Crazy train Solo Jason Hobbs Wampler pedal Pinnacle II "The brown Sound"

Just thought I'd put up a video of the Wampler pedals "Pinnacle II" used in a "more musical context" by playing crazy train solo. Really nice warm sounding pedal.
Using "CLEAN" channel on Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 100 along with the pinnacle pedal by Brian Wampler and also using Brian's analog echo, awesome combination. Thats it.
I created the backing track on a BOSS RC-50 loop station.

see my other videos as well for demos of this pedal and other wampler pedals.

guitar used in this video: Gibson Les Paul Standard honeyburst
Pickups: EMG 81/85
Amplifier: Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 100 clean channel

This is what Twelth Fret music store in Toronto, Canada had to say about this pedal:

Guitarists are always after the proverbial Holy Grail of pedals that are going to get them that elusive high gain mucho chunga sound. Weve seen our fair share of amazing products come through our doors and into your hands. With the Wampler Pinnacle, I am suffering from another Here-I-go-again syndrome. Just when I though I had heard it all, I came across Brian Wamplers amazing products. Brian Wamplers pedal mods and custom pedals have become legendary in the pro circles. Guitarists are always looking for distortion pedals that yield amp-like tones and have the dynamic overtones that only an amp and 4X12 cab can achieve. I stand corrected. The Pinnacle is a high gain overdrive/distortion that is voiced towards the Hot rodded Marshall/Bogner Ecstacy/Peavey 5150/ Soldano SLO100/ Mesa Engineering sound. In fact, its the pedal that gets the closest to the EVH Brown sound! Its masterfully made up of J-fet circuits peppered with high grade metal film resistors and diodes. Its true bypass design keeps everything neutral in the signal chain and is remarkably quiet even at gainiac level of distortion. Remarkably dynamic, the Pinnacle responds to the subtlest of volume knob adjustments and cleans up very nicely. It consists of Volume, Tone (high frequency roll off), Vintage/Modern switch, Contour (sweepable mid control), Gain (duh!!!), On/Off switch and a boost switch for solo boost or adding more snarl to the equation. Not only does this pedal sound amazing but it looks incredibly sexy as well. I can pretty much plug this sucker into any amp and get my sound from the cheesiest of transistor amps to the clean channel of my Koch Powertone and VHT Pitbull. With minor adjustments I was even able to get my trademark Gainiac/Captain Crunch approved tone and everything in between. Amazingly enough, there is a lot of gain on tapa lot even for me. There is enough gain here to choke a hungry Great White Shark. Yet in making such a fire breathing pedal, creator/alchemist boy Brian Wampler has managed to keep all the subtleties of the guitar and the dynamics of a tube amp while still keeping some amazing headroom levels. As we dont have any stock at the moment, delivery time is about 2-3 weeks on Wampler pedalstake it from a self-confessed pedal addict/gainiac, its totally worth the wait.

***Gainiac: definition Crunch monger, One who prefers excessive gain and volume levels associated with high performance amps like Soldano, Koch, Mesa, Bogner and Egnater amps. Known to strike fear in other less aggressive guitarists, Gainiacs thrive on a steady musical diet of Heavy Metal, Hard Rock, Death Metal, Thrash Metal and Shred/guitar instrumental music. They are often very picky about tone and are often not intimidated by Floyd Rose equipped instruments***

Do you have to install extra electronics for EMG pickups? You've got some fine gear, btw.

[jashobbsie]

@cbmatt97 yes, they come with the pickups...different pots.

cheers!
