Wampler Triple Wreck Distortion Pedal - Mesa Boogie Rectifier
Love Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier amps - but can't afford one?
The Wampler Triple Wreck will get you pretty damn close to the real thing for a fraction of the price!!!!
Superb pedal - one of our favourites and getting harder to come by, sadly!!
The Triple Wreck, whilst predominantly designed for modern metal players, it can easily be used to dial in classic hard rock tones, amazing sustained solo tones, old school, nu metal... you name it... it can deliver. If however you're after a lower gain overdrive tone you're probably better looking through the fine collection of boutique overdrives Tone Masters has available.
TESTED AND IN FULL WORKING ORDER. SUPPLIED IN IT'S ORIGINAL BOX WITH INSTRUCTIONS AND PEDAL CANDY.
COSMETIC CONDITION IS MINT!

There are some really good videos on YouTube that enable you to hear why this pedal won awards for Brian (Wampler) and also why so many guitarists the world over use one.
Here is an overview of the Triple Wreck functions;
Volume:
The Volume control sets our overall effect’s output level, of which there is plenty to use.
While the Triple Wreck is more of a Distortion than overdrive, it can certainly be used to stack gain sounds into a dirty amp or another overdrive pedal so have a play with the volume control back & forth to find where it works best for you.
Hard/Brutal:
This two way toggle switch is used to select between two different voicings of the GAIN control. The HARD side is a more vintage rock/metal response with a relatively dark tonality. The BRUTAL side of the switch changes the responses to a very bright, sharp EQ range that sounds considerably more modern.
Gain:
This controls the amount of signal clipping & will produce a more saturated, distorted signal the more clockwise it’s rotation is turned.
Boost/Contour:
This function of the Deluxe Triple Wreck offers an additional control to re-shape the tonality of the pedal when the BOOST circuit is engaged. Wampler describe this as an intensity control, it isn’t a volume adjustment. It can be set to work like a more traditional BOOST circuit when the GAIN setting is turned down & in the higher gain ranges it can dial up some very fuzzy tones as well.
