest, or pay for a quality hand build pedal made right here in the US? But, the most important factor is tone....and this nails it, magically! FWIW, I own the Wampler Pinnacle and Velvet Fuzz. They are nothing short of AMAZING.

    • @Casey_J96
      @Casey_J96 9 лет назад +1

      yeah i just bought a velvet fuzz and my brother lets me use his pinncale and ecstasy drive and theyre such great quality pedals.

    I've liked other demos of this pedal, but this sounded like a blown speaker. Recording problem?

    • @cmacksam
      @cmacksam 10 лет назад

      Obviously not a recording problem. Your clean sound is good. Perplexing.

  • @TimOttinger
    @TimOttinger 7 лет назад

    I'm not sure what I'm hearing.
    The unaffected signal is really low compared to the pedal even with the gain turned really low.
    So I think I'm hearing is a db boost pushing the heck out of the amp, and not the grit provided by the pedal. I wish you'd brought the volume down to unity (parity with the clean signal) and I heard the pedal's grit, not the pushed amp's grit.
    It did sound better on good speakers than on a laptop, to be sure.
    Wampler does good stuff. I'm just not sure that I actually heard his pedal in this demo.

    this or Joyo American Sound?

    • @auntjenifer7774
      @auntjenifer7774 6 лет назад

      Errik Wong * personally I went with the Joyo American sound, first off because the price, then the fact that this Wampler DOESN'T EVEN come close to the Les Luis, which ACTUALLY nails the Tweed sound perfectly ! Don't WASTE your money on the Wampler because the American sound sounds better than this wampler and the les Luis sounds better than all of THEM.

      @@auntjenifer7774 have you even tried the tweed 57 for you to give a recommendation? or is it all based on youtube surfing. this wampler tweed 57 is the best pedal I've owned period and has never left my board. Joyos are ok but due to the not-so-quality components can tend to be muffled and limited with the dynamic range. this wampler can go from transparent to whatever you want it to be and very amp like.

    • @kbbluesgreens74
      @kbbluesgreens74 6 лет назад

      I think a lot of it depends on the amp, guitar, and the volume you’re playing at. The louder you play the closer you’ll get to those sounds
