The Wampler Hot Wired v2 is a versatile overdrive and distortion pedal designed in collaboration with renowned session guitarist Brent Mason. This pedal offers two channels, each with its own unique control set. Channel One provides a versatile overdrive from gentle breakup to full crunch, while Channel Two delivers a dirty, fat, and creamy distortion. Both channels can be combined for a huge sound.
Key technical specifications include:
- Handmade in the U.S.A.
- High-grade film capacitors and resistors selected for superior sound and
response
- Completely true bypass
- Power draw: 17mA
- Battery connection and 9V power jack (barrel plug like Boss)
- 2 separate pedals in one box, each with their own gain structure -
volume|tone|gain (clean blend on channel 1)
- Bass boost switch on each channel (2 extra stages)
- Dimensions: 4.5” x 4.5” (114.3mm x 114.3mm)
- Both channels can be used simultaneously for ultimate "stacking" tones
The Hot Wired v2 is built to Brent Mason's exact specifications and is suitable for a wide range of musical styles, from subtle overdrive to heavy distortion. It is a highly versatile pedal suitable for both studio and live performance use.
